The Santa Fe Humane Society and Shelter has been been committed for more than seven decades to reducing “animal suffering by curbing overpopulation, teaching compassion, and supporting healthy relationships between people and animals.” (period in quotes)
One way the Shelter is
able to engage the public in their work is by holding special events to
highlight the special relationship between people and animals. Last week, Carl
attended the Paws for a Cause Run & Walk event, co-sponsored by the Santa
Fe Humane Society and St. Vincent Hospital Foundation. He had the opportunity
to listen to what the animals - and their humans - had to say about life in our
community! Carl loved the chance to share some time outside with everyone at
this fun event.This month’s special adoption event at the Shelter is titled “Back In Black.” The event focuses on finding forever homes for animals with black fur - studies show these animals are often overlooked at shelters. Adoption fees are 50 percent off all adult animals with black markings through May. Give black cats and dogs the attention they deserve by spreading the word about the Shelter's adoption event.
Check out some of the amazing pets available for adoption at the shelter below. For more information on pet adoptions, call at the shelter at (505) 983-4309.
Cleo, a black Bombay mix, is
about 6 years old. She’s independent, curious and loves to explore or hang out
with other cats. Cleo loves back rubs and playtime and will do well in a
multicat home. She’s in foster care right now, but would love to find a forever
home.
Duke, a black Staffordshire
Bull Terrier and Boxer mix, is about 2 years old. This big boy – about 60
pounds – loves to go for walks and outdoor adventures. He’s energetic, curious
and super friendly.
