Happy Friday end-of-day update from Care! 🐾

Today was a big one! We welcomed 2 new intakes, had 6 animals transferred out, and celebrated 6 adoptions! Huge congratulations to Honey Bunches, Frisco, Fresno, Arrietty, Wilt, and a very special shoutout to Barbie, who waited an incredible 287 days to finally find her forever home.

Our Empty the Shelters event is still going strong! From December 1–15, we’re proud to partner with BISSELL Pet Foundation to help even more animals find loving homes. During this event, all altered animals have special adoption fees—dogs are $0 and cats are $50. It truly is the perfect time to welcome a new best friend into your family at a lower cost while also supporting rescue animals in need.

Looking for other ways to help this holiday season? Be sure to check out our recent post to see how you can sponsor a shelter pet ornament for just $5, helping support a pet in our care. You can also take a look at our foster bucket list—we are in urgent need of foster homes, now more than ever, to give our animals a warm, loving place to stay during the holidays.

📌 Reminder: We will be closed tomorrow, but we’ll be back open Sunday from 12 to 5 PM. You can also visit us anytime online to view adoptable pets, foster opportunities, and ways to support Care. Thank you for being part of our community and helping us make happy endings possible! 🐶🐱💙

🐾 Meet Mara Jade — Your New Best Friend! 🐾

Mara Jade is the sweetest big girl with an even bigger heart. 💖 She’s loyal, playful, and bursting with love! Whether she’s giving welcome-home kisses, watching her favorite YouTube shows 🎥, or heading out for a fast-paced walk (she lives for those!), Mara is always ready to bring joy, energy, and affection to your life.

Her fosters say she’s an absolute angel — crate-trained, housebroken, loves her toys, and adores being near her people (personal space? never heard of it 😄). She’s goofy, smart, and full of personality — truly the whole package.

Come meet your shadow, snuggle buddy, and walking partner all in one!

🐾❤️ Why Foster for CARE? Here’s Why It Matters. ❤️🐾

Now more than ever, we rely on the compassion of our community to help save lives. Fostering is one of the most powerful ways you can make an immediate difference for shelter pets—and it’s easier than you think.
✨ You make room during critical times.
Our shelter is full, and foster homes are urgently needed. When you foster, you create space for another pet who needs safety right now.
✨ We provide everything you need.
From food and medical care to basic essentials, CARE covers it all. You simply open your home and heart.
✨ You help pets become more adoptable.
In a home setting, pets learn routines, build confidence, and show their true personalities—making it easier for them to find their perfect forever family.
✨ You save lives.
Every single foster home frees up a kennel, allowing us to say “yes” to another animal in need. You truly become the reason a pet gets their second chance.
Fostering changes lives—and yours could be the home a pet has been waiting for.
