more than 2,700 animals who come

lives of homeless pets and help people

Can we have a slumber pawty?! Kitten season has sprung, and we have kittens who need a place to crash for a few weeks…will you help?
Found kittens outside? Don’t Kit-Nap!
Tiny kittens’ best chance of survival is typically to stay with their mothers, especially if they are under 6 weeks old. If the kittens are not injured or critically ill, it is often best to leave them where they are, even if you don’t see a mama cat.
