Episode description

Currently, shelters across the U.S. are overcrowded with dogs.  But Holly Sizemore, the Chief Mission Officer for Best Friends Animal Society, says they are about to get inundated with cats and kittens as well.

Now is the time to spay and neuter both indoor and all outdoor cats as females are currently in heat and will start producing offspring within the next couple of months.  There are Trap, Neuter, and Release (TNR) programs across the country to help pay for the cost of these procedures.

Sizemore says most pets in shelters are human causes, not because the animal is damaged in someway.  Their adoption fees are much less expensive than buying from a breeder or pet store.
