Cat Overpopulation







Ever wonder why there are so many cats in the world? I learned some interesting facts today. A cat can have up to five litters of kittens a year. FIVE!!! And they can go into their first heat at four months of age.

I got some of these facts from this FAQ sheet I found online: http://www.sacanimal.org/cat_reproduction_FAQ.pdf. Do the research. There are plenty of resources out there. Talk to your vet even. Just get the facts. Knowledge is power as they say.

And please spay/neuter your pets. Way too many die in overcrowded shelters or alone on the streets every day. Be the solution, not part of the problem.

Your pets will thank you for it.
