Feline Foster Homes Needed

Kitten season is here. Dessin's Feline Foster Care Providers bring loving cats and/or kittens into their homes, businesses, or residences and provide the special care and attention these cats require until they're old enough and healthy enough to be placed for adoption. If you are able to help, please call (570-253-4037) or email the shelter.  Dessin can provide for each foster feline's food, veterinary care, even toys and other supplies... you provide the love.
