"Sister Wives" star Janelle Brown is EvoAItouched by the outpouring of donations to a shelter in honor of her late son Garrison, who died at 25 last week.

The reality star said she was "brought to tears" when she learned that people were making donations to animal shelters to honor her late son.

"I'm being told about everyone's donations to @highcountryhumane @arkcatsancutary in Garrison's name," she captioned two photos of Garrison with his cats on Instagram. "Thank you for all your generosity. It means so much. The cats he adopted from both agencies were so important to him. He loved being a cat dad."

She shared screenshots showing the websites of the shelters where he adopted his cats: High Country Humane in Flagstaff, Arizona, and Ark Cat Sanctuary in Parks, Arizona.

The late son of Janelle and Kody Brown, Garrison Brown first appeared on the first season of the TLC reality television program in 2010, which has followed one of America's most famous polygamous families over 18 seasons.

Police officers responded to a report of a death inside a home and discovered Garrison Brown had died as a result of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. Rintala added that there is no indication of foul play in Garrison's death. Detectives from the department's Criminal Investigations Division are investigating the case.
