This cute and cuddly litter of kittens are ready to be adopted from the SPCA. They are eight weeks old and desexed, deflea'd and wormed.

"People need to remember that getting a kitten is a huge responsibility," said Craig Montgomery, of the SPCA. Kittens need to be kept indoors for the first few weeks at home and fed three times a day.

"Getting kittens from the SPCA is a great option, because a lot of our kittens have already been in volunteer foster homes," he said.

If you would like to adopt a kitten or another animal in need, contact your local SPCA.
