KHS Prison Kitties Receive National and International Attention
November 18, 2015
Our Pawsitive Prison Program at the Mission Creek Women’s Correctional Center began the end of October and is off to a great start! The program trains approved offenders at Mission Creek to foster cats and kittens from KHS until they are ready to return to the shelter for adoption.
We are very excited with the initial success of this program and the support it is receiving from our community. Earlier this week, King 5 news featured a story on the program along with the BBC interviewing KHS Adoption Outreach Coordinator, Meagan Richards, and a video and story published by USA Today.

We still need donations from you to continue to make this program a success! KHS provides all food, litter and other cat supplies like cleaning supplies, grooming supplies, toys, and bedding for the Pawsitive Prison Program, so we are asking for help! Our Pawsitive Prison Program Wish List is:
Cat scratcher toy and replacement scratching pads
Kitchen scale for weighing kittens
Donations can be dropped off to the donation bin at the front door of the KHS shelter (9167 Dickey Road, Silverdale) 8am-5:30pm seven days a week, or to the front desk of the shelter during business hours OR ordered online from our Amazon Wishlist and mailed to directly to the shelter.
