June Is Adopt A Cat Month!

Approximately 4 million cats end up in shelters every year, including thousands born every spring and summer during “kitten season.” To help promote adoptions of these fun, affectionate animals, The American Humane celebrates Adopt-A-Cat Month each June.

PAAW’s foster homes are brimming with cats and kittens of every color, age and personality just waiting for a loving home. Whether you prefer young and frisky or mature and mellow, you’re sure to find the perfect cat companion during Adopt-A-Cat Month!

Come browse our Petfinder or PetTango adoption pages to see all the kittens and cats we have available for adoption.
