Celebrating 20K on Twitch and Welcoming New Fosters – Weekly Recap | Cuteavalanche 24/7 Foster Cat Cam
What a week it’s been! From hitting major follower milestones to welcoming not one but two new foster kittens, the CuteAvalanche community has been buzzing with excitement. Let’s dive into the highlights and see what’s coming up next! Milestones Galore We’re thrilled to share some incredible milestones from across our platforms: Twitch: We just hit 20,000 followers! 🎉 YouNow: Our channel reached 1,000 followers—thank you for your support! DLive: We’re closing in on 3,000 followers (currently at 2,800). YouTube: We’re at 2,489 subscribers and counting! These milestones wouldn’t be possible without your support. Let’s keep the momentum going—follow, subscribe, and share to help us reach even bigger goals! While Twitch is always our main homebase growing our YouTube channel could make our discoverability boom - so please, if you haven't already Subscribe to our YouTube channel and watch some videos there. St. Catricks Day is Here! Our annual St. Catricks Day event is officially underway! This marks the 4th or 5th year of our Rainbow Hunt, and we’re excited to bring even more fun and rewards to the table. Whether you’re chasing rainbows, collecting Shamrocks, or dodging the mischievous Leopardchaun, there’s something for everyone. The event runs until the end of March, so don’t miss out! Join us on Twitch or YouTube to play. Fundraiser Update Our Tiltify fundraiser has hit a bit of a stall at $200, but we’re grateful for the additional $100 donated outside the campaign. Every dollar helps us support animal rescues, transport fosters, and provide food for community feeders. If you’d like to contribute, you can donate here: cuteavalanche.com/give2025. Urgent: Help Us Save Our Videos! Both Twitch and Facebook have announced major changes to their video storage policies. Twitch is removing Highlights, and Facebook is removing Past Broadcasts. This means we could lose dozens of terabytes of precious video content. We’re working hard to download and save everything, but we need your help! We’ve added hard drives to our Amazon Wishlist: cuteavalanche.com/wishlist. We’d love to secure at least 4 drives to start, but we’re not even sure if that’ll be enough. If you’re able to contribute, it would mean the world to us—and to the animals we help. Meet Sophie and Simon, Our New Foster Kittens We’re excited to introduce our newest foster kittens, Sophie and Simon! Sophie is a 2-week-old dilute tortie named after the beloved character from The BFG by Roald Dahl. She was brought to us first, and shortly after, Simon arrived at the shelter with two other siblings. Simon is thought to be from the same litter, but he’s a bit underweight and slower in development. It’s possible he hasn’t been eating well or is from a separate litter born to the same colony but by a different mom. Both kittens are adorable, and we’re doing everything we can to help them thrive. Amanda wants to keep the kittens in the living room, which has made streaming them a bit of a technical challenge. Our main streaming PC is in the bedroom, and running a camera cable to the living room just isn’t feasible. To solve this, I’ve decided to buy a mini PC for about $150 using my own birthday gift cards. This will allow us to set up a 24/7 stream with night vision so you can enjoy all the kitten cuteness! If you’d like to help chip in for the cost of the mini PC, you can send a gift card from our Wishlist with a memo that it’s for the mini PC. For our YouTube friends, SuperChats or SuperThanks with a similar message would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all—we’ll get you as much of this cuteness as possible while these little ones are with us! (Note: They’ll only be with us for a handful of weeks. Once they hit 8 weeks old, Amanda will be passing them off to another foster.) Upcoming Chats Join us for an exclusive YouTube chat this Thursday at 10 AM PST: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nMzQgCjOyQ This week, we won’t have a Saturday chat, so don’t miss the Thursday session! How You Can Help Donate to Our Fundraiser: cuteavalanche.com/give2025. Support Our Video Archive Effort: Purchase a hard drive from our Wishlist: cuteavalanche.com/wishlist. Help with the Mini PC: Send a gift card from our Wishlist or use SuperChat/SuperThanks on YouTube with a note for the mini PC. Join the St. Catricks Day Fun: Play the Rainbow Hunt on Twitch or YouTube. Subscribe and Follow: Help us hit our next milestones on Twitch, YouTube, YouNow, and DLive. Thank you for being part of the CuteAvalanche community. Together, we’re making a difference for animals in need—one milestone, one foster, and one purr at a time!
Sophie, Simon, and St. Catricks Day Updates – Weekly Recap | Cuteavalanche 24/7 Foster Cat Cam
This week was all about tiny paws, technical fixes, and rallying the community to save our precious video archives. Let’s dive into the latest news! Foster Kitten Update: Sophie & Simon Our two little fosters, Sophie and Simon, are now 3 weeks old! Both are eating well and steadily gaining weight. Sophie has had some minor constipation issues, but she’s still thriving and remains ahead of Simon in weight. For now, their days are all about eat, sleep, repeat—though we’re sure they’ll start causing chaos soon enough! You can watch their adorable (if uneventful) antics on our 24/7 live stream in the living room. Big thanks to everyone who helped us get the mini PC set up—your support means we can share every sleepy yawn and wobbly step!

