Placer County Animal Services Needs Our Help!
Placer County Animal Services has been inundated with animal evacuees due to the Mosquito fire. Placer SPCA is working in partnership to support them as they work around the clock to provide shelter to animals during this time of crisis. We are asking the community to donate items that Placer County Animal Services desperately needs to provide care to the animals they are sheltering.
