The Lead-Up to Kitten Season

The peak time for availability of adoptable kittens (a.k.a. “Kitten Season”) is from about May through September.

But behind the scenes, things start much sooner. We already have multiple newly-born litters in foster care, some with moms and some, sadly, without.

Marcee, pictured here, came into our center hugely pregnant on March 5. We were able to secure a wonderfully experienced foster volunteer who got Marcee all cozy and settled — and the six nuggets in the photo arrived about 48 hours later.
