The Moore Humane Society, along with the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, is celebrating June as national Adopt-a-Shelter-Cat Month to help bring attention to the many wonderful cats and kittens awaiting adoption at shelters nationwide.

Spring and summer months typically bring a surge of cats and kittens to the nation's animal shelters, and Moore Humane Society is no different. We have cats of all ages, sizes and colors that are looking for a forever home.

To find your new friend, visit us at 5355 N.C. 22. If you can't adopt, there are still ways to celebrate Adopt-a-Shelter-Cat Month. Most importantly, spay or neuter your pets. By spaying and neutering your companion animals you are becoming part of the solution to pet overpopulation.

If your pets are already spayed or neutered, go one step further and encourage others to do the same thing. You could even offer to help with the costs for someone who may not be able to afford it otherwise.

Another way to help celebrate is to become a foster parent to a cat or kitten needing some extra TLC before being adopted. For more information about becoming a foster parent, please contact us at (910) 947-2631. Please help us save Moore animals!
