Mark your calendars we will be out running again for a good cause Thanksgiving morning, Thursday November 28th for the annual Turkey Trot.
The race will start at 8am at the Annaberg parking lot. Registration will begin at 715am. We recommend car pooling as parking is very limited. As in years past there will be a 3 mile race for adults and a 1 mile race for the littles. There will be water stations located on each race course.
The registration fee is a donation of dog/ cat food supplies and treats, no cash please.
We hope to see a good turnout and what better way to start the day before we all enjoy some good food and friends!!!!
Once again huge thank you to Peter Alter for putting this all together and his continued support of the ACC.
This guy was found Friday on Centerline near Supreme Corner. He has a light green collar and it had 2 broken lead hooks and a third hook attached to it.
He is so friendly and seems like he’s house trained. He’s black with white on his chest and belly and has not been neutered.
If you recognize this dog please contact us. Phone 340-774-1625, email info@stjacc.org or pm our Facebook page.
It is the final countdown till we kick off the largest spay/neuter event ever to happen on St. John.
From November 8-11 from 8am-3pm at the GHS upper campus Gym with the wonderful help of Visiting Veterinarians International the ACC will be offering free spay/neuter to dog and cat owners on St. John. AGAIN IT IS FREE TO THE PUBLIC! If you would like to get your pet spay/neutered you can show up on any of these dates from 8am-3pm with your pet. You do not need to make a reservation, it is first come first serve, and you are required to wait with your pet while they are spay/neutered and come out of recovery.
The ACC will also be trapping a large number feral cats across the island, and we are preparing for hundreds of cats for this event.
We will be working around the clock from Wednesday-Monday. If you stop by the office, call or send a message and we are slow to respond we will do our best to get back to you ASAP. If you stop by the office and its closed we are either out trapping or up at the event at GHS.
We are still collecting donations for this event to make it as successful as possible, and hopefully provide more events like this in the future. www.stjohnanimalcarecenter.com/donate/
Thank you to Visiting Veterinarians International , Gifft Hill School, and all donors who have made this event possible.
How can I help?!?!?
