Season's Greetings From the Humane Society of Ventura County

By Franki Williams

Dear Friends: As this year comes to a close, we look back on our achievements and are thankful for the support we received from the community. Every animal that found a home, received proper medical care, was given love and attention from our staff and volunteers; was made possible by your concern and generosity. There are many other services provided by your local Humane Society. We provide low cost spay and neuter services. Our Humane Educator promotes the humane treatment of all animals. Our Humane Officers respond to calls of suspected animal abuse. Our Pet Food Bank is here to support families who struggle to care for their pets. The Shelter continues to provide a safe haven for animals as they await their new forever homes. We are here when they need us the most and we are here because of your generosity. As we look forward to the coming year – our 84th – we hope you will continue to support the Humane Society of Ventura County. Our efforts to provide care and protection to animals throughout Ventura County help make this an amazing place to live.  The Board of Directors and the staff at HSVC thank you for your support! With your donations we will continue to provide compassionate care and protection to animals throughout Ventura County.

We are so grateful for the hard work that went into raising these funds. Thank you for thinking of the animals!

Help us find our dear Figaro a home for the holidays! Figaro was abandoned at the shelter back at the end of August. Figaro is a very sweet and handsome cat who we estimate is about 6 years old.
