The metropolis of Midland reminds residents that this week is Animal Care and Control Appreciation week.
To present appreciation to the shelter workers this week, a gaggle of residents are offering employees with breakfast, lunch and a snack every day, in accordance with Lori VanHoozer, animal fanatic.
“Animal care and control officers are compassionate and committed people who serve on a daily basis to ensure the safety of pets and their people,” VanHoozer acknowledged. “Stray dogs, cats and owner surrenders make up most of the shelter’s population, as do a few abused and injured pets. These caring employees are the first ones a pet sees when it enters the shelter and employees are there to comfort scared and confused pets and to take care of the injured, sick and hungry.”
A information launch reveals that the shelter takes care of roughly 350-400 pets on a month-to-month foundation. Also, volunteer photographer Tasha Sport images some animals out there for adoption each week. You can discover these posted on town’s Facebook web page every Monday (https://www.facebook.com/CityofMidlandTX). This week, Midland Animal Shelter workers had been spotlighted with just a few of the out there animals.
To undertake one among these pets, please name the shelter to set an appointment at 432-685-7420. The adoption charge is $62 and contains microchip, rabies vaccination, license, tag and alter.
