Kitten Season 2025: How You Can Help Overwhelmed Shelters

  • Animal shelters across the U.S. Face a surge of fragile neonatal kittens during the spring and summer months in what is called kitten season 2025.
  • This surge results from outdoor cats breeding more during warmer months, which overwhelms shelters that often lack time and resources for around-the-clock care.
  • Many shelters encourage fostering as a critical solution, providing support for food, supplies, and medical costs to help kittens remain healthy until adoption.
  • Programs like Hill's Food, Shelter & Love have contributed over $300 million in food to more than 1,000 North American shelters, while advocates like Hannah Shaw educate the public on fostering.
  • The kitten season influx increases the need for foster homes and adopters to reduce shelter strain, which could improve kitten survival and help shelters manage capacity.
