June is National Adopt-A-Cat Month

Submitted by Hinsdale Humane Society.

Hinsdale, IL — Throughout June, Hinsdale Humane Society is celebrating national Adopt-A-Cat Month, which is an opportunity to draw attention to shelter kittens and cats available for adoption.

Kitten season runs from April through November, and more than 20 are currently residing in HHS foster homes and will soon return to the shelter to be adopted.

During kitten season, HHS may care for as many as 50 kittens at one time. As always, there are also adolescent and adult cats waiting for a loving home. Approximately 450 felines are adopted each year from HHS.

"Now is the perfect time to adopt a feline,” said Jennifer Vlazny, HHS Operations Manager. “You're not only giving a homeless animal a wonderful forever home, you're also getting a loving companion in return".

In conjunction with Adopt-A-Cat Month, individuals and families adopting a kitten or cat will receive a special gift bag with feline treats and toys. All feline adopters are eligible to enter a raffle with a drawing at the end of June, including items such as a feline gift basket, kitty condos, and a cat bed.

HHS encourages potential feline adopters to visit the shelter during business hours and meet all of the animals waiting for their forever families. A complete listing of kittens and cats available for adoption is available at hinsdalehumanesociety.org For additional information, call the shelter at (630) 323-5630.
