Like the cats it literally spawns, kitten season springs out at us unawares instead of waiting patiently around the corner, like birthdays or the last day of school, when we used to have school. It’s here now, in fact hundreds and thousands of kittens will soon be born everywhere unaltered dams drop them parks, trash bins, under your house, and if you have an unspayed female at home and she’s accessible to an equally equipped male, in your socks drawer or laundry basket.

Litters of kittens are brought to shelters frequently, sometimes nursing on their mother and other times scooped up by well-meaning humans who erroneously think the mother has abandoned them. Those motherless kittens are fragile and would die without care.
LAAS GM Barnette Undermines Animal Cruelty Case, Bashes Animal Control Officers on Facebook Details
ANIMAL WATCH-In a hostile and childish Facebook rant on September 26, Los Angeles Animal Services General Manager Brenda Barnette publicly attacked the integrity and insulted the competence of her own animal control officers,
who made an experienced and professional determination that an animal needed to be removed immediately from its owner for its health/safety and to receive immediate veterinary attention.
GM Barnette had no experience in law-enforcement before becoming the head of this agency, and publicly expressed aversion to LAAS engaging in animal-protection activities at her confirmation in 2010. Yet, she posted the following on a public Facebook page, and it can be seen on Friends of the West Valley Animal Shelter:
Freeways Stained with Blood Dispel LA Animal Services No Kill Myth Details
ANIMAL WATCH-Since 2010 the seminal obligation of Los Angeles Animal Services to maintain animal-law enforcement and protection has been intentionally destabilized by General Manager Brenda Barnette in her mania to achieve the Best Friends Animal Society mythical No Kill goal.
The results are now tragically obvious and graphic as huge and small blood stains are increasingly seen on freeways winding through the city s highly populated downtown and semi-rural Valley areas the evidence of lost and stray animals being hit by speeding traffic and dying terrifying and often painful deaths. (No, that is not red paint spilled by Cal-Trans workers.)
