(SANTA MARIA, California) – Santa Barbara County Animal Services (SBCAS) is facing a critical situation and is reaching out to the local community for support. SBCAS is currently providing care and shelter for over 1,000 animals across their three shelters and in foster care. Despite hiring additional staff, the shelters are now out of space, making it difficult to accommodate animals in need.
SBCAS is a dedicated organization committed to the well-being of animals in Santa Barbara County, and they are now at a crossroads. With the number of animals under their care exceeding their capacity, they are faced with difficult decisions that no animal-loving community should have to endure.
