Jayden @ Petsmart Jayden DeBerry helped his grandmother, Sara DeBerry (President of CCAC), with an adoption day @ PetSmart.  They took 2 kittens and 2 pups.  One kitten was adopted, and had some potential adopters for the others.  It was a good day of making contacts.  They gave out one spay certificate for a dog that a couple had rescued along with her pups.

Noah
CCAC, Inc. presented Noah Thornton (student @ Woodstation) with a Certificate of Apprection for his dedication the summer of 2008 in walking one of the group’s rescues, Cocoa, on a weekly basis.  She is currently being boarded until finding her forever home.   Noah loves animals, and this contribution of showing compassion to a homeless pet is greatly appreciated.   In addition to giving Cocoa exercise, the contact benefits her socialization.   THANKS NOAH!
