It was officially the Feline Club but everyone called it Sophie's Kitten Shelter. It was founded by male doms to be a place to indulge kitten girl fantasies. At first they wondered if a lesbian domme would be able to run the place to their satisfaction but Sophie turned out to be perfect for the job.
She made sure that there were always between ten and twenty kittens working on site. She had contacts in the high schools for potential slave girls that were lazy and unmotivated. They were the sort of girls that adapted best to the kitten girl way of life. The club members preferred petite small breasted kittens but Sophie chose more for cute pliable personalities.
When a candidate turned eighteen and accepted an offer to become a kitten girl she was brought to the dormitory. There she was stripped and had the hair below her neck removed. The hair on her head was cut in a short style and maybe dyed, Her face and body were painted to create the kitten girl illusion. She was outfitted with a cat ear headband, a collar with a tag that indicated she belonged to the Feline Club, special mitts that she couldn't remove that transformed her hands into soft paws, a butt plug with a fluffy tail, and soft socks. She was given her kitten name that she was expected to respond to whenever Sophie or her personal slave, Amelia, used it. Sophia and Amelia only addressed them by their kitten names.
Every morning at nine Sophie and Amelia woke the kittens from the small round mattresses in the dormitory where they slept curled up. The low door to the client area was opened up and the kittens crawled out and went to the food bowls with their kitten names on them. Each kitten was served her breakfast, the first of her two daily meals. Each kitten was given her own individual diet to match her nutritional and health needs. Any eating from another kitten's bowl would get a quick hard smack with Sophie's stick. The food was a mash of fish and grains and vegetables. It also contained enervating drugs. Drugging slaves wasn't usual in Briarton but anxious kittens would be detrimental to the purpose of the Shelter. There was a big tub of water for the kittens to drink from.
