The Why Behind the ‘Goodbye’: Preventing Pet Surrenders
Instructor: Hannah Page, Ingham County Animal Control & Shelter
From Conflict to Cooperation: How to Turn Community Cat Skeptics into Supporters
Instructor: Holly Thoms, Capital Area Humane Society
Guest Speaker: Amanda Foster, Human Animal Support Services
Ingham County invites you to a one-day workshop on Sunday, September 21, brought to you by Michigan Pet Alliance. Explore the human side of animal surrender and how proactive, compassionate community outreach can keep pets in loving homes where they belong. Community cat programs often face resistance from neighbors, businesses and even local officials. This session will equip you with strategies to navigate tough conversations, address common concerns with facts and turn skeptics into allies. Learn how to foster understanding, build trust and create a more supportive community for humane cat management.
