Kitten season is here… and that means tiny paws, sleepless nights, bottle babies, medical care, and a whole lot of love. It also means rescue organizations like Billy the Kidden Rescue are stepping up in a BIG way to save the most vulnerable lives.
That’s why we’re so excited to invite you to our BTKR Kitten Shower + the Sand & Sea Meow’ket—a special event filled with rescue, community, shopping, and of course… cats 🐾
This event is more than just a celebration—it’s a way for our community to come together and help prepare for the busiest rescue season of the year.
What is a Kitten Shower?
Think of it like a baby shower… but for kittens 😻
Every spring and summer, shelters and rescues are flooded with orphaned, abandoned, and vulnerable kittens needing around-the-clock care. Formula, bottles, heating pads, wet food, litter, medical care—it adds up fast.
A Kitten Shower helps us stock up on the essentials needed to save lives before the flood of kittens arrives.
Welcome to the Sand & Sea Meow’ket 🌊
Alongside the Kitten Shower, we’re bringing you the Sand & Sea Meow’ket—a fun and cozy cat-loving marketplace featuring local artists and all the cat-themed gift items your heart could want. Think jewelry, buttons, magnets, decorations, catnip kickers, and so much more!
Come shop, support small businesses, and help rescue cats all in one place.
Because honestly… retail therapy is better with cats.

A Sneak Peek of Sand & Sea Cat Lounge
This is also your chance to get a closer look at Sand & Sea Cat Lounge—our beautiful new safe harbor for adoptable rescue cats right here in Virginia Beach.
Billy the Kidden Rescue has partnered with Katie Cats Sims, owner of Sand & Sea Cat Lounge, to create a peaceful coastal space where guests can come relax, visit for a bit, and meet some of our adoptable kitties living in the lounge.
Built with love and inspired by rescue cats like Tom-Tom, this space was designed to help cats heal, socialize, and hopefully meet their forever families.
This dream has been years in the making… and we can’t wait to share it with you.
