Adoption Event to help promote its
available cats and dogs.
“Our busy season’s coming, so we want to bring some attention to the shelter,” said Trish McCallum, assistant manager at the SOCAF. “We want to get people excited about adopting animals and get people to come in and see the cats and dogs that we have, and see how we’ve grown. We’re trying to get people excited about adopting and letting them know we’re here,” she added.
Adoption fees will be waived for selected animals to help promote happy adoptions. Fees include vaccinations and micro-chipping, as well as spaying or neutering. A gift bag will be given with each animal that’s given a forever home.
The food bank will be open for donations. Wet and dry food for cats and dogs, as well as treats for dogs, are needed.
