Please keep in mind if you or your family are evacuating from any of the surrounding fires we will take in your small animals at no charge. Please call us at 530-365-4521 if you have any questions. We want everyone to stay safe and not worry about their furry family members during this stressful time.
We are monitoring all of the fires across Northern California and hope everyone is staying safe. If you have been evacuated due to a fire and need assistance with boarding your pet, VCA Animal Hospitals in Northern California are offering free boarding. However, due to Covid 19, capacity may be limited and some hospitals may not be able to take in as many boarders as they would like. If you are in need, please call the specific location ahead of time to inquire about availability. Thank you.
****We wanted to remind everyone that if you or your family has to evacuate from any of the fires in our area, we are always willing to provide small animals with a safe place to stay at no charge. From our own experience we know how stressful it can be and don't want anyone to worry about the safety of their pets. If you need directions or have questions feel free to call us 530-365-4521. We wish everyone the best. ****
Please help our Gateway family find homes for their kittens. Group A consists of Grayson the gray tabby. He is the only kitten left from a litter of three that were left on our doorstep. Then we have a brother and sister one of our employees Jaimie found in Redding, they are extremely cute and unbelievably squishy! Group B is a litter of six kittens Rachel took in from a local business that had them in their ceiling vent and some had fallen down into the wall. There are four left, three boys and one girl. If you may be interested in any of them please call us at 530-365-4521.
Please help us find a home for Levi! Some of you may remember we first posted him last June. His family could no longer care for him after the camp fire. We placed him in a home that again had circumstances that they could no longer care for him. He is a very sweet 9yr old boy who needs somebody to love! Please call Gateway at 530-365-4521 if you think you may be interested.

It’s Adopt a Shelter Dog Month!
Considering adoption? Consider the “less adoptable” dogs, like Ocean. Ocean nearly lost her hind legs due to violence and abuse in Kuwait. Now, she’s found a new home thanks to VCA shelter partner Homeward Trails.

When walking or hiking, if something happens to your pet, be sure to contact your veterinarian as soon as possible. #VCApets
