From the [SF SPCA](http://www.sfspca.org/about-us/press/press-releases/san-francisco-spca-announces-unveiling-annual-macy%E2%80%99s-union-square-holi) website:

> SAN FRANCISCO, CALIF., Nov 17 2011: The San Francisco SPCA kicks off the holiday season with the unveiling of the Macy’s Holiday Windows on Friday. The windows displays feature lovable—and adoptable—furry friends who will make the greatest gift of all.

This is the 25th year of this program (not always with Macy’s).

This [LINK](http://www.sfspca.org/support/events/macys-holiday-windows-s1) takes you to the first of 6 cameras streaming video of the pets, the other cameras are linked on that page. Hours are mainly 9:30am to 9:00pm Pacific time, closed Thanksgiving & Christmas Day. Last day is New Years day.

So if you need a little kitten (or puppy) goodness during the next few weeks or so, here you go. 🙂

Most years, my wife and i spend the holidays in San Francisco, and we always stop by to look at the animals in the windows. A lot of the time, though, it’s so crowded that you can barely get a look in.
