ACS officials said one of the adoption buildings has been completely cleared thanks to the support of the community.

“We continue operating (by appointment only) and are taking advantage of clearing out one of our buildings for deep cleaning,” officials said in the Facebook post.

Due to the coronavirus pandemic, some processes have temporarily changed at ACS, including intake and pet surrenders.

Residents are asked to call 311 if they find a roaming pet and ACS is not currently accepting owner surrender pets “unless for euthanasia for severe medical,” according to officials.
