Montana
Looking More Like February
It’s looking more like February and winter with more snow on the ground in parts of Montana than there has been in a while. That was a pretty good storm and several Montana cities including Helena, Lewistown, Baker and Miles City received more precipitation from this one storm than typically occurs in the entire month of February. However, the rest of the week will be dry and mild. There will be lots of sunshine over the through the rest of the workweek. Wednesday a little snow will fall in southern Montana along I-90, but most of the rest of the state will be dry with comfortable temperatures and decent sunshine. Thursday and Friday will be partly to mostly sunny with highs in the 40s to near 50. Saturday is Valentine’s Day and the weather looks mostly cloudy with highs in the 40s and low 50s with dry conditions. Sunday will be mostly cloudy with an outside chance at a few flakes or drops. Overall most of the state will be dry with highs in the 40s to around 50. Monday is looking mild and dry but starting Tuesday there is a chance of snow and colder temperatures. The pattern next week will be colder with snow moving through the West. Winter is not over yet, but time is winding down.
Have a great day,

If a furry, playful, hugg-able, lovable kitten would be a great addition to your place, now’s the time to visit the Humane Society of Western Montana.
MEET BAKER AND BUSBOY
It was another Take Me Home Tuesday at the radio stations with the Humane Society. Katie brought in “Baker” (black kitty) and “Busboy” (gray kitty), who along with their two siblings “Chef” and “Cook” form a Fantastic Four of pure joy.
These two-month-old little ones were found in the Polson area and surrendered to the shelter. They just had their spay/neuter surgeries Monday (July 13) and they will be looking for their forever homes starting Wednesday (July 15).
Whether you are looking for one kitten or the whole “kitchen,” visit the shelter and fall in love with Baker, Busboy, Chef and Cook.
EVER CONSIDERED BEING A FOSTER HOME FOR SHELTER PETS?
It is kitten season at the Humane Society of Western Montana. The Humane Society is always looking for Fosters to take care of tiny kittens until they are old enough to be adopted. They currently have some that are with mom cats, and some that are bottle babies. And there is always a need for volunteers willing to nurture them until they are of adoption age.
And of course one of the perks of being a Foster is, if you fall in love with a kitten, you pretty much get first dibs.

They are open from 1:00 – 6:00 pm Wednesdays through Sundays at 5930 Highway 93 South in Missoula. See more cats AND dogs waiting to be adopted on the shelter’s ADOPT webpage here.
