The county kitten population is a concern for many animal lovers. HSWC currently holds nearly 100 kittens all in need of a loving, permanent home. With a total cat population at the shelter approaching 300, we are asking the residents of Washington County to be responsible pet owners. There are many ways you, as a pet owner, can be part of the solution.

The most obvious action to take to be part of the solution is spaying or neutering your cat. By spaying/neutering your cat, you will not only help solve the cat overpopulation problem, but you will be detering undesirable behavior, such as spraying, associated with unalter cats.

Another way to lessen the problem is adopting your next cat rather then buying him (or her) from a pet store or breeder. There are currently many to choose from at the society, each with a unique look and personality.

Lastly, don't forget to encourage your friends and family to be part of the solution. Without everyone's help, we will never be able to solve the cat overpopulation problem. This is not a fight we can win by ourselves!
