Kitten Season is in Full Swing

However late, kitten season has reached full swing at the Richmond Animal Shelter. Pictured below is a little kitten that was caught by our dedicated volunteer Mary He. The poor, tiny kitten was suffering from severe anemia due to the vast number of fleas living on his skin. It took Carol Reichert an entire hour to patiently brush and wash the fleas away, to the immediate relief of our little kitty! He is now in foster care while he regains his strength and prepares for adoption.
