Adopt A Cat Month: You may just find your new best friend!

Each year, thousands of kittens are born during the spring and summer, and many end up in animal shelters, waiting for loving homes. To promote adoptions, the month of June is designated National Adopt-A-Cat Month.

Visit the fabulous felines at the City of Homer Animal Shelter.  You may just find your new best friend to take home!

The shelter, located at the corner of Heath Street and the Homer Bypass, is open to the public weekdays from noon to 5 pm (except Tuesdays, which have extended hours from noon to 7 pm) and weekends 11 am - 4 pm. 

What if you can't adopt? There are still ways to support the cause.  

Alaska Mindful Paws, a non-profit organization, manages the Homer Animal Shelter under contract with the City of Homer.  Contact them and ask if they have a donation wish list or sign up to be a shelter volunteer.
