    ****UPDATE****
    Thank you everyone for your help! Last week we adopted our new kitten. Her name is Coupon
    here she is




    Hi Everyone!

    Just wondering if anyone knows where I should go to if I want to adopt a Kitten. The only place I could think of was the SPCA but they are not adopting out cats right now because of ringworm. I can't for the life of me find a place to go, and I really didn't want to go to a pet store when there are so many kittens in need.

    Thanks in advance for your help!!

    Could you ask the SPCA where they would recommend?

    The other SPCA shelters on the island are pretty far away, but the SPCA could tell you which other local shelters are reputable. I think it's great that you're adopting rather than buying from a store or Craigslist.

    Here are several. You can also contact your local animal control as well as local vets where litters of kittens are often abandoned. Thank you for considering giving a home to a homeless pet instead of encouraging backyard breeders and/or irresponsible pet owners.

    We got our two boys from Dees Cat Orphan Fund. They were kittens that we fostered over a weekend and I fell for them. I don't think they list their cats on the website cause ours weren't ... They were headed to Bosley's the following week for adoption there. I can say that PetSmart in Langford always has cats from adoption agencies in their store. Not sureif they are kittens though. Good luck and I hope you post a photo later

    Oh, I just had to peek - what a beautiful kitty!

    Just so you know, there's a Cat Club thread in the Tea Room to post pics, etc.
