CAPS Updates on Appointments, Donations

CAPS Updates on Appointments, Donations

Churchill Animal Protective Society (CAPS) remains open by appointment only as the shelter undergoes extensive interior construction. Community members interested in adopting a pet or seeking information are encouraged to contact staff via email at [email protected] to schedule an appointment.

In addition, CAPS is currently clearing out storage sheds and is temporarily pausing donations of linens, including blankets, towels, and dog beds. Those unsure whether an item is needed should email the shelter for guidance. Due to ongoing construction, all donations must be scheduled in advance to ensure donor safety. The shelter is currently most in need of pet food, Kong treats for enrichment, snacks for volunteers, bleach, printer paper, and monetary contributions. CAPS staff expressed gratitude to its dedicated community of workers, volunteers, and local businesses that have provided support during the renovation process. “Thank you for putting extra time and effort into helping us make CAPS an even safer place for animals,” Krista Swager said. For more information or to schedule a donation or adoption appointment, contact CAPS at [email protected].

Comment author: Jane HiattComment text: I just adored this man and his kindness and calm manner. I remember doing live interviews on KVLV when I sang with the Lahontan Valley Concert Choir and wanted to get the word out to the public on our performances in the valley. Since 1972, Mike and Dee have been among my most treasured friends. I will certainly miss him knowing he isn't there anymore.Comment publication date: 2/16/25, 8:34 AMComment source: Obituary - Joseph Marvin “Mike” McGinnessComment author: KelliComment text: I'd use firm. Press it for a bit (drain and put a plate on top) to squeeze out some of the moisture. Then crumble it up and add instead of the chorizo.Comment publication date: 2/15/25, 12:34 PMComment source: What’s Cooking in Kelli’s Kitchen - Cheesy Green Chile Bean BakeComment author: James SmackComment text: Sorry to hear about Mike, and thank you for sharing your memories. While I did not know him as well, I have to echo the community and especially his family have lost a great man.Comment publication date: 2/14/25, 9:37 PMComment source: Captain's Log - The People Who Make UsComment author: Derk PalfreymanComment text: I started as an outrider on his July wagon train in 1980. Dean had me dive a four up on the September train that same year. In 1981 I spent a week working as a swing outrider when he ran his famous 20 up in the Carson City parade. He taught me how to hitch and drive multiple teams. We had a great relationship and never a crossword. I will always appreciate his patience and great sense of humor.
