Kitten season is here and, during this critical time, many litters of stray, abandoned and orphaned baby kittens — newborn to less than 6 weeks old — are brought to Women’s Animal Center needing specialized care to survive, thrive and grow.
The center needs additional kitten foster volunteers to help with bottle-feeding these shelter kittens and caring for them in their homes until they’re ready to be adopted into forever homes.
Women’s Animal Center, 3839 Richlieu Road, Bensalem, will provide a training session to help volunteers be successful foster parents, as well as a foster starter kit with kitten care supplies. While fostering is a temporary commitment, it is a lifesaving one.
Foster program details and signup/application can be found at womensanimalcenter.org/our-animal-shelter/foster-shelter-animal. Monetary donations to help the center purchase kitten foster kits for volunteers to care for the kittens are accepted at form-renderer-app.donorperfect.io/give/womens-animal-center/foster-kitten-supplies.
