Adopt a kitten
The PAWS animal shelter in Lynnwood 60 kittens, far more than they usually have this time of year.
And they say that things are getting crowded.
The animal shelter — or Progressive Animal Welfare Society — is hoping to get people to come to Cat City over the weekend to pick out a new kitten.
Cat City is located at 5200 Roosevelt Way Northeast, Suite B, in Seattle’s University District.
According to staff, the kittens keep coming so fast that they haven’t had time to photograph them and put them on the website.
“It’s like a lunchtime line-up at the department of motor vehicles,” says Mark Coleman, PAWS communications manager.
A video of some of the kittens can be found at http://youtube/t00665Dn0wU.

The $15 registration fee includes a T-shirt if it’s submitted before Aug. 3. The American Red Cross Relief effort is set to receive $5 for every registration. For more information, call 425-745-1891.
