Shelter Giving Away Cats and Kittens for Free

The Peninsula Humane Society hopes all felines are in new homes by the holidays.

Bay Area residents looking to adopt a cat or kitten may now do so free of charge at the Peninsula Humane Society and SPCA, Humane Society officials announced this week.

The Humane Society and SPCA's new adoption center in Burlingame is waiving adoption fees for all cats and kittens. Feline adoption fees at the local SPCA usually run from $50 to $95, according to organization spokesman Scott Delucchi.

Dozens of cats are available for adoption.

"We will gladly trade adoption fees for those homes."
