• Kansas State University recommendations are being prioritized and added to the City of Wichita- Government's Capital Improvement Plan and budget
• Reclaim fees will be capped at $150
• Increased social media presence
• Full-time kennel technicians w/ benefits
• Animal services will be included in COMSTAT meetings
Cpt. Aaron Moses talked about WAS being legally unable to move any sick animal with a contagious or infectious illness to another shelter or rescue for treatment, which previously had not been enforced.
He also mentions the difficulties in returning animals home without a microchip (over 7% of animals coming in have one). The shelter has seen an increase in animals since the pandemic (a nationwide problem) while facing less reclaims from owners and direct adoptions. WAS does microchipping for only $15 per pet, so please take advantage of that service! All they ask is that you call 316-350-3360 ahead of time to ensure someone trained is available.
