Kittens, Kittens, Kittens!



As sure as the forsythia and the daffodils bloom, the Spring also brings scores of kittens to our shelter.

At the moment, we have close to two dozen at the shelter and more on the way. The kittens are varied in ages but in the next few weeks the first batch will be ready for adoption. Call us soon to arrange a day to come down to the shelter and peek in our kitten room. We will take deposits and stay in touch with you until your kitten is able to be taken home.

Please keep in mind usually the young mother is abandoned too. At a safe time, after the kittens are weaned, we will have the mom spayed. Please consider checking out these cats too.

PLANT AND BAKE SALE - MAY 7 - SATURDAY

Here is your chance to treat yourself (or Mom) to some affordable yummy food and/or beautiful plants.

Stop by Lisais Market in Chester after 10:00 am and we will be there.

All funds raised will go towards TARPS funding. Thank you for all you can give.

While you're in Chester swing by the shelter on Route 103. You will see we are improving things little by little, but there is such a great need. If you would like to give but can not, please think about volunteering. Let us know what you excel at, we're sure there is something here that can benefit from your talents.
