If you are evacuating your home, take your pets with you. Pets cannot fend for themselves during disasters and leaving them behind can risk both their lives and those of rescuers. Leave early and don’t wait for mandatory evacuation orders. #SorrentoFire

A major rescue operation continues for hundreds of animals. @sdhumane society started saving the animals from a sanctuary in Julian on Friday. They say this is one of the largest and most complex cases they have ever seen. @ealvareznews @fox5sandiego @KUSINews #SanDiego fox5sandiego.com/news/local-…

Hundreds of animals — from more than 160 horses to over 225 cats and dozens of other species — are at the center of a massive, multi-day rescue operation at a Julian animal sanctuary, where crews are working around the clock to evaluate, treat and relocate them. “Our teams are continuing the complex work of evaluating, treating and moving animals off the property,” the San Diego Humane Society said. “While some animals appear healthy and stable, many were found suffering without adequate care and husbandry.” The effort, involving multiple agencies and dozens of responders, is stretching resources as crews process new arrivals, conduct medical exams and transport animals to facilities across the region. “Our absolute priority remains the health and safety of every animal on the property,” the agency said. Officials say the operation could continue for several more days as teams work through the sheer number of animals discovered on the 40-acre site. Story link in comments.

AB 2010 (the SNIP Act) has passed out of the Assembly Business & Professions Committee — bringing us closer to expanding access to high-quality spay & neuter services statewide. By removing barriers while maintaining standards, this legislation helps address pet overpopulation.

Right now, a pair of male black bear cubs is safe and receiving care at our Ramona Wildlife Center! Our skilled team of wildlife veterinarians performed a comprehensive exam & found the brothers to be in good health. Because they’re so young, they’ll need months of extensive care
