Patch Pets: Meet the Kitties—All 894 of Them

The Animal Rescue League has plenty of cats and kittens up for adoption.

If you’ve ever thought about getting a cat or kitten or adding to your existing pet family, now is the time. The Animal Rescue League had a record setting August by taking in 1,249 animals—894 of them cats or kittens. 

These are records we don’t like to set. What we would like to see is a record number of our animals find their forever home and that can only happen if nice people open their home and hearts.

There is no adoption fee for cats more than 6 months of age and kittens are two for $50. All cats have been tested for FELV/FIV, are already spayed or neutered, up to date on vaccines, microchipped and have received flea and worm treatments. You also get a bag of food and half off the first vet visit.
