Free Pet IDs Ahead of New Year's Eve
Pets often end up lost and at the shelter during the New Year's holiday. That's because fireworks can scare pets bad enough for them to run away. The City of Austin is offering free I.D. tags, collars and microchips to help identify pets in case they do get lost this weekend. Services will be provided at the city's new animal shelter:
Free Pet I.D. Services Friday, Dec. 30, 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 31, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Austin Animal Center 7201 Levander Loop
