Kitten Season Continues
Previously, I have written about kitten season, and why it is so lethal. There is really no part of the country that is immune to it. Kittens, born of feral cats, and born of cats people just don’t get around to, or care to spay, end up in shelters by the dozens during the spring and summer especially. There are just not enough homes for them all.
There are several kittens at Heard County Animal Control in Franklin, Georgia, who are absolutely beautiful, but are on the euthanization list for this week. They are all siblings.
There is still something wrong with the camera at the shelter. The photos were just taken a few days ago, not in 2004!

These kittens are slated for euthanization in just a few days from now! Please help!Please contact your favorite rescue or adopt. If you have a cat, or have one that tends to wander up to your house, do them a favor and spay or neuter them. There are programs that offer discounts for the ferals that are wandering around too. The more unwanted kittens there are, the more that are euthanized. The more cats that are not pregnant by accident, but because their people thought it would be a blessed event or their children would love kittens, the more kittens are euthanized too. A kitten that is purchased or taken as a “free kitten” also takes up a spot in a home that a shelter kitten would have received.
