Hall County Animal Services says 23 animals rescued earlier this week from a home in Gainesville will soon be available for adoption.
The 22 dogs and one cat were pulled from the home during an eviction.
On the morning of Tuesday, Jan. 3, Hall County Animal Control responded to a call to assist with an eviction in the 700 block of Cleveland Street. There, they discovered the animals living in poor conditions.
“Any time we take in a large influx of animals, it puts a burden on our shelter capacity,” Hall County Animal Services Director Trey Garcia says. “We want to continually encourage adoptions to ensure we have space available for these types of intake situations.”
All of the animals were surrendered to the Hall County Animal Shelter and will be available for adoption in the coming days.
“Some of the cats will be housed at Petco in Cumming and some will go to PetSmart in Flowery Branch, which is a fantastic way for us to get them in front of potential adopters and keep space available in the shelter,” says Stephanie Maloch, shelter supervisor.
Those interested in adopting can visit the Hall County Animal Shelter during regular business hours, Tuesday through Saturday, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., or visit the Hall County Animal Shelter online.
