The Department of Animal Services set a goal at the beginning of the year – to save 5,000 more felines in its care during 2024. To meet this goal, the department is decreasing humane euthanasia of cats and significantly increasing transfers to rescue partners, paving the way for the department to near the goal of its 5,000 Cat Challenge.

Additionally, the agency is saving more cats through its pet support program, diverting cats into foster homes or providing critical low-cost or free spay and neuter surgeries for community cats.

“As a result of our collective efforts, more than 4,000 cats have been saved, which is approximately 80 percent of our goal,” said Supervisor Yxstian Gutierrez, Fifth District. “We are urging the public to help us reach this important milestone in the campaign’s final two months. If you can open your home to foster or adopt a cuddly cat, visit us today.”

Hey RivCo community! We have some lost pups at our shelter looking for their way back home! If you’re missing a furry friend or know someone who is, please check our website or visit your local RivCo Animal Shelter. We may have found your lost dog, and they’re eager to be reunited with their family! These cute faces can be found at the Western Riverside County/City Animal Shelter located at 6851 Van Buren Blvd, in Jurupa Valley.

This is also a reminder about the importance of microchipping! A microchip is a simple, effective way to ensure your pet can always find their way back to you. It’s quick, painless, and could be the difference between losing your pet and a happy reunion. Let’s keep our fur babies safe!

The cuteness overload is here! Meet our friend Pip.

Pip came into the Western Riverside County/City Animal Shelter with his sister in July 2024 as 3 weeks old. A kind soul came into the shelter and decided to bottle feed the kittens. She worked very diligently to find homes for the two. Pip's sister was adopted by one of her friends, while Pip found his home with the person who was caring for them.

Pip is doing very well and is thriving. He loves his new mommy and will say hello with nose boops. Thank you so much for all your efforts to help Pip's sister a loving home and for opening your home up to Pip!
