Congratulations goes out to Troop 2135 of Limerick Maine! Their second year in a row to win the "Project Kitten Challenge" at the 10th Annual AWS Kitten Shower.

These girls worked all year to collect 816 pounds of KITTEN supplies! Very impressive!

 

 

Also impressive, and coming in second place were Troops 1056 and 252 of Kennebunk and Arundel and in third place, the Plaisted Family, in honor of Nana.

With the help of the volunteers from Amica Insurance, Shannon Moss of WMTW and the AWS Crafters, the shower was a huge success!

 

 

Now that Kitten Season is here, AWS foster families will have the supplies that they need to care for the unwanted pregnant momma cats, moms with kittens & the orphan kitties they care for until they are old enough for adoption.

Many thanks to the volunteers, groups and individuals who made this year one of the best Kitten Showers, ever!

 

In all, more than 2,000 pounds of supplies and $2,400 were collected.
