Bark Bowl Bash 2023

To honor our long standing rivalry, CARE Humane Society™ of Auburn and Tuscaloosa Metro Animal Shelter are partnering for a Bark Bowl like you have never experienced before. Our goal is to raise collectively $100,000 for the shelters in hopes to advance humane treatment and responsible ownership of companion animals and alleviation of animal suffering, a cause that is dear to the hearts of supporters of both teams.

GivingTuesday

GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement unleashing the power of radical generosity. GivingTuesday was created in 2012 as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good. Since then, it has grown into a year-round global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity.

CARE's mission is to advance humane treatment and responsible ownership of companion animals through community education, animal sheltering and adoption, and alleviation of animal suffering. This Giving Tuesday we would be honored to have your support and donation to continue our mission and good work in the community.

Support CARE this Giving Tuesday on Nov 28th (Link not active until Nov. 27th)

Employee of the Month: Christo"Phur" B.

Meet Christopher B., affectionately known as 'Phur'! With a heart as vast as his experiences, Christopher has journeyed from many areas like California to Alabama, bringing a wealth of knowledge and passion to our team. He's dedicated to making a difference in the lives of our furry friends.

In the spotlight alongside Christopher is one of his absolute favorites, Chupacabra, or 'Chupa' for short! Chupa is a sweetheart who's ready to find his forever home. He's fantastic with other dogs, kids, and might even be cat-friendly. While Chupa may be an older boy, his heart is as big as they come. Plus, don't let the diagnosis of heartworms deter you - once adopted, CARE can help cover a portion of his treatment.

Come meet Chupa and give him the loving home he deserves. Your new furry family member might just be waiting for you!

Thank you to our partner Cellairis for providing a free phone case to our Employee of the Month!
