JOURNAL FILE
It's the purrrfect time to become a foster parent or adopt a furry, four-legged kitten companion.
With kitten season running rampant, Bernalillo County Animal Care Services has taken in 121 kittens this month and is in need of foster care providers for these orphaned kittens, a news release said.
These foster kittens will need specialized care, including bottle-feeding, since they are too young to eat without support, the release said.
"The community’s help is needed to provide these vulnerable animals with the care they need until they are ready for adoption," the release said.
The release added that BernCo Animal Care staff is available to provide training and supplies to help foster volunteers successfully take care of the kittens.
Anyone interested in fostering can fill out an interest form and a coordinator will reach out to provide more information.
