October Brings Some Fun to the ESPCA Community!

Author: Megan Lavicky

October is National Pitbull Awareness Month, and the ESPCA Dog Team has been turning up the charm and spotlighting what they lovingly call “Block-Headed” Beauties and Beaus. They’ve been hard at work debunking myths about the breed and showing how fun, friendly, and family-oriented these adoptable babies are. 

Brick is one “Block-Head” at the shelter with some Labrador Retriever mixed in. He loves playing in the water and, after some rain, was allowed to splash in the giant puddles close to the shelter with one of ESPCA’s volunteer dog walkers. Meet Brick today!

October is Black Cat Awareness Month, and the ESPCA Cat Team has started highlighting some of these sleek beauties. Black kitties often get a bad wrap because of superstitions, but the ESPCA black kitties are here to change those hearts and minds. Some super sweet and friendly cats are just waiting to be an addition to your family.

BISSELL’s Fall National Empty the Shelters reduced-fee adoption event continues until October 15th. You can bring a spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped pet home for $50 from the ESPCA campus or one of our offsite adoption events.

Please consider opening your heart and home to a shelter pet!

The ESPCA Garage Sale benefiting the animals is October 20th and 21st from 8 AM until 5 PM at 2818 W. Walnut in Enid. It will be another big sale run by ESPCA volunteers with unique finds and many nice holiday items. Past garage sale earnings have purchased much-needed storage, special walking harnesses, and other essentials around the shelter. Supporting the animals by shopping at the sale is a fun way to help the animals.

The ESPCA Trunk or Treat at Jacksons of Enid will be on October 28th from 11 AM until 3 PM. This event helps bring awareness to the adoptable pets at the ESPCA. You can participate in the fun by calling Coraline at the ESPCA office at 580-233-1325.
