Dear Friends,

Friends of Forks Animals is overflowing with eleven beautiful calico and tortie kittens, and their moms. Here FOFA member/volunteer Sherry Schaaf recently comforted one of the kittens. They’ll be spayed/neutered, have been flea treated and are up for adoption. Please get your animals spayed and neutered. FOFA can help! Call the message line at 360-374-3332 to set up a spay or neuter appointment. Approximately 542,000 cats are euthanized each year in U.S. animal shelters, the rate of euthanasia for cats is significantly higher than for dogs, at around 41 percent of all cats entering shelters.
