Forget-Me-Not, Inc. Partners with Manatee County Animal Services for 'Clear the Shelter'

From Forget-Me-Not, Inc.:

Forget-Me- Not, a 501c3 animal rescue, is partnering with MCAS for a “Clear the Shelter” adoption event. The partnership of these two organizations is inspired by the Community Foundation of Sarasota’s 24-hour 2016 Giving Challenge.

Debbie Woosley, president of Forget-Me-Not, stated, “The Giving Challenge is a great opportunity for us to work together with MCAS and debunk the myths surrounding pit bull-like dogs. MCAS is currently at capacity, and we wish to do our part to help find loving homes for the shelter pets.”

Clear the Shelter is scheduled for Friday, Sept. 16 and Saturday, Sept. 17 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at both the Palmetto Shelter (305 25th St. West, 34221) and Downtown Adoption Center in Bradenton (cats only at 1002 Manatee Ave. West, 34205). Regular adoption fees are waived. All adoptions include spay/neuter, microchip and rabies certificate. Manatee County residents are required to license their new pet for $15. Manatee County Animal Shelter can be reached at (941) 742-5933.
