June is ADOPT a cat Month

While June is officially designated Adopt-A-Cat Month, by the looks of your cat room, every month should be Adopt-A-Cat Month.  Every cat condo is full of personable adult cats just waiting for that special someone to come by and say, "That's the cat!  I love him (or her)."  And our inside lobby showcase windows are teeming with kittens!    Cute, rambunctious, "Take Me, Take Me" kittens.  

We are hoping that the special event designation will increase adoptions at the League.  In honor of the national event, the League has waived cat fees.  But, that does not mean that there are FREE cats -- there's no such thing.   Food, bowls, toys, vet visits, scratching posts, litter boxes AND lots and lots of kitty litter, veterinarian visits and more add up quickly.   Taking in a cat or kitten is a lifetime commitment that comes with financial responsibilities and emotional bonds.   People lucky enough to share their lives with a cat, or two (or more), wouldn't have it any other way.  The companionship, the love, and the humor offered by a cat is beyond compare.  Come by the League and celebrate Adopt-A-Cat Month.
