Breakfast with
the Mayor |
| |
|
| |
PAWS was invited to attend the Mayor's Breakfast
recently to discuss community issues in the Little
Village neighborhood where our Lurie Family Spay/Neuter
clinic is located. Our clinic is the city's only
high-volume free low-cost clinic, and
one of only a few in the nation. Targeting these
services toward needy families and the areas where most
strays originate provides a real solution to pet
overpopulation. Mayor Daley and Alderman Ricardo Munoz commend
and support the outreach and services PAWS provides to
the Chicago community. |

Alderman Schulter, animal
advocate |
| |
|
| |
PAWS Chicago is so grateful to 47th Ward Alderman
Gene Schulter for creating a special task force to
improve animal care legislation in the area. The task
force consists of key animal welfare community leaders
and is working to raise animal care standards and
implement stronger penalties for those who do not
comply. Alderman Schulter plans to introduce the new pet
care ordinance to City Council in the near future.
Ordinance details are available at www.ward47.com.
