OSHKOSH, WI (WTAQ) — The Oshkosh Area Humane Society (OAHS) is asking the public to help “Clear Out the Shelter” by adopting or fostering the homeless animals in its care, in order to prepare for upcoming renovations.
The shelter is planning to resurface the flooring in a few rooms, as well as complete other renovations beginning April 22. The shelter has not done any renovations to its current facility, located at 1925 Shelter Court in Oshkosh, since moving to the location 19 years ago.
The community is asked to consider adopting or fostering one of the cats, dogs, rabbits or small animals in its care, to help the animals get out of the shelter so that they do not have to endure the stress of the loud noises, dust, permeating smells and other commotion and activities that will result from the upcoming renovations. Currently, the shelter has 118 cats, 30 dogs, 5 rabbits and 6 rodents looking for homes.
If community members are unable to adopt or foster a pet at this time, they are asked to help by sharing social media posts from the OAHS Facebook and OAHS Instagram pages.
