Come out to Citrus County Animal Services on Saturday, May 9, for a special Open

House/Pet Adoption Event from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm. The animal shelter is located in In-

verness at 4030 S Airport Rd. - behind the Citrus County Fairgrounds, off U.S. Hwy. 41.

The event is sponsored by the Citrus County Foundation for Animal Protection and hosted

by shelter volunteers.

For this special event, not only will pet adoptions be priced very reasonably - at

only $10 for dogs and $5 for cats - you will have the opportunity to win dog/cat gift baskets

if you donate animal food, plus music, games, snacks and sodas, dog parades, tours to see

the new shelter renovations, pet agility equipment demonstrations; information about shelter

volunteering, pet fostering, training and general pet care; and more! For additional informa-

tion, call the animal shelter at 352-746-8400.
