We have had so much fun planning this event and can\u2019t wait to see how the community reacts to it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When asked what the funds raised from this event will go towards, Caitlan said, \u201cWe have many projects planned in the coming months. We are hoping to make some additions to Quarantine, purchase more puppy banks, put the finishing touches on our new Free-Roaming Cat Room, purchase a size-appropriate washer, a shipping container for storage, and a desktop computer for our adoption\/transport office, and paint the shelter to just name a few.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MS Critterz started off their contract with big goals to say the least, and they are certainly on track to reaching those! They have a number of transports that leave every month as well as many events throughout the year to promote adoption in the community as well as raising community awareness for Spay and Neuter.
