Austin Pets Alive! is hosting a weekend-long adoption event and fundraiser. In May 2011 alone, APA! pulled 331 cats and kittens from Town Lake Animal Center, helping the shelter to reach a 93 percent save rate for their cat program. We need to keep up the momentum in order to continue to help TLAC keep this impressive rate!
The event will include:
* Two for one cat and kitten adoptions and a $25 donation for adoptions of dogs over 35 pounds
* Fundraising and foster drive with the goal of raising $22k for Kitten Milk Replacer and 100 new foster homes between today and Sunday
* Extensive training for new foster volunteers, including bottle baby feeding training sessions for unweaned kittens
* Pet Expo Silent Auction! (located at 2807 Manchaca)
