June is Adopt a Cat Month 💜
While it’s exciting to think about bringing a new kitty home, it’s also happens to be “kitten season”.
Kitten season, typically spanning from March to October, is a critical period for animal shelters. If you find a litter of kittens, your first instinct might be to scoop them up and take them to a shelter, but that’s not always the best idea.
Often, their mother is just out securing food or finding a new spot. Kittens have the best chance of survival with their mothers and many shelters don’t have the resources to care for newborns kittens.
So, if you find a litter, don’t be KitNapper! It’s best to observe from a distance.
