Kitten season has started!
At the Upper Hutt Animal Rescue Society, we have our first pregnant mum. Gadget isn’t even 10 months old and she will be giving birth to her kittens in a few weeks.
We also have Ziggy – who is 10-12 weeks.
And newly arrived - three 4-5 week old kittens.
We are asking for donations of kitten food please so we can start stock piling for the rush. In particular kitten milk and biscuits. The other item we can never have enough of is kitty litter. We use the cheap kitty litter from the supermarkets.
You can drop your items at 4 King Charles Drive, Kingsley Heights. We are open 10:00am – 2:00pm weekdays, and 10:00am – 3:00pm weekends. We would love to say thank you personally.
Or if you are shopping at Countdown Maidstone, or Pak n Save Upper Hutt – look out for our yellow food bins at the front of the store.
Also – interested in fostering? If so, please contact us and we will start the process.
