More often than not, mom is not present at the moment simply because she is out seeking food. We here at the SPCA strive each and every day to provide the best opportunities possible to allow these kittens to grow and thrive. Simply put, to give these kittens the best chance of survival, it is vital they remain with their mother during the early stages of their lives. We are confident that the kind and caring community members of Erie County will join us in our effort to provide the best possible start for these kittens by leaving them with mom.
