    Our unfortunate economic recession has not just impacted people, but pets as well. According to the ASPCA (The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals), more than three million cats and kittens end up in shelters every year as many more are sadly expected to end up in shelters due to our economic downturn. To help keep cats in their loving homes, the ASPCA has teamed up with the makers of Fresh Step litter and 9Lives cat food to distribute a Cat Assistance Kit to owners in need. Each kit will include a litter pan, litter scoop, cat toy along with coupons for litter and cat food. At the event, animal behaviorist, Dr. Stephen Zawistowski will be there to offer free one-on-one cat care consultations. Please be advised that one kit will be given per household while supplies last. You can help this worthy cause by visiting www.mypawpoints.com.
