Kitten Shower
Kitten Season is Here! We're Expecting! How YOU can help kitties in need!
What is Kitten Season?
As cooler weather ends and the temperature begins to warm, many unaltered female cats are in heat. 60 days later they begin giving birth to litters of kittens. Many shelters, including our own, take in an overwhelming number of litters from May to September each year, however because we are in a warmer climate, we can see litters begin as early as March. These kittens need to be cared for in foster homes, need supplies that will help them to become healthy & strong adult cats and need extra love as this is the most fragile time in their lives.
If you are interested helping our kitties check out your opportunities below!
Become a 2023 Kitten Season Sponsor
Kitten Season is not only one of the most adorable times of the year, but can be an expensive one as well. Because we supply our Foster Homes with all the essentials they will need such as special food, playpens, heating pads, feeding bottles and more for up to 8-10 weeks, any donation would help! By becoming a sponsor, you can help us alleviate some of the cost of these supplies! Or, if you would like to learn how to make an even larger impact by giving the gift of Stock or a QCD, click HERE!

Become a Kitten Foster
We are always in need of new Foster homes for our kittens as we never know when the next litter will be coming in. If the Momma cat does not come in with a litter, then we need extra special homes that are willing to do Bottle Baby Feeding as well until the kittens are able to eat wet food.
If you are interested in fostering kittens, our Foster Coordinators can tell you everything you need to know, give you the supplies you will need and are available for questions while you care for them.
