What to do if you find feral kittens on O'ahu“Kitten Season” is a phrase used by animal welfare organizations nationwide, to describe the massive influx of kittens and mother cats admitted to shelters in the US. On the continent and in most states, Kitten Season begins around spring and lasts through early winter. In Hawaiʻi, however, Kitten Season may last all year due to our tropical environment. It is during this time of year that Feral cats start reproducing and continue to have several litters. Female felines can go into heat as early as four months old and collected data reveals that a female cat is capable of having over 100 kittens during her reproductive years, MEWOW. Should you happen upon a Kitten...STOP and OBSERVENot all kittens need help.

Tatau: Marks of Polynesia until July 4th, 2022at the Bishop Museum I like to think we as human beings are works of art… in progress. We project our life’s story through many mediums and the human body being the most immediate, is no exception. Body art and modification are ancient forms of expression and the Bishop Museum is offering a glimpse of one particular Polynesian tradition popular here in Hawai’i. Tattooing has long been held as not just a practice in art but also a way to tell stories through art, through the intimate painting of one's body. Samoa's tatau is one of the world's most distinct tattoo traditions. It is an indigenous art form dating back 2,000 years, and has played a pivotal role in the preservation and propagation of Samoan culture. In Samoa, tufuga ta tatau (mast...
