Kitten Party

Partying like it’s 1776... Little kittens Sparkles, Katy, Glory, Cherry, and Betsy posed wonderfully and worked diligently at looking extra adorable rocking red, white and blue for their 4th of July photo shoot. Their modeling careers are now coming to an end as they prepare to look for their forever families!

Available for pre-adoption, these 5 sisters will come spayed, FVRCP vaccinated, combo tested, treated for parasites, microchipped and purrfectly litterbox trained. Please adopt one of these babies. Visit solanokittennetwork.com/forms/ to complete an adoption application for one of these lil’ firecrackers.

“We rescued seven kittens, a litter of five girls from a homeless Benicia man who lives in a tent. It was a litter of five females and two other little boys that were half dead,” said Volunteer Trina Shaw. “It’s a constant battle. Rescue is so not what people think. It’s a nightmare daily--especially during kitten season.” The females are all available and there is a 4th of July special running. Instead of the normal fee which just recoups costs at $200, they are cutting that in half.

“We have so many right now, and they all need to get to homes right away,” said Shaw.

No Hall Park Display
