Get Ready to Rock with Half Price Cats & Kittens
> Cats and kittens for adoption
EATONTOWN, NJ, September 1, 2010 – With over 300 purring and prowling felines at the Monmouth County SPCA it seems only fitting to turn them loose with Kittenpalooza. “Whether you are looking for a kitten or cat we have them in all shapes, sizes and colors just waiting to be adopted”, said Francesca Alexander, MCSPCA Community Cat Coordinator.
Sadly the summer ends as usual at the MCSPCA with cat overpopulation. As kitten season comes to an end, shelters traditionally find themselves overcrowded with more cats and kittens than adopters. This year we decided to have a month long celebration to find these purrfectly wonderful felines their forever homes. During the months of September and October the adoption price of cats and kittens has been clawed in half. Each adoption fee includes spay/neuter, rabies, distemper vaccinations, deworming, flea treatment, FIV/FeLV testing and a microchip.
Looking for a cat that is ready to rock with you or a lap cat to sit and enjoy some easy listening music? Ms. Alexander advises that “It is best to go with an adult cat since they already have their personality established. Kittens develop their personality over time so it’s very difficult to predict what they will be like as an adult.”
While getting the cats that are already here adopted is a top priority, we believe that educating the public to spay/neuter their cats with the same diligence that is paid to dogs would help put an end to kitten season. “Our goal is to have no more homeless pets, so that means no more kittens being born outside.” added Alexander. The vision of the Alley Cat prowling the neighborhood nightly is not an uncommon one, but often that cat hasn’t been spayed or neutered. Before you know it, one innocent moonlight stroll has resulted in an unwanted litter of kittens. The MCSPCA Vogel Spay/Neuter Clinic offers low cost spay and neutering. If you would like more information or would like to schedule an appointment, please call 732-542-3125.
