The Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter (SCCAS) is experiencing an overload of animals at their shelter. SCCAS has had a larger-than-usual influx of pets that stray from home when spooked by the bangs, explosions and fiery overhead visuals from fireworks popular on and around the July 4 holiday.
Adopting out animals helps open up precious space at their open-admission shelter for other animals that need Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter’s help. To encourage more animal adoptions, the following adoption specials will apply during the month of July 2015:
