The Humane Society of Pagosa Springs invites you to attend our second ‘Animal Shelter Baby Shower’ to support your local Humane Society — and the upcoming puppy and kitten season — tomorrow, Saturday, April 1, at the PLPOA Clubhouse, 230 Port Avenue, from 3 to 5pm.
Every spring, the shelter is overwhelmed with kittens and puppies in need of care until they are ready for adoption. We need your support to help provide the critical funding that pays for medical services, food and shelter to help these babies survive and thrive.
There is always a need for caring people to foster these tender charges, so if you have an interest, please contact the shelter to apply.
As you can imagine, this care comes at a substantial cost which is far from offset by our low adoption fees. So, this is where you come in. The Humane Society needs your support to help provide the critical funding that pays for medical services, food and shelter to help these babies in need.
Tomorrow’s Animal Shelter Baby Shower will be a fun-filled event to enjoy with your friends and family, and will have auction items you can bid on. This year we are excited to announce we will be having cakes and desserts in our auction. You definitely will want to bid on all the amazing desserts. For our animal lovers, we will have multiple baskets for your pets to enjoy as well as the opportunity to name a litter of pups and kittens that come into the shelter this spring.
Light snacks are included and a cash bar will serve mimosas and beer.
Tickets are $25. Visit www.hspagosa.org, to purchase your tickets and for details on the event. You can buy shower gifts online through the Amazon on our site, or buy from our registry at our local Chow Down. You can also make a monetary donation to help cover veterinary cost.
A variety of refreshments will be served free at the event, and there will also be a cash bar with mimosas and beer for everyone to let loose and enjoy the beginning of spring. Come and see your friends, bring a buddy, and enjoy an afternoon of fun. The kittens and puppies will thank you.
The Humane Society of Pagosa Springs is a local private nonprofit organization that operates the only animal shelter in Archuleta County. Your local humane society does not receive funding from the Humane Society of the United States, American Humane, ASPCA or any other national animal welfare organizations. Private donations, grants and thrift store revenues cover only a portion of animal shelter operating expenses. The remainder of shelter costs must be met through fundraising events.
Funds raised through our events directly benefit the homeless dogs and cats in our community. Board members and volunteers donate their time and talents to handle fundraising efforts by the organization and new volunteers are always welcome. For more information about donating, please contact the Humane Society of Pagosa Springs administration office at (970) 264- 5549 or email us at hsadmin@ humanesociety.biz
