Sacramento Animal Care Services are Having a Black Cat Special

Published by sara under Good Deals

Beginning on March 11, 2009, the City of Sacramento Animal Care Services is offering half off adoption fees for Black Cats throughout the month of March.  Black Cat Special kind of reminds me of a K Mart blue light special, really good price, but it won’t last.  You not only get a cat, it will be spayed or neutered and comes with microchip, city license, collar, carrier box, cat litter, and cat food; all this would cost about $200 and you pay only $32.50.  Just remember this March special is only for Black Cats, but if black cats aren’t really for you they have lots of other animals that need a home.  If you can give a home to one of these animals that need to be adopted click on this link for City of Sacramento Animal Care Services.  Maybe you can’t take one home but would like to volunteer to help the City of Sacramento with animal care you can also find out how by going to City of Sacramento Animal Care Services.

It’s Arbor Week in California

Published by sara under Free Stuff, Go Green, Good Deals

Most states have Arbor Day (a day set aside for planting trees), but since California has the California Redwood as its state tree and is home to the world’s tallest and world’s largest tree, we need a whole week for this celebration of trees which is March 7-14, 2009.  Since Sacramento is also known as “the city of trees” this especially important to us.  The city of Sacramento even has an Urban Forestry page on their website, click on the link for all sorts of tree planting info.

The best deal in town for adding shade to cool down that summer heat is from SMUD who has partnered with Sacramento Tree Foundation to give free shade trees to Sacramento residents.  I told you about free trees from SMUD last year and it’s still happening.  Check out the SMUD website for all the info to get your free tree.
