During the months of July through December, 2023, the Animal Care Center held seven (7) no-cost vaccine and microchipping clinics in Tehama County.

The thirteen (13) clinics held were a huge success and as a result, 441+ cats and 598+ dogs were seen for clinic services, 897+ of which were microchipped. All grant funds have been expended.
