Thank you to everyone who pawrticipated in our virtual Kitten Shower in Yakima County by donating essential supplies to help kittens thrive to adulthood and keep their mamas strong.
Kitten Season in the Yakima Valley typically runs from May through October where, as the weather warms, unaltered female cats go into heat. Female cats can have up to three litters per year with an average of four to eight kittens per litter, those kittens can reproduce and have their first litter at just four months of age; this fast reproduction cycle leads to a boom in the kitten population, overwhelming any cat caretaker who then turns to our area shelter and rescues for help.
It's never too late to help a pet in need, simply visit our Amazon wish list which has a comprehensive list of items needed by our partners and the individual caretakers we serve, or make a monetary donation to support these life-saving efforts today so we can fill supply needs!
Participating groups included:
Pawsitive Alliance
Underground Community Cat Rescue
Yakima Humane Society (Amazon wish list)
Yakima Valley Pet Rescue (wish list)
PS Kittens are sweet but pet overpopulation is ugly; please spay or neuter your cat and dog today! Information on low-cost and spay and neuter services can also be found on our Spay/Neuter Help page.
