April 17 – 23, 2023, is National Pet ID Week and April 23, 2023, is Lost Dog Awareness Day!  

Did you know that one in three pets will wander off at some point in their lifetime? Once a pet is lost, only about 10 percent will be reunited with their family. Losing a pet is a frightening moment, but thankfully, there are ways to get pets home faster!   

A license tag provides a quick and accurate way of helping furry family members find their way home. Additionally, it is required by law in Orange County for all dogs over the age of four months to be licensed and vaccinated against rabies, which a license tag also provides proof of. 

When licensing pets through OC Animal Care, residents will receive a PetHub License tag which allows pet owners to create a free online profile for their pet. The profile contains information such as the pet’s name, breed, age, medications, allergies, owner’s contact information, and much more. Anyone finding the pet can scan the tag’s QR code and see the pet’s information made public by its owner to help reunite the pet and its owner sooner.

Pets currently licensed with OC Animal Care will also qualify for OC Animal Care's Take Me Home Program. This pet redemption program is offered to pet owners who have had their licensed pets impounded for the first time and requires pet owners to redeem their pet(s) within the first 24 hours. 

For more information on how to license your pet, visit ocpetinfo.com/license or contact OC Animal Care’s Licensing Department Monday to Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at (714) 259-1091. Pet owners can also email ACSLicensing@occr.ocgov.com for assistance.

Spring has sprung at OC Animal Care! Throughout the month of April 2023, adoption fees are waived for dogs 25 pounds and over. Since the start of the adoption promotion, OC Animal Care has seen a consistent increase in adoptions for dogs 25+ pounds compared to the same months the previous year. OC Animal Care is excited to extend the promotion so our medium- to large-sized dogs can find their forever best buddy!

The adoption promotion is available to residents of any city. With over 400 adoption visits available per week, potential adopters can pre-schedule a visit by calling (714) 935-6848 or drop by for a walk-in visit. Walk-ins are welcomed on a first-come, first-served basis as staffing allows.

The waived fees include microchipping, vaccinations, spaying or neutering, and an anti-parasite treatment. Waived adoption fees do not include licensing fees or puppies six months of age or younger.

H.E.A.R.T. is hosting a mobile cat spaying/neutering clinic for $25 for cat owners. 

Appointments are required. Please call (714) 993-9193 or email heart4petsappointments@gmail.com to make your appointment.
