Every year, from spring through late summer, AHS is inundated with teeny, tiny kittens! It’s Kitten Season, and over the next few months we will welcome hundreds of newborn kittens into our shelter. These babies require constant care and support, and they are the most fragile animals we serve. Our shelter staff members and dedicated foster caregivers are working around the clock to make sure these kittens grow big and strong.

Throughout Kitten Season (April-September), we will be working to raise funds and gather much-needed supplies to enable our team to help these kittens make their journey to adulthood.
Do you want to help us provide the critical support these kittens will need in the coming months? Consider becoming a Kitten Season sponsor! This year, we are offering four sponsorship opportunity levels:
