— Humane Society hosts “baby shower” donation drive to collect supplies for upcoming kitten and puppy season —
It’s a kitten! And a kitten! And another kitten! Yes, kitten and puppy season is here again. To help prepare our foster program for the influx of cuteness and responsibility they are about to receive, we are throwing a baby shower Thursday, May 15 at 11 a.m.!
Humane Society of the Pikes Peak Region and Pueblo Animal Services are also in urgent need of foster families who can help us save more lives and donate their time toward caring for underage kittens and puppies until they become old enough for adoption. If anyone is interested in becoming a foster family, please visit www.hsppr.org/foster to apply at Humane Society of the Pikes Peak Region and call 719-544-3005 to apply at Pueblo Animal Services.
