Just a reminder that there are great resources out there for you and your pets. Thanks to low cost vaccination clinics it is now affordable to have multiple pets.
The Humane Society of Charlotte located at 2646 Toomey Ave, Charlotte, NC 28203 has their Critter Care Clinic every Wednesday from 8:00–1:00. There is no appointment necessary. From my experience, there is very little wait if you go closer to noon.
Stand for Animals is located at 224 W 32nd St, Charlotte, NC 28206 also has a Wellness Wednesday with low cost vaccinations. Appointments can be made online. They typically they are very good about staying on schedule. You may have to schedule 2-3 weeks out.

Both clinics sell heartworm prevention and will microchip your dog for around $20.
Did you know that Animal Care and Control Officers don’t want to take your lost dog to the shelter? If your dog is wearing a tag or is microchipped, Officers will bring your dog home rather than to the shelter. This saves you the citation fee of getting your dog out of the shelter and a lot of unnecessary stress on you and your pet. A tag with your info and/or a microchip is definitely worth it.
Feral cats can get fixed for free! Mon, Tues, Thurs, and Fri. at the Gary t deLisser Spay/Neuter Clinic (Animal Care and Control) located at 8315 Byrum Drive, Charlotte, NC 28217 Cats must be brought to the clinic in a trap and must have a carrier to be put in after surgery. Check-in is at 8:00am and pick up is at 3:00. No appointment necessary.
It is recommended to bring your pets inside when its 40 degrees or colder. Pets get cold too and can develop hypothermia and frostbite. A crate is an easy solution for bringing dogs inside at night. If your pet spends lot of time outside, please make sure their shelter is packed with dry straw. This can be purchased at Home Depot for about $6 a bale.
If you are in need of additional or no cost spay/neuter resources please feel free to contact me and I will be happy to direct you. cate1868@yahoo.com

While it may be hard to fathom after last month, but fall is coming (maybe winter too, but you never know). Our region is great for fall and winter gardening. Once the heat of the summer fades away we have many months of cooler weather. …
The Garden is a true community effort and below is a list of items it will need – if you have an item that you think you could donate to the Garden for community use feel free to email organizers.
As some of you may be aware the city has granted usage of properties cleared by the city because of the propensity to flood on Harbinger Court. Last summer (2012), a committee of volunteers began meeting to work on the details and get a Community …
