A New Chapter: Farewell Harper, Hello New Foster Kittens | Cuteavalanche 24/7 Foster Cat Cam
Foster Harper updates Harper has been adopted!! We got word Saturday June 7th Harper (named Curly by the second Foster) had been adopted. We did not get any additional info about who adopted her, if there are other fosters with her, or if that new owner/family has any pets already, etc. As this was through Kitten Rescue their policies would require them to have or adopt a second kitten, so Harper should have a friend we just don't have the details. We wish her the best and of course if we hear anything mew, we'll pass it along https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fSW_lGIbla0&t=12s The Big Mews We're getting new kittens!! At the time of writing this, we expect to have new kitties showing up this evening (or late afternoon) somewhere around 5pm. They come from a litter of 4, we'll only take in 2 of the 4 and don't know which two will be heading our way. Amanda will be picking up the duo this evening from the East Valley shelter, where a shelter foster currently had them over night waiting for Kitten Rescue to responsd to their call for a foster. So get ready for the stream to kick in to LIVE mode this evening! - Join us for first looks! Wishlist Items That being said, we're pretty solid on KMR (kitten milk replacer) for now and our bigger need is Wet Food for when the kittens ween. We'd love to stock pile 3 or 4 cases as we're not sure how long the kittens will be with us. Amanda and the girls will be heading to Michigan mid July and its likely I'll be taking care of the kittens, but they would also be old enough to ween and move on to another foster right around the time of the trip. So we'll have to see if a new foster is available at that time. Our #1 askWellness Complete Health Pate Kitten Wet Cat Food, Natural, Protein-Rich, Grain Free, 3 Ounce, 24 Pack, (Chicken) Check out our wishlist: https://cuteavalanche.com/wishlist Clip of the Day https://www.youtube.com/shorts/L64YPNlTG28 Call for Volunteers If you can be cat Foster, this is the time of year to start. Shelters are over crowded and Kitten Season is in full swing. But since not eveyone can take on another cat in their home we have a need for some volunteers that can be done remotely! Video Editor - I'm looking for one or two video editors to help work on some very simple videos. Primarily vertical. These videos generally just need a trim, captions added, a music track and can be cut in any editing software. it's about 4 to 7 videos weekly and they might take 10 minutes each. Blog Writer! - I'd love to expand our blog to doing more than just the occasional update and can really use someone who can do research or has a decent amount of cat knowledge to help suggest and write one or two blog posts a month Fill out the form at the bottom of this page If you've got a skill and can help out on a weekly basis let me know or check out https://cuteavalanche.com/volunteer/ Well that's not Noice As a side note I logged into noice.com this morning to post about our new fosters to find a message from the CEO saying they we're shutting down. We've seen several platforms come and go in our 8 years of streaming and its always a sad day to say good bye to one. Noice was an ok platform, it was more gamer focussed so we didn't get a real foothold there. But should our 26 noice followers be out there, we hope you'll say hello and follow us on Twitch, YouTube or any of the other platforms. Noice did have a cool built in AI driven clipping tool that created tons of clips we never used LOL. I scrubbed through some of them but never found anything that seemed all that good. but again we're not gamers so it just took stabs in the dark. Fundraiser Updates Our Tiltify has bascily come to a crawl, and that's probably on me for not promoting it more. for now it stands at $480 out of $500 (our first tier goal). Now that we have new kittens arriving, I'll give it a little more love and focus, but for starters our Wishlist items of wet food is the higher priority. New Fun While we're loosing a feature we never really got to use, we gained something I think is super cool! Our YouTube Community page has gotten access to YouTube's new user submitted community posting feature! This is only availabe for Mobile users through the YouTube app Users can now go to our Channel in the YouTube app and you'll see a 'Visit Community' button Click that and you're taken to a social media style feed where you post text and a picture! We welcome you all to post pictures of your furpals, funny cat/dog/animal memes, and if you're a rescue or shelter, we'd love to see your adoptable animal listings. We'll do what we can to boost them as well. I'm setting up some challenges, so look for those prompts and post away! I believe you can post up to 5 pictures per post, and for now there's no limitation on how much you can post (to my knowledge). Desktop users sadly won't be able to see this feed currently, so make sure you have the youtube app if you want to join the fun and see what other people are posting!

WELCOME the New Kittens, NAMES, Call for Volunteers and more! – CuteAvalanche Recap June 23 2025 | Cuteavalanche 24/7 Foster Cat Cam
We’ve got new kittens in the house! Kitten Season is running full steam, and we’re so excited to have new little ones on the livestream. As always, we’re grateful for the opportunity to help these tiny floofs get the best possible start in life. Amanda picked them up earlier today as I started this post, and they’re settling into foster life beautifully. Screenshot We've got Names! Its actually beena. few days since I started this post and we got the kittens, and I can now share with you that the kittens are doing well after a weird first few days. When the floofy duo came to us, we got some weird updates and mixed signals. Originally we were told they were 2 to 3 weeks old, and the reality was they were much closer to 4 weeks old, however they were also very dehydrated. On top of the the fosters that were handing them off told us that the kittens were already using the litter box, and as a sidenote the shelter had some food for us. What we didn't realize was that food was two cans of wet food, which was odd indeed. The first two days the kittens barely ate and I have to admit I thought they weren't long for this world. Amanda made the descision to try and bottle feed them, in spite of the knowledge that they apparently were already eating wet food. After a few goes of it, they did in fact start to bottle feed. The girl more so than her brother, he does seem to be eating wet food but is taking the bottle a little as well. So, now that things seem to be going well I proudly introduce Sherlock and Enola. Inspire of course by the famous Detectives. Now we just have to settle on a litter tag - I'm taking suggestions, so far I have #MysteryKittens or #221BKittens for holmes Baker street address Add your Litter Tag suggestions in the comments below! MISSED SATURDAYS CAT CHAT? WATCH SAM'S KITTEN RECAP https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_x0H5Q_CGc Wishlist Updates With the new arrivals here, we’re shifting our focus to prepping for the weeks ahead. Right now we’re in good shape on KMR (kitten milk replacer), but since the're already moving onfrom the bottle wet food is going to become the big need as they start to wean. We'd love to stock up on 3 or 4 cases to make sure we’re fully covered. As a reminder, Amanda and the girls will be heading to Michigan mid-July. Depending on how things go, either I’ll continue to foster during their trip or we may hand off the kittens to another available foster. We’ll keep everyone posted!

