Solve this math problem: Your kitten can get pregnant as early as 4 months of age. If she has 6 female kittens, and those kittens get pregnant at 4 months, how many kittens will you have in two years?
The answer – TOO MANY!
Thousands of pets die in our local shelter each year. Unwanted puppies and kittens by the hundreds are dropped off at the shelter every breeding season. Most will die there. All because unsterilized pets are free to roam and breed.
Don’t be a part of the problem. Help us find the solution.
