Smithtown Adoptable Pets Of The Week: 7 Kittens

SMITHTOWN, NY — Seven kittens shared the honor of Smithtown Animal Shelter's Pets of the Week this go-around. These adorable little toddlers are currently residing in the shelter's kitten nursery as they await their perfect Furr-ever homes. Sadly, these little tykes are often passed up for the younger kittens (8-10 weeks) despite their beautiful coats and sweet demeanor.

Arabella, Posey, Ren, Obsidian, and Marilla are all 4-month-old Domestic Shorthair kittens. Arabella, Posey, and Marilla are females, while Ren and Obsidian (also known as Sid) are males. Statistically, the older a cat is, the more difficult it becomes to place them in a good home, according to the shelter. It hopes to find the kittens loving families while they’re still young.

Kitten season is now all-year, as there are always new kittens coming into the shelter. In 2018, there were more than 100 kittens at the shelter, or in foster care.

Currently, there are a variety of male and female cats & kittens available to adopt or foster.

"If you are looking for a fun-loving, yarn tossing ball of love, stop by the Kitten Nursery or the Cat Condos at the Smithtown Animal Shelter and find a PURR-fect soulmate or two," the shelter stated.

Walk-In Hours at Smithtown Animal Shelter are currently Monday to Friday from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Sundays are by appointment only.

All of the felines at the shelter are current on vaccines and have received a full workup (blood work, Feline HIV & Leukemia tested, physical exam etc.) by a board certified veterinarian.
