“To provide no-kill solutions to reduce the number of homeless cats and dogs through education, rehabilitation and re-homing.”
According to the Humane Society of the US, a single female cat can have three litters a year with an average of five kittens per litter. In only seven years, she and her offspring could potentially produce 420,000 cats. In just six years, one female dog and her brood can produce as many as 67,000 puppies!
