In response to an especially busy kitten season, El Dorado County Animal Services, in partnership with People for Animal Welfare in El Dorado County, is offering a limited time reduction on the price of kittens.

All kittens at the South Lake Tahoe and Placerville shelters are available for adoption for half-price — $40.

The adoption fee covers the cost of the kitten’s first shots, spay or neuter, a microchip and vet exam. Each spring and summer, Animal Services’ shelters experience an influx of kittens and are nearing capacity with more kittens arriving daily.

Animal Services is also looking for loving homes to provide temporary foster homes for many of the kittens over the next several weeks. Fostering the kittens in a home environment helps to socialize them and they are more adoptable when they come back to the shelter, officials said..
