NAME THAT CRITTER CONTEST - Deadline November 1, 2008
September 1, 2008
We have a new logo! The new logo features a dog, cat and a bird. Each one is packed-up with luggage and sacks ready to make the transition to their new homes and families. The tag-line reads, "... on a journey". Each mascot represents the types of guests the Humane Society transitions daily to new families - dogs, cats and small animals.

We need your help to give each of these new mascots a name and a personality. You may pick-up entry forms at the Humane Society.

Deadline for entry is November 1, 2008.
