St. Pawtrick's Pets Of The Week: Kitty Satine & Beagle Charlotte
By Ana Bustilloz/Special to LAist
*** Every Saturday, LAist will feature an adoptable cat and dog from a different local shelter or accredited 501c3 rescue organization. Take a look at these furry bundles and consider giving them a home, or forward their faces to your friends who may be interested. ***
St. Patrick’s Day is approaching and while most people think of beer and smiling Irish eyes, animal welfare people think of cute, clever ways to co-opt. As such, Los Angeles is rife with ST. PAWTRICK’S DAY events at many shelters throughout the city.
Los Angeles Animal Services is hosting St. Pawtrick’s Day: A Green Adoption Event on March 19th from 10AM to 5PM at all six LA City Animal Care Centers. Adopters can enjoy discounted adoption fees, “Kiss the Blarney Dog” kissing booth, pet matchmakers, eco-friendly pet products, refreshments for people and pets, professional training advice, giveaways and much more.
spcaLA (Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Los Angeles) is celebrating March Madness on St. Pawtrick’s Day, Thursday March 17th offering $25 off all dog adoptions. Adoption fee includes spay or neuter surgery, microchip, vaccines, and a certificate for a free exam at a participating VCA Hospital. spcaLA operates pet adoption centers in Long Beach and Hawthorne.
The LAist Pets of the Week are from Los Angeles Animal Services. LA Animal Services operates six facilities all over Los Angeles where you can adopt, get a dog license or look for a lost pet. Today’s pets are from the West Los Angeles Animal Care Shelter.
