This Weekend: Pets in the Park
Filed under: Play — StyleGuide @ 8:23 pm
Finding the perfect dog or cat, plus helping to control the pet population — what’s not to love about adopting from animal shelters?
And now is a good time of year to meet your match. The winter holiday season is one of the busiest times of the year for shelters and rescue organizations.
It’s sad, but pets purchased as gifts frequently fail to last with new owners — mostly because the person who gets the pet isn’t prepared for the responsibilities of the pet. Discarded animals will flood shelters and rescue facilities throughout January and February.
The good news? Pet adoption couldn’t be easier. This Saturday, January 19, 2008, “Pets in the Park” in Hollywood is like match.com for aspiring pet owners seeking adoptable animals.
The free event also features a children’s show on pet safety, information on free sterilization for feral cats through a “Trap-Neuter-Return” program, and a veterinarian and a canine coach to answer your questions.
Should be a great day — regardless of whether you have two legs or four.
When: Saturday, January 19, 2008, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Where: De Longpre Park in Hollywood, at the corner of Cherokee and De Longpre
