Welcome to the Feb. 2 issue of Shelter Scoop - news from Pima Animal Care Center

On January 28, our non-profit partner Friends of PACC celebrated their 10^th anniversary. Without FOP we could not do the significant, life-saving work we do at PACC. We’re grateful for their ongoing support and care for our pets.

To help celebrate, Dogs-n-Donuts' put together over 200 cupcakes for the pups and several dozen treats for our cats. You can see them laid out on the table in our adoptions lobby – waiting for eager ‘customers.’

Soon Chickpea arrived – and the cupcake didn’t last long once she recognized that it was available.

The celebration was Dog-n-Donuts way of joining us in thanking FOP for their hard work and strong partnership.

We have the mobile medical unit thanks to FOP. That truck provides hundreds of free medical procedures out in the community each year.

Over a dozen Pet Support staff are funded by FOP. Those employees are busy every day working to keep pets in peoples’ homes and out of the shelter.

FOP provided the significant financial support that is allowing us to open an eastside adoptions center. And so much more…

Huge thanks to FOP for their work at PACC – and huge thanks to Dog-n-Donuts for their part in helping our pups (and cats) join in the celebration.

They’re located close to where we’ll be when we open on the east side – 7743 E. Broadway. I suspect we may have some of their treats when we cut that ribbon!
