Atlas Is One Very Busy Cat!

Posted on by PAHS Staff

Atlas, a super-friendly adoptable cat at SVACA (Silicon Valley Animal Control Authority in Santa Clara), has been especially busy with volunteer activities throughout the month of March. He’s participated in several outreach sessions organized through our PAHS–SVACA partnership.

Here’s Atlas, at a recent (March 30) Critter Club session with the Beyond the Bell after-school program at Monta Loma Elementary in Mountain View, in which participating students learned about cat care and cat body language, as well as rescue operations aimed at finding good homes for adoptable cats. Thank you, Atlas, for helping us to bring valuable information about cats to our Critter Club students!

The Palo Alto Humane Society is a 501(c) 3 nonprofit, charitable, volunteer-supported organization. PAHS is one of the few humane societies nationwide with no animal shelter. Instead of managing animals inside a shelter, we work to keep animals out of the shelter through humane programs in intervention, advocacy, and education. For a century, our mission has been to alleviate the suffering of animals, increase public sensitivity to animal issues, and elevate the status of animals in our society.
