Orange County Animal Services (OCAS) is facing a critical situation and is calling on the community to step up and help.
The shelter is currently caring for 215 dogs, with no empty kennels available. This overcrowding is putting a strain on the staff's ability to properly care for all the animals.
To encourage adoptions, OCAS is running two special promotions:
- "Teacher's Pet" - School employees can adopt a pet for free with work ID
- "Gold Medal Favorite" - Pets in the shelter over 4 weeks have $10 adoption fees
OCAS has also seen a surge in kittens this "Kitten Season." These young animals urgently need foster homes to thrive.
If you live in the Orange County/Central Florida area, please consider:
- Adopting a pet from OCAS
- Becoming a foster parent for a cat or kitten
- Volunteering your time at the shelter
