Pet Of The Week

Pictured in the cage behind the bars of the Orange County Animal Shelter is a pretty lynx point female that has been spayed. Her impound number is A1074112.

There are many others like her in need of help. Flurries of e-mails have been circulating in hopes of saving many lives. Your home could save an animal’s life. Please consider helping.

I feel terribly sorry for all the people who relinquished their pets to a rescue, hoping for the best for their pets. I can see how easy it would be for a heartfelt rescue person to take in too many animals and become overwhelmed and not be able to financially provide for their needs.

View https://www.animalnetwork.org to see photos of our available animals or call (949) 759-3646 to help by fostering a dog or cat in your home. Meet animals in person at the Fashion Island Pet Adoption event sponsored by Russo’s Pet Experience weekends, from noon till 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.

Community Animal Network was grateful to have received $725 for the purchase of pet food in February. However, we continue to be in need to continue our mission to help local animals. Donations in January were $156 and February’s contributions were $210.

Your generous contributions will allow us to make a difference in the lives of local animals. If you can, please consider making a monthly pledge to help.
