January Adoption Open House
On Saturday, 30 January, 2010, LAWS held its second Adoption Open House at the LAWS Shelter. Although the rain made the kennels muddy quite a few families came to see the animals. Thanks to LAWS members Claudia, Siobhan and Gilly for running the show and assisted 6 dogs in finding new homes. Thanks also to LAWS members Fiona, Diep and Chrys for managing the LAWS stand at the Dutch Reformed Church Saturday Crafts Market on the same day, where 4 kittens and 1 adult cat found new homes. Read more about the animals that were adopted in the February 2010 newsletter! Please we still have too many cats, kittens, dogs and puppies available for adoption, so call us if you can offer any of them a home.
