Humane Society plans Oct. 3 celebration
By Rob Ruth
Wallowa County Chieftain
ENTERPRISE — Wal-
lowa County Humane So-
ciety has been operating its
Information Center at 104 N.
River St. for nearly a full year
now, and the decades-old
group is inviting the public to
come in Oct. 3 to help cele-
brate.
Saturday’s event, which
runs from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m.
or possibly later, is actually
multi-focused,
combining
recognition of the Society’s
volunteers with an “adoption
extravaganza” which may in-
clude a chance to see all the
adoptable animals currently
in foster homes.
Carol Vencill, a longtime
of¿cer with the organization,
said any adopters that day
will take part in a drawing
to determine their reduced
adoption fee levels, ranging
from $5 to $35 for a cat, and
from $5 to $45 for a dog. Cat
and dog adoptions are nor-
mally priced at $40 and $50,
respectively.
But even if a person isn’t
interested in adopting, the
open house is a good oppor-
tunity to just come in, enjoy
some ¿nger food or a slice of
specially made cake, and talk
to Humane Society members
about what the group’s up to.
One ongoing effort, pos-
sibly a long-range one, is to
raise enough money to estab-
lish a sanctuary, which would


both relieve some of the pres-
sure on the limited number of
foster homes, and provide an
excellent setting for people
to interact naturally with pro-
spective pets.
On the more immediate
horizon, Vencill says, the So-
ciety plans to schedule more
of the winter classes on var-
ious pet-related topics that
proved popular at the Infor-
mation Center last year. The
group may also soon begin
having adoptable cats avail-
able to meet at the center all
three days it’s open, rather
than Saturdays only. The
center’s regular public hours
are from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.,
Thursday, Friday and Satur-
day.
The Society is a support
source for pet owners, and
also helps the community as
a whole through such efforts
as a continual trap-and-re-
lease program to stabilize
feral cat colonies. The Soci-
ety’s mission is to decrease
the population of unwanted
animals through spay/neuter
and education.
And a couple more things
about that Oct. 3 open house:
Vencill says there will be
door prizes, and author Mary
Moe will be signing copies of
her children’s book, “Rodeo
Dogs,” from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
“We’re hoping to get peo-
ple to come in and see our fa-
cility and have a good time,”
she says.
