Your Old Newspapers Could Help Animals in Need

Do you read the newspaper? Mesa County Animal Services, 971A Coffman Road, desperately needs your old newspapers to provide comfort and cleanliness to animals, and your donations could make a big difference in the lives of local shelter animals.

It is a constant struggle for animal services to get enough papers from staff and supporters to line crates and catch waste from puppies who still need to learn good potty habits. 

“We constantly need newspapers,” Animal Services Manager Doug Frye said. “Anyone willing to donate old newspapers can drop them off at our office. We are open Monday through Friday, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.”

Animal services appreciates the community's continued support in caring for the animals of Mesa County.
