Cats Take Over Port Orchard City Hall!

PORT ORCHARD, WA – Kitsap Humane Society (KHS) is partnering with the City of Port Orchard to turn City Hall into Kitty Hall. On Tuesday, August 29, Port Orchard City Hall will be taken over by all things kitty, including adoptable cats and kittens looking for homes. KHS will be giving out Kitty Hall-themed giveaways, and have booths with information on: low-cost spay/neuter opportunities for cats; barn cats; how to foster kittens; volunteer opportunities; and cat behavior! KHS will also be accepting donated items from its wish list to support the cats and kittens in their care, including wet and dry cat food, cat toys, and cat litter.

“In partnership with the Kitsap Humane Society, the City of Port Orchard supports adoption of all animals and hopes that our Kitty Hall Day will be able to help place all the kittens and cats in that purrfect home!” said Mayor Robert B. Putaansuu.

KHS took in over 3500 cats and kittens in 2016 and is on track to take in at least that many kitties again in 2017. The Port Orchard Kitty Hall event is one way that KHS is looking to engage more with community members across Kitsap County on issues related to cats and cat ownership. Other Kitty Hall events will take place throughout the month of August at the Poulsbo and Bainbridge Island Halls as well.

Port Orchard Kitty Hall:
WHERE: Port Orchard City Hall | 216 Prospect Street
WHEN: Tuesday, August 29 | 10am-1pm
WHO: Mayor Robert B. Putaansuu will address the event at 11:30am

Kitsap Humane Society is a private, nonprofit, charitable organization that has been caring for animals in need since 1908. KHS admits more than 6,000 animals per year and has one of the highest lives saved rates in the US. KHS’ vision is that every adoptable companion animal has a home.
