Why Kitten Season Isn't So Cute
from City Cast Pittsburgh · host City Cast
Did you know that cats can get pregnant at just four months old, and they can birth as many as five litters every year? That’s a lot of kittens, and if they aren’t brought into a shelter as babies, they often end up in overpopulated outdoor cat colonies. That’s where local rescues like Conquer the Colony step up to help maintain the population through its trap, neuter, and return program. We’re revisiting our conversation with founders Erin Hartman and Kelly Kraus, who explain how — with a crate and some patience — anyone can get involved. Today is the deadline to apply for a mail-in or absentee ballot ahead of the May 16th primary. You can request a ballot here. Want some more Pittsburgh news?
