Are you welcoming a new kitten into your home?  Here are a few tips to help make sure you keep your kitten and your home belongings safe.

Kitten-Proofing Tips:

• Know Their Hiding Spots - Kittens can squeeze themselves into spots you might not think to look.  Try to limit their access to potentially unsafe hiding spots like the clothes washer or dryer.
• Put Away Delicate Items - Cats are excellent at climbing and scaling your furniture.  Be sure to keep fragile collectibles in safe places.  Don't leave them out on open shelves, especially when you're not home to keep an eye on your kitty.
• Remove Poisonous Plants - Know what plants are poisonous to cats.  Keep these plants out of reach of your new pet!  
• Secure Doors - You may not think of it at first, but cats can open cabinet doors and drawers to see what's inside.  It might be a good idea to install childproof latches to keep your kitten away from potentially dangerous cleaning supplies, medications, and chemicals.

This past year, Dr. Allan Bregman and the 5^th Avenue Cat Clinic adopted and helped place over 100 kittens!

We want to recognize this outstanding achievement the 5thAvenue Cat Clinic has accomplished. We’d also like to extend a special thanks to Mrs. Lorenzana for bringing in 80 kittens from the Rockaway area!

We've had the pleasure of caring for those adorable kittens for the past year and are so proud to have been able to place them in loving homes.
