The Kitten Academy is a kitten-fostering organization run by a couple in Illinois. Chris ([[FanNickname Mister Academy]]) and Deepa ([[OnlyKnownByInitials DJ]]) Jansen are [[KindHeartedCatLover Kindhearted Cat Lovers]] who've turned two rooms in their house into "classrooms" for kittens to [[BuffySpeak learn how to cat]]. They host a YouTube livestream that runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, in both rooms (provided they have enough kittens to populate both). Saturdays at 10 am [[IncrediblyLamePun KATZ]] (Kitten Academy Time Zone; that is, Central Time) they host a special Mailbag where they open up letters and gifts sent to the kittens by their dedicated fans.

* HeroOfAnotherStory: The good folks at On Angels' Wings, the nearby pet-rescue center that provides the Academy with new kittens and/or momcats.

* FakePregnancy: In late 2017, the Academy had a rash of supposed "momcats" who turned out to not be pregnant at all. One (Filbert) was actually male, while a couple others (Cashew and Quiche) were just pudgy. Yet another one never even made it onto the livestream before the ruse was discovered. KA fans went along with the fun, and claimed that the Academy was [[CrowningMomentOfFunny so much fun that cats were faking pregnancies to get in]].
