In the next few months, APL will take in literally hundreds of kittens. They'll be hungry and some may be ill and in need of special care. Some kittens will come with their mothers while others will be orphans. In order to care for this many kittens APL needs significant numbers of foster homes as well as resources such as canned cat food (paté style), baby bottles, litter and medicine.

In order to prepare for all of the incoming kittens, APL is hosting a Kitten Shower. Join us, Saturday, April 27th, for an open house between 1:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m at 1001 Taintor Rd, Springfield, IL.

​You can help! Drop off gifts at the shelter or check out our Kitten Wishlists on Amazon and Chewy, or our registry at Walmart! For links to our wishlists and registries go to http://www.apl-shelter.org/kitten-shower
