November will be a busy month for The Haven! On Saturday, November 1 The Haven will hold its monthly adoption event at Pet Supermarket in Daphne, from 11am to 3pm. They will be on-sight with many wonderful cuddly dogs and cats that will be transported by the Haven’s Mobile Adoption Rescue Unit (MARU) with The Haven’s life-saving team available to help potential adopters find the perfect match for their family. The following Saturday, Nov. 8, from 11am to 3pm, they will be at their usual “2nd Chances on 2nd Saturday” of the month at PetSmart. Then, the 501 c(3) no-kill shelter will end the month by joining together with other local animal rescue groups to participate in PetSmart Charities National Adoption Week-end scheduled Friday, November 14 – 16 also held at the Eastern Shore Shopping Plaza from 11am to 3pm. in Spanish Fort.
“We are grateful and excited to have the support from these partners as we work together to create a no-kill Baldwin County,” says Michael Graham, executive director of The Haven. Graham continues: “MARU is our shelter on wheels and thanks to volunteers and supporters like Pet Supermarket and PetSmart, we can continue to hit the pavement in efforts to increase adoptions and reduce pet overpopulation.”
