ARF Calendar of Events
Kitten season is almost here, and ARF Hamptons is getting ready to welcome dozens of tiny, wiggly, purr-filled kittens. Every spring, vulnerable little ones arrive who need round-the-clock care—many are orphaned and rely on bottle feeding, warmth, and loving foster homes until they’re ready for adoption. That being said… you’re invited to celebrate at ARF’s annual Kitten Shower on Saturday, April 11, from 12 to 2 PM at the ARF Adoption Center, 124 Daniels Hole Road, East Hampton! Come help us gather supplies, learn how to care for bottle babies, and meet a few of our tiniest arrivals. Just like a baby shower, ARF’s Kitten Shower helps us collect the love and supplies our kittens need to thrive during the busiest time of the year. Whether you’re curious about fostering, hoping to adopt, or just want to spend time with kittens and fellow cat lovers, come celebrate kitten season with us! Because every tiny toe bean deserves a chance at big dreams, cozy naps, and a bright future. Photo by Francine Fleischer. We love volunteers!
