through their door. The shelter serves over 500 animals per year, with only about half being adopted or relocated, said UCAPS Board President Sandy Maguire.
Means agreed with Jackson’s sentiment, adding that the UCAPS facility, which is located at 1000 Sunset Road, can only house 300 animals at a time – a much smaller amount than the number of animals that need a home in Union County.
“I think that dogs and cats are
animals that we have for life and it’s really important to me that animals get taken care of and found a good home for,” Means said. “Part of the reasoning of even working with UCAPS is we want to give all those animals a chance to find a good home, to find a loving home and basically have a good life.”
The fundraiser will continue through until Jan. 1. For more information, visit ucapsshelter.com or the UCAPS Facebook page.
