The Nevada Humane Society says that they are getting kitten's every day and their foster coordinators can't take them all home.
Amanda Williamson the Marketing Coordinator at the Nevada Humane Society says, "We actually aren't even in peak kitten season, which starts in July. So currently we have maxed out our foster homes."Â
This call for help comes after the Humane Society posted on Facebook that it had eight litters of kittens come in Wednesday.
We are told that these kittens are taking care of, but they still need help fostering their incoming cats.Â
"We are getting dozens of kittens everyday, they come over from Washoe County, we are just being flooded. We are not entirely sure why this season has been so bad," Williamson says.
She also says that foster families simply help provide love and care before kittens go to their forever home.
"Our foster coordinators cannot take on all of these kittens, so we are looking for homes that are willing to take on long term commitments anywhere from several weeks to two months."
Some kittens that need fostering are still bottle fed. So after two months they should be able to eat by themselves. But the Humane Society says the kittens who are two months and older need kitten food and they are running out fast.
"We have a single bag of kitten food left, and that is going to be gone today, we need dry food and wet food."
If you decide to foster a litter the humane society will give you all the supplies you need to care for them. If you can't bring food, adopt, or foster, monetary donations are always appreciated.
