NEW KITTEN?! START HERE. 🐱🐾
What if six weeks could help shape a lifetime of confidence? Think Puppy Kindergarten... but for kittens. 😻
For the first time ever, SPCA of Northern Nevada is offering Kitten Kindergarten — a six-week course designed to help kittens grow into confident, well-adjusted cats while giving their humans the tools to better understand them every step of the way.
Whether you've recently adopted a kitten or simply want to give your newest family member the best possible start, this class is for you. And yes — kittens are not only welcome, they're encouraged to attend! 🥰
Through socialization, play, handling, and positive experiences, you'll learn how to support your kitten during one of the most important stages of their development. Instead of focusing on correcting behaviors, we'll focus on building trust, confidence, and communication.
Plus, you'll spend six weeks surrounded by adorable kittens and fellow cat lovers. 🥹
Class Details
📍 Kitty Lounge at the SPCA of Northern Nevada Thrift Store | 75 E. Moana Lane, Reno, NV
📆 Thursdays beginning July 2 | 5:30 PM–6:30 PM
👥 Limited to just 7 kitten families (1–3 kittens each)
💜 FREE to attend! Suggested donation: $25
By the end of the program, you'll leave with a stronger bond, a better understanding of your kitten's needs, and the confidence to help them thrive for years to come.
This inaugural class has extremely limited space, so don't wait to reserve your spot!

A predecessor to the more celebrated Ansel Adams, Western landscape photographer Carleton Watkins is known for his large-format, scenic portrayals of Yosemite, the Sierra Nevada, and the Oregon Coast. In this analysis of ten selected photographs from Stanford University’s Special Collections archive, Alice Wilson considers Watkins’ visual expression as a documentarian and interpreter of the West during the period 1850 to 1875. While Watkins images the majesty of Western landscape, he also records its environmental degradation. Wilson argues that Watkins’ innovative photography complicates the romantic portrayal of the American West by landscape painters of the time, suggesting that human use of natural resources may threaten the environment, and positioning Watkins among early advocates for conservation.
Alice Wilson lectures on land use at the University of California, Berkeley, where she is a five-time recipient of Club 6 honors, as voted by students for engaged teaching. Her graduate work at Stanford University focused on photography and art history of the American West. Additionally, she is a former docent at San Francisco’s Museum of Modern
