🐾 Kitten Season is Right Around the Corner… and we’re preparing now! 🐾
That time of year is quickly approaching, and we are already beginning to see kittens coming in from all directions. Some are abandoned, some arrive with their nursing moms, and others are found by kind community members who just need help caring for them.
Right now, we have:
🐱 Two nursing moms in foster care
• One amazing mama caring for 7 kittens — 5 of her own plus 2 she took in after their mom passed away 💔➡️❤️
• Another devoted mom caring for 5 kittens
And this is just the beginning… we are already in communication with several others who will likely be needing help very soon.
Kitten season is one of the most demanding times of the year for animal shelters and rescues. It takes a huge toll on our staff, fosters, and volunteers. There are late nights, early mornings, and often someone heading home with bottle babies that need round-the-clock care.
💛 How you can help us prepare:
🍼 Donate much-needed supplies:
• Dry kitten food (Purina preferred)
• Canned kitten food
• Clumping cat litter
• Nursing supplies (bottles & special ni***es)
• Baby wipes
• Heating pads
🏡 Become a foster:
Another HUGE need during kitten season is foster homes. Giving these animals a place to stay in a home environment instead of the shelter makes a world of difference in their health and development.
We are doing okay right now, but we know the need is coming quickly — so we are starting to accept foster applications now to be prepared.

Thank you for always stepping up for our animals — we truly couldn’t do this without you. 🐾💛
Please note that these kittens are not available yet. We will not be placing holds on them either. We will announce when they are adoptable.
