After Hours Crisis Care Program saves injured animals

This program is a major life saver! Now, thanks to Friends (FCACC), serious cases of animal illness, neglect, abuse, and accidents that come in after the city shelter’s staff veterinarians have left for the day are rushed to a private emergency service for immediate care. Many are given major care on the spot. Others are stabilized and then transferred back to CACC in the morning. With no money in the city budget for after hours care, the program is funded entirely by donations to Friends.

Clear the Shelters Petco Event: Fee-Waived Kitties

 

FEE-WAIVED KITTY ADOPTION DAY!
Sponsored by NBC-5 Telemundo
Kittens and cats of all colors, ages and purr-sonalities will be all over the place at the downtown Petco at 440 N. Orleans on Saturday, August 17 from 11am-3pm! Adoption fees will be waived–yes! That means FREE kitties! You still have to fill out an application and pass our normal approval process, but there’s no fee. All animals come from the city shelter and will be spayed or neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, tested for nasty stuff, and more. It’s the deal of the summer! Parking in the Kingsbury lot on Illinois just west of Orleans is FREE for a 1/2 hour.
