Via Nina Caputo, the Volunteer Coordinator at our beloved Humane Society of Sonoma County:
Well, it’s weird. And eerily quiet. We don’t like it!
I wanted to let you all know that the staff here walked dogs and hung out with buns and cats today. We were happy to do it and enjoyed the snuggles! But we miss you.
Some news to share -
~ We’re very pleased to share this bit of good news, official as of today:
We are once again winners of the North Bay Bohemian’s Best of the North Bay Awards for Best Animal Adoption Center (6th year!!) and Best Charity Event (4th year!!). This is thanks to your support, dedication and all you do every day for the animals. To be recognized by our community so many years running is truly something to be proud of. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for doing your part on our team!
~ Our homepage and facebook has been updated with Covid-19 restriction info. Please check here periodically, as this is where updates will be posted:

We will be here for the animals – many of you have generously asked how you can help us. Our greatest needs right now are food for our free Pet Food Pantry and donations to support the cost of care for the animals.
~ Finally, I thought I’d share some resources in case you are bored at home and need some form of animal connection. You can search these online links for areas that interest you, there are likely free webinars available for whatever you are interested in!
(also check attached funny movie clip, because we need some humor right now J )

Stay home, stay healthy,
