The Natchitoches Animal Shelter, located at 450 Fairgrounds Road, held a Tales to Tails Program Nov. 20. Over 20 residents and children came to read books, which were provided by the Natchitoches Parish Library’s Book Mobile. While reading books, they also helped socialize some of the dogs at the shelter. The cats got some attention too! The shelter plans on holding more of these events in warmer weather in 2019. But don’t worry if you missed this one. The public can volunteer to socialize the shelter animals at any time during the year. The public is also encouraged to come out and find a pet to adopt! Also, donations are always accepted for blankets, toys, Pedigree dog food and dog houses. For more information call 318-357-3885.
Whatever it takes for the community to see the serious needs of the homeless animals is GREAT! This event did get people to the shelter that may not have gone before. Thank you, thank you, thank you Jennifer Robertson for initiating this awesome event.
It was wonderful day! We hope that many of these babies are adopted for Christmas! Remember to adopt and don’t shop!
Awwwww, my daily dose of cute! Many thanks to all who volunteered and for the dedicated people who take care of the animals at the shelter. Have a great Thanksgiving, everybody!
