Adopt An A.N.G.E.L.Foster (or sponsor if you can't foster) a dog or cat for the holidays!  How sad is it that a dog or cat doesn't have someone to love for Christmas?  Maybe, you can help.........
1.  To foster:  Just take one over the holidays!  Space is invaluable to us over the holidays since we rely on the generosity of boarding facilities that FILL up over the holidays and volunteer foster homes who may go away for a few days.  Other foster homes may have to pile up to pick up the slack. 2.  To sponsor:  We can send you pictures, give updates and give you public recognition for saving its life!  We use your money to pay its adoption fee and its vet expenses.............Priceless!
Adopt An A.N.G.E.L.Volunteer at (or pay to GET OUT OF) an Adopt An ANGEL Adoption Fair at Petco!   Adoption fairs are held every Sat and Sun from 10-5 and countless animals have found their homes this way.  Come on and pitch in!  Over time our volunteers sadly burn out if they feel that they "are in it alone."   Sometimes they just have something come up and can't make it.  When that happens our adoption fairs are in jeopardy.  These volunteers are INVALUABLE since they are the ones who really are in the trenches saving animals daily.  Show these volunteers that you care by either donating to the cause or by coming out and OFFERING THEM A DAY OFF!
