birthday.bash.2018.TOBY.jpg

Stop by the Humane Society of Ventura County between 10-3 on Saturday, June 9th to celebrate 86 years of service to Ventura County. Get a behind the scenes peek at the facility, interact with animals, tour the kennels and clinic, meet the staff, and learn about different volunteer opportunities. Bring the whole family to enjoy refreshments, participate in a treasure hunt and learn more about how YOU can make a difference in the lives of animals in need!

Humane Educator, Robin Satnick, will have a variety of activities for children along with information on responsible pet ownership. Our Humane Officers will be on hand to give you a look at the responsibilities and duties of protecting animals throughout the county. We are pleased to welcome back Firefly Ceramics and their Tiles for Tails program. For a $25 donation benefiting our new kennels, you can design your own tile that will be permanently displayed on site here at the Shelter. 

HSVC accomplishments since the opening of the Ojai Shelter in 1982:
• 20,000 cases investigated by the Humane Officers of the HSVC
•70,000 alteration surgeries on dogs and cats in our Spay & Neuter clinic
•18,000 adoptions of dogs, cats, horses and other animals
•10,000 classroom visits by our Humane Educators
•500 awareness presentations for civic groups and community organizations
•500 community outreach events attended

“The Humane Society of Ventura County has accomplished quite a bit when you add the numbers up,” said Greg Cooper, Director of Community Outreach for the HSVC. “Considering our meager budget as a private nonprofit, the HSVC continues to provide valuable services to Ventura County in an extraordinary way,” Cooper continued.

What would a visit to a shelter be without the main attraction—the animals! There will be a full house of critters available for adoption; you never know when you are going to meet your new best friend!

Special thanks to Starbucks Ojai and Walmart Oxnard for their support for our event.