Another week, another round of whisker-filled wins and updates! Let’s dive into the highlights, from a new YouTube milestones to kitten chaos and everything in between. Before we get into it, quick reminder we are still pushing to raise $500 for our Kitten Season fundraiser, even a dollar helps. But check out below, we added some fun rewards to entice donation! Donate Here Milestones: 2500 YouTube Subscribers and Counting! 🎉 CLAWSOME NEWS: We’ve officially hit 2,500 YouTube subscribers! Thank you to everyone who’s joined the CuteAvalanche family.

Members get exclusive perks like: Access to thousands of hours of raw footage from past live streams. Chat archives so you never miss a moment of the fun. Behind-the-scenes content and early updates. 👉 Become a Member Race Against Time: Saving Our Video Archives Twitch and Facebook are tightening their video storage policies, and we’re scrambling to save years of precious content. Both Twitch and Facebook have cracked down on their video storage policies, which will delete 7 years of livestream archives. We're moving over those archives as fast as possible. However, while Twitch makes this an easy process, Facebook only gives us the ability to download past broadcasts... and with our internet we can't upload them nearly as fast as download. So we've added some hard drives to our Amazon Wishlist to help store them as we try to move everything over. Twitch: Highlights are easier to download, but we need storage space—fast. Facebook: Past broadcasts are a nightmare to upload with our slow internet. How You Can Help: We’ve added hard drives to our Amazon Wishlist to store these memories. Every drive gets us closer to saving our furry legacy:👉 cuteavalanche.com/wishlist For right now, as these are raw archives often with hours and hours of not much happening we're uploading the majority of those archives as unlisted, until we can cut out the best parts and upload those separately as clips. However we will make those archives available as a YouTube Members Only perk - Members-Only Archive Fundraiser Updates: Churus, Cat Ears, and BeanBoozle Chaos Our Tiltify campaign is inching closer to the halfway mark at $215 of $500! Recent Donation Shoutout: Julie R. donated to spoil Bear and Moose with a Churu treat. Watch them lick their chops in a video coming soon to our Instagram, YouTube Shorts, and TikTok! 🐾 (Spoiler: They loved it.)Thank you Julie! We added some fun rewards to our Kitten Season Tiltify Fundraiser, so now you can support our foster kittens AND make Sam do some dumb stuff, or reward our cats with treats. More rewards to come but here's what we have currently - and look for group stretch goals on the campaign as well https://youtu.be/d7ZIp5_jOv0?si=XfpH74vRFJm1lKd3 New Rewards to Unlock: 🐱 $15: Give a house cat a Churu treat (live during a chat!). 🎧 $25: Make Sam wear cat ears for 5 minutes on stream. 🤢 $30: Sam and Amanda (maybe) take the BeanBoozle challenge.

Hans: Gifted a card that Amanda used to stock up on KMR, wet food, and dry food for Sophie and Simon. Urgent Needs: Hard drives, KMR, and kitten food are still top priorities.

Onver the weekend we moved them from the carrier to a large crate/enclosure where they have a bunch of room to run around. They got their first litter box, so far Sophie has certainly figured it out. Not positive about Simon, but at the same time we're not seeing big messes outside the litter box. Upgraded Digs: They’ve moved to a larger enclosure—more space for wobbly adventures! Feeding Time: Watch Amanda bottle-feed Simon in this heartwarming clip: Bottle Feeding Clip. Cuteness Overload: Check out their latest pics below Get your fill of floof and cuteness with these pictures of Simon and Sophie Members-Only Alert: Catch the full Caturday Chat playback (including sleepy kitten antics) as a YouTube Member:👉 Members-Only Archive Be prepared the kittens won't be with us too much longer! If you missed last weeks Cat Chat, Amanda explained that once the kittens ween from milk to wet food (within the next 2 weeks or so), they'll be ready to head off to another foster. Assuming a foster is available, Sophie and Simin could be saying goodby before you know it! So get your fill of their cuteness on the livestream and with some pics below St. Catricks Day Fixes & Leaderboard All day today March 17th, at least once an hour the Rainbow cat will show up. I've made this a part of routine and in the future years every St Catrick's day (or March 17th) the same things will happen. So it's a big day for hunting Shamrocks but beware the Leopardchaun. Here’s the latest leaderboard as of today: Cgeffre might have a strong lead, but remember you only need to be in the top 10 to get 1/10th of the rewards (aka the Pot of Purrs)! You only need to find a handful of shamrock to get in - Find the rules in St. Catricks Day Event User Guide: cuteavalanche.com/st-catricks-day-event-user-guide.
