Pick up your holiday ornament to benefit homeless animals today

You have the opportunity to celebrate your feline or K9 while supporting a great cause through the Mission Viejo Animal Services Center’s “Holiday Tree of Memories.”

The tree is adorned with ornaments decorated by members of our community. Some were etched with tributes to pets adopted from the shelter, while others pay homage to those no longer with us.

You can pick up your ornament at the Mission Viejo Animal Services Center at 28095 Hillcrest during business hours to decorate today. The facility will accept donations in any amount for the ornaments and all proceeds will benefit the Dedicated Animal Welfare Group (DAWG).  This is the nonprofit fundraising arm of the center that provides medical care and helping hands to comfort sick, injured, neglected and scared animals that arrive at the shelter.
