💨 Abstract

During kitten season 2025, numerous kittens like Strawberry, Blueberry, and Meatball were rescued and cared for by animal shelters and rescue groups. Kitten season, peaking in May and June, overwhelms shelters with fragile newborns, necessitating more foster homes. Hannah Shaw, known as the Kitten Lady, advocates for fostering, clarifying that shelters often cover costs.
