Kitten season is coming, and the Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons (ARF) invites you to help the tiniest felines in need. Join for a Kitten Shower on Saturday, April 11, from 12 to 2 PM at the ARF Adoption Center in East Hampton.
This free event is a fun and informative way for animal lovers to prepare for the arrival of newborn kittens on the East End. As spring approaches, shelters like ARF see an influx of kittens in need of urgent care, and we need the community’s help to support them.
The Kitten Shower will include foster and care training, bottle-feeding demonstrations, a kitten supply drive, adoption and volunteer opportunities, kitten crafts with Shine Studio, adorable kitten-themed snacks and refreshments, and more. With ARF’s Operation Cat Program, you can learn how to help community (feral) cats through trapping, spaying/neutering, and care.
Meet a few of ARF’s tiniest arrivals. Just like a baby shower, the Kitten Shower helps to collect the supplies the kittens need to thrive during the busiest time of the year.
