🪅Do Some Good

This spring, the City of Mobile will be distributing dresses to young Mobilians for prom, but they need your help! We are asking those willing to donate to drop off gently used formal and cocktail-style dresses at the Community Affairs office. Community Affairs will collect gowns from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday until March 15.

If you have any questions, please email [email protected].

City of Mobile, thank you for doing some good!

🐶This Baby Needs a Mommy….😺

Ryzor, Rylee, Raylee, Radley, Riff - Wags and Whiskers

From Wags and Whiskers:
This sweet litter was born to a stray mom dog that was taken in by a Good Samaritan. They kept this family safe and healthy for 6 weeks and now they have settled into foster care. They are adopting and keeping momma who is an Aussie mix. Dad is unknown! They should be medium-sized adults. They are 9 weeks and will be ready 2/7/24 once they have had 2 rounds of vaccines and are all altered. We will be reserving these sweet babies to the perfect forever homes.”

Our adoptions are NOT on a first come first serve basis and there is no fee to apply! We never state any animal is fully House-trained.

Please kindly ask folks not to litter... 😇

And know that You Are Loved.

See ya next week!

Be Good & Stay Safe.
