“During the spring and summer months, as the weather gets warmer, cats begin new breeding cycles and many cats and kittens enter the shelter,” said Melanie Sobel, General Manager, SCCAS. “We urge anyone looking for a companion animal to come to the shelter to support the local homeless animals in the community.”
