National Adopt A Cat Month In June
June is National Adopt a Cat Month and it's the perfect month to provide a beautiful feline with a loving furr-ever home since it's also National Homeownership Month. Homes aren't just for people! Cats love having a nice home too!
Spring season is known as "kitten season" with many kitties born and abandoned at shelters, adding to the millions of cats already in shelters hoping for their furr-ever homes. Your local shelter most likely has a gaziilion cute, cuddly newborns, in addition to all the mellow, older cats and everything in between.
