The City of Burleson Animal Shelter is almost full again.
Recently, the shelter was nearly cleared out thanks to the Clear the Shelter event but that didn’t last long.
“Clear the Shelter event was great, but within a short amount of time the shelter was back to capacity,” Animal control officer Teri Bridwell said.
The shelter is always seeking donations such as cat litter, pet food, laundry detergent, bleach, towels and blankets. There are also year-long sponsorships of kennels in which you can sponsor a kennel for a cat or dog in your name, your business name, or in remembrance of a loved one. Currently there is one kennel sponsored in the loving memory of a fallen veteran.
With sponsorship of a kennel you get a plaque displaying your name or business name and a logo placed on the kennel for one year. You also receive a certificate of sponsorship and your name or business name will be posted on the shelter website and will be highlighted on social media.
The sponsorship of cat kennel costs is $150. The sponsorship of a dog kennel costs $250 and the sponsorship of the dog play yard costs $750.
