POLICE LOGS Two weeks in January will be devoted to promot- ing boys and girls cab club work in Tehama county, it was decided at the meet- ing held in the local high school office. During this period, Frank M. Spurrier of Berkeley, assistant state leader of club activities, will show films of boys and girls club convention at Davis, especially those in the different elemen- tary schools of Tehama county. Parents of the chil- dren are to be visited with reference to joining these clubs. If clubs are formed, it is planned to have either purebred calves or those of high class grades for the work to be done. — Dec. 6, 1924 90 YEARS AGO... Calf club to be formed in county the coming month The merriest time of the year for a lot of us can be heartbreaking for many. C h a r i t i e s throughout the country know this and work even harder than usual to bring a bit of joy to those in need. While pets with homes receive an abun- dance of gifts and treats during the holiday sea- son, their shelter equiva- lents do not often receive those luxuries. Why can't we also bring a bit of good cheer to these often for- gotten homeless animals? The ultimate hope is that each shelter pet has a Home for the Holidays. However, if that does not happen, you can still help our furry friends be- lieve the world is a little kinder during this most magical of times. While most of us would love to provide something, it can be difficult. There do not seem enough hours in the day, or enough money, to achieve everything we want during this season, let alone assist a shelter animal. Doing one or more things, however, can po- tentially make a huge dif- ference in a small deso- late life. The easiest and cheap- est way is to spread the word about them. You can distribute fliers for an up- coming major adoption event like "Home for the Holidays" or information about the now-adoption- ready animals in retail stores, veterinarian offices and various other busi- nesses. Doing this has the potential to bring them one step closer to getting their forever family. If you can share a selfie, then you can share an adoptable pet profile on social media. Facebook, Twitter, Pinter- est, Instagram, to name a few, are excellent ways to help advertise the animals needing homes. If you have a car and en- joy driving, help the An- imal Care Center get an- imals to rescue facilities. By being willing to trans- port, you have the ability to increase their chance for adoption. It also frees up space at the shelter so another pet in need can have a safe place to be dur- ing this season. By helping one in this way, you are actually helping two ani- mals. The Tehama County An- imal Care Center's staff can use a great deal of help exercising and social- izing the animals. In as lit- tle as thirty minutes, once a week, taking a dog for a walk or playing with a cat will have the huge benefit of getting them ready for their new home. Working with the dogs to under- stand basics like sit, down, and leash walking con- tributes to making them more desirable to poten- tial adopters and/or res- cues. The extra benefit is that the animals adore the attention and exercise. If you are throwing a holiday party, perhaps you could ask your guests to bring something to do- nate, like those special treats or something com- fortable animals can lay on. You could, in addition, place a jar with a picture of one of the shelter pets on your desk at work and ask for sponsorship dona- tions. Sponsoring a spay or neuter will help lower the animal's adoption fee and, again, increase its chances for adoption into a warm, caring home. If you have the time and energy, take the action one step fur- ther and organize a dona- tion drive, bake sale, raf- fle, or other fundraising event. Anything raised can be designated for spe- cific uses, like purchasing scratching pads for the cats, which are special extras the county budget does not cover. Fostering may not be considered as an "easy" way to help, but it is con- sidered as one of the most vital things you can do. Temporarily opening your home to a disadvantaged animal and providing the care and love it needs truly represents the best of hol- iday spirit. It can also pro- vide you with one of the most rewarding experi- ences you may ever know. This holiday season, why not make a home- less animal's days a little brighter? Why not give them the special holidays they deserve? Every ani- mal should be able to re- ceive the joy of the sea- son, whether they have a home or not. So, while we celebrate the holidays, let's not forget our furry friends. Ronnie Casey is vice president of PETS — Pro- viding Essentials for Te- hama Shelter.
