Help us care for more than 200 homeless kittens!
As we begin to near "Kitten Season", HSoP wants to be prepared for the orphaned kittens that need our help. HSoP takes in many kittens between April and October, and we often receive kittens who are sick, injured, and in desperate need of help. With your assistance, we can be ready to care for all of the tiny kittens who need us!
To help make sure we have all of the necessary supplies for Kitten Season, we're throwing ourselves a kitten shower! If you're wondering what a kitten shower is, it looks and functions a lot like a baby shower. The goal is to collect plenty of supply donations that will carry us through to the end of this year's kitten season. The best part of all this? You're invited! Our kitten shower is on Sunday, May 15th from 1:00-4:00pm at the 1912 Center Great Room in Moscow.
We will have fun kitten-themed games, adorable coloring pages, educational information, and real baby kittens from HSoP. You'll get to watch as neonatal kittens are bottle-fed, observe the funny interactions between kitten siblings, and see first-hand how your contribution makes a difference for our small and furry friends. Please consider joining us at our annual kitten shower! For entrance, we ask for a $5 donation or an item from our kitten supply wish list. Our 2022 Kitten Shower has been generously sponsored by our friends at Moscow Realty. Thank you, Moscow Realty, for ensuring that 100% of proceeds get to benefit our pets!

What is Kitten Season?
As the weather warms, dozens of kittens begin to arrive at HSoP. This typically starts when nights are no longer below freezing and will continue until it is freezing at night again. Kitten Season tends to begin in April and can last until October or November. Due to the warmer weather, more cats roam freely outside. Many outdoor cats are not spayed/neutered, so they are looking for mates. Cats are seasonally polyestrous, meaning they can have multiple heat cycles during their breeding season. Breeding season for cats is during warmer weather and longer daylight hours. All of these factors combine to create Kitten Season each year.
How can you help?
HSoP relies heavily on monetary donations, and donated supplies. It costs HSoP roughly $600 to provide care for a single litter of kittens. This figure includes daily care, housing, food, vaccinations, parasite treatment, and spay/neuter procedures. Many times, HSoP will receive kittens needing extraordinary medical attention. In these situations, we call upon our community to help us bridge the gap in providing a second chance at life.
