Mobile Mutts & Meows

Sara says Mobile Adoptions are Swell!

Summer is in full swing and so is the Mobile Adoption season.  That means that the Second Chance Humane Society’s Mobile Mutts & Meows RV (or should we call it the AV for Animal Vehicle?) is on the road.  What does that mean for the Pet Column readers?  It means if you aren’t able to get to the Second Chance Shelter in Ridgway to adopt new love into your life – we are coming to you. 

Second Chance is the only humane society serving San Miguel and Ouray Counties, and the distance to the Ridgway shelter can make a long drive for residents in communities like Telluride, Norwood, or Mountain Village.  Transporting homeless pets like me to different community events and festivities throughout both counties increases our accessibility to the public and often times helps us to find a new home when otherwise we would be sitting at the shelter waiting for someone to come to us.

You can find Mobile Mutts & Meows at the Telluride & Ridgway Farmers Markets as well as at various festivals and larger public venues such as the Ski Swaps in the autumn.  Also if you are hosting an event that you think would make a great setting for adoptions please give us a call at 979.626.2273. 

I personally, as the cutest kitten at the shelter, look forward to cruising in the AV soon.  Not only does it expand homeless pet’s exposure to the public but it also gives us a fun day outside of the shelter environment where we are ooohed and aaahhed upon by all sorts of interesting people.  I hope to see you out there!

My name is Sara and I am one of many homeless kittens currently awaiting my new family here at the Second Chance Shelter.  Life is short, Adopt a Cat.
