The DeKalb Animal Coalition has 2023 calendars for sale featuring pet photos and related information about them and the shelter.
The cost is $25 and all proceeds will go to a new voucher program to help control the stray pet population called the Spay and Neuter Assistance Program (S.N.A.P)
You can purchase the calendars now at the shelter on Transfer Station Road off Highway 70 east behind Tenneco Automotive.
“We feel this spay and neuter voucher program is needed in our community because more and more strays are popping up. We want to help get them fixed. These calendars have lots of pet photos and information about things going on at the shelter. If you would like to purchase one come by the shelter. They would make great Christmas gifts,” said Shelter Director Emmaly Bennett.
While you’re at the shelter, be sure to ask about “Oliver” the WJLE/DeKalb Animal Shelter featured “Pet of the Week”.
“Oliver is about two years old. He is a big lap house cat. Oliver is super sweet and loves everyone and everything. He loves to play with the kittens as well as other adult cats. He has been fixed, vaccinated, and micro-chipped. He is an all-around good boy. His adoption fee is $100. Visit our website at https://www.dekalbanimalsheltertn.com/ to see his picture, fill out an adoption application for him and we will call you to come in and meet him,” said Bennett.
The shelter is open Monday-Friday from 8 to 4 and Saturday from 8 to 12
