Animal Services hosts Christmas meal for shelter animals

Posted

Dogs and cats at Cumberland County Animal Services were treated to a Christmas feast Wednesday morning.

The Friends of Cumberland County Animals organized the meal for approximately 100 dogs and 50 cats housed at the shelter, the county said in a release.

It’s great to see the animals enjoying a special treat like this,” Elaine Smith, the Animal Services director, said in the release. “We wish that all these pets could find great new homes for the holidays, so please consider adopting a new pet if there is room in your home.” 

 Adoption fees are $100 for dogs and $70 for cats. The adoption fee covers spay/neuter surgery, microchip, and age-appropriate vaccines, the county said. 

 The animal shelter, located at 4704 Corporation Drive, is open for adoptions from 11 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., Monday through Friday and 1 to 5 p.m. on Saturday. The shelter will be closed for the holidays from Dec. 23–27.
