Santa Visits Animal Friends of the Valleys

If you are looking to adopt a pet in the Temecula, Murrieta, Menifee, Wildomar or Lake Elsinore area, please contact Animal Friends of the Valleys.

Santa made an unexpected visit today to Animal Friends of the Valleys after receiving an anonymous call. Apparently there were many pets that wanted to tell Santa what they wanted for Christmas.

Here are some of the pictures and what they most wanted. We couldn’t post all of the pictures and stories, but stop by Animal Friends of the Valleys or visit their website.

There are some of you, who might be able to make one of their dreams come true by offering them their forever home. Maybe being a foster parent would be a good fit. Love animals but can't take on the responsibility right now? Maybe spending just an hour or two a month volunteering at the shelter would work.

Other ways to help might be to drop off a bag or two of food, blankets, towels or toys. For others it might be to offer financial support in the way of donations. Whichever way you decide to support the Shelter, it will be appreciated.