Sam Proof Talks CuteAvalanche on The Afluencer Podcast | Cuteavalanche 24/7 Foster Cat Cam
CuteAvalanche founder Sam Proof sat down with Brett Owens, founder of Afluencer, for the Afluencer Podcast to talk about livestreaming, content creation, and building a brand with purpose. From turning a one-phone Facebook stream into a multi-platform rescue project to dreaming of a future Cat Café, Sam covered it all. 🎧 Listen to the full episode on YouTube or Spotify! Our first kittens ... I literally streamed to Facebook for as long as it would go, which was like eight hours. Sam Proof https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZu4EYzsyWs How CuteAvalanche Started Seven years ago we got our first kittens and I like literally my livestream setup was—we had a pen that the kittens were in and I put a phone on top of it and streamed to Facebook for as long as it would go. Sam's background as a content creator started in the early internet days—way before YouTube existed. A chance Craigslist ad led him into the world of livestreaming, and years later, his wife Amanda wanted to start fostering kittens. Sam had one condition: “Only if I can livestream them.” That was the start of CuteAvalanche. What began as a way to stay creative turned into a full-blown cat rescue effort and livestreaming brand—starting with a phone, a pen, and a few kittens. Growing on Shaky Platforms We grew really, really fast... and then Mixer closed. After early success on Facebook, CuteAvalanche exploded on Mixer, especially after a pregnant mama cat gave birth live on stream and landed them on Mixer's front page. But when Mixer suddenly shut down, the team had to pivot. That experience led Sam to embrace multi-streaming as a core strategy. These days, CuteAvalanche streams to 10+ platforms at once, with Twitch and YouTube being the main hubs. 📺 Watch the 24/7 Cat Cam on Twitch at https://www.twitch.tv/cuteavalanche subscribe on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/cuteavalanche?sub_confirmation=1 Community Is Everything Our marketing strategies are community growth—it’s all word of mouth. The success of CuteAvalanche isn’t just about kittens—though those help! It’s about people. Twitch raids, fan art, social shares, and word of mouth have all helped the community grow. Sam highlighted how larger streamers raiding CuteAvalanche exposed them to thousands of new viewers. Sam also shared how implementing mid-roll ads on Twitch significantly reduced drop-off after raids. Instead of hitting people with a pre-roll ad the second they arrived, viewers got to enjoy the stream first—and stayed longer as a result. Collabs, Cats, and Creative Projects Most of our emotes and merch have been drawn live on stream. Sam talked about working with guest artists like Insomnia Doodle, who creates emotes and merch designs during live art streams. These kinds of collaborations not only keep things fresh, but strengthen bonds with the community. CuteAvalanche also launched their own podcast, Just Kitten Around, as a low-barrier way to collaborate with other cat people—inviting guests to chat about their cat-related work and passions. 🧶 Want to collab or be on our podcast? Reach out at cuteavalanche@gmail.com or use the contact form at https://cuteavalanche.com Helping Other Rescues We launched our Foster Friends collab so we could help other people get their cats adopted. From Giving Tuesday gift bags to Best Friends Animal Society fundraisers and a VidCon pop-up Cat Café, CuteAvalanche continues to support other rescuers. During the Super Mewl livestream event, Sam included a halftime segment highlighting adoptable cats from other fosters—something they hope to continue monthly. 🐾 Are you a rescue or foster who wants to feature your adoptable cats? Learn more and submit at https://cuteavalanche.com/fosterfriends What’s Next for CuteAvalanche We’re limited by space, and that’s why we want to open a Cat Café. Right now, the fosters live in CuteAvalanche’s master bedroom. Space and funding are the biggest limitations—and opening a Cat Café would be a game-changer. It would mean more cats rescued, more community interaction, and more opportunities to educate and entertain. 😻 Help make it happen! Donate to our fundraiser at https://cuteavalanche.com/give2025 The next big livestream milestone is Meowlloween, our fan-favorite interactive game returning in October. Mark your calendars, because it’s a frightfully fun way to support rescue work! Listen In & Get Involved Whether you're a cat lover, a livestreaming nerd, or someone thinking about starting your own rescue, this episode of the Afluencer Podcast gives a real behind-the-scenes look at how CuteAvalanche grew into what it is today. 🖤 Got thoughts?
