Cumberland County SPCA & Animal Shelter

Building a Brighter Future for the Animals in our Community

PET - A - PALOOZA

The Cumberland County SPCA is proud to announce the

3rd Annual CCSPCA Companion Carnival

September 27, 2007        10am-4pm     1244 N. Delsea Drive, Vineland     

What is the Pet -a- Palooza?

 It’s a Companion Animal Carnival that will be a day of fun activities for people and their pets.  Bring your best animal friend and your family for a little quality time together. The carnival is also a chance for the public to get to know our animal shelter and what an important role we play in the community. We’re here to educate people about what wonderful pets shelter or rescue animals make, and what it takes to be a responsible pet owner.

We’d love to have your rescue group attend the carnival and set up a table with information about your breed/species, information on the adoption processes, and perhaps even show off a few of the animals you have available for adoption. For safety reasons we ask simply that you keep the number of animals you bring limited to the number of volunteers you have present at the event. Since this is a small fundraiser for our shelter, we will be asking that you not set out donation jars, but please feel free to bring breed/species specific items to sell (such as shirts, collars, buttons, magnets, etc) that our shelter would not be offering. All pets must be leashed no matter what type of animal they are, and owners must be able to control their pet at all times. Animals that cause a disruption will be asked to leave the carnival for everyone’s safety. REMEMBER – ONE ANIMAL PER VOLUNTEER ONLY. We ask that you bring not more than a total of 5 animals.

 Items you are welcome to bring that will NOT be supplied:

·         Crates or ex-pens to set up so that the public can view your animals, table to display information, chairs for volunteers, canopy tents to provide shade, bowls for water, etc.
