Kitten Shower

September 13 @ 11:00 am - September 14 @ 5:00 pm

Guest are invited to the Adoption Event and Supply drive!

Kitten Season is still here! We’ve cared for thousands of kittens this year and anticipate hundred more to come into the shelter needing medical treatment, nourishment, and lots of TLC. Join us on Friday, September 13 and Saturday, September 14 from 11 am – 4 pm for Greenhill’s Kitten Shower Adoption Event and Supply Drive. Visitors are invited to meet numerous kittens looking for their fur-ever homes, learn about becoming a volunteer or foster family and enjoy some serious kitten cuddles!

Guests are invited to bring an item from our Wish List. The wish list items labeled for our Kitten Shower are vital supplies Greenhill needs to help care for these kittens. Last year, Greenhill’s foster families cared for 434 kittens and the number is expected to increase this year.

See items needed on our Amazon wish list and Chewy Wish list. Our high needs items are:

See all available cats up for adoption here. All adoptions are on a first come, first serve basis with meet and greets every day from 11am – 4pm. All kitten and adult cat adoptions include: a physical exam and behavioral evaluation by a trained staff, spay/neuter surgery, vaccinations, flea and worm treatment, a collar and ID tag, pre-adoption consultation, trackable microchip, 30 day trial of pet insurance, post-adoption support. All cats must be transported home in a carrier (available to purchase for $5) and if it is not a good fit, new pets can be returned to Greenhill at any time.

Learn more about becoming a foster family here. Greenhill provides the needed supplies to the foster families. Very young kittens are first fostered by one of our 95 foster care families until the kittens are old enough to be adopted. This is typically between 4 to 8 weeks of age after getting vaccinated and spayed or neutered. Many kittens are so young their eyes are not yet open, and they need to be bottle fed every two hours. They also require gentle handling and socialization. This helps to build their confidence and comfort around people.
