They will be received by staff and volunteers from Berkeley Humane, East Bay SPCA, Forgotten Felines, Friends of the Alameda Animal Shelter, Humane Society of Silicon Valley, Humane Society of Sonoma County, Marin Humane, North Bay Animal Services, Pets Lifeline, Placer SPCA, Sacramento SPCA, Santa Cruz SPCA and Tony La Russa’s Animal Rescue Foundation.
