Campbelltown residents will have an opportunity to find their next best friend at the Campbelltown Animal Care Facility’s Open Day next Saturday, May 3.
From 10am to 3pm, people are invited to come and meet the facility’s friendly staff, learn more about the pet adoption process, and spend time with some furry friends who are looking for their forever home.
Discounted adoption fees will be provided on all animals on the day.
There will also be stalls from pet suppliers and animal organisations at the event, while other highlights will include a sausage sizzle and coffee vendor.
“Welcoming a new pet into your home is always a big decision and our friendly Animal Care Facility staff will be able to offer expert advice for Campbelltown residents,” says the Mayor of Campbelltown Darcy Lound.
“The Campbelltown ACF’s open day will provide a great opportunity for people to meet the wonderful animals who are hoping to find their perfect match for adoption. We’re hoping to give every pet here a warm home this winter,” Cr Lound said.
“All the animals from our facility come microchipped, health checked and registered, so adopting a furry friend from our Animal Care Facility is always a great option.”
