The Kittens are Coming!

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.

To help raise funds for all of those babies, we’ll be hosting our 12th Annual Kitten Shower, presented by The Serendipity Fund on Saturday, May 9th from 11:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. at the AHS shelter (124 W. Anderson Lane). This kitten-themed, family-friendly community event features vendors, treats, crafts & activities, and of course adorable adoptable kittens.

Kitten Shower is free to attend, or you can upgrade your experience with a V.I.P. (Very Important Purrson) ticket. Our V.I.P attendees will receive a commemorative gift and other special perks.
