The Eau Claire County Humane Association says it’s seeing a lot of people give up their pets.
The Association’s Addie Erdmann said yesterday that there’s usually a two to three-week wait to surrender a pet, but now that window is more than a month long.
She says the earliest someone would be able to give their pet away is December.
Erdmann says no one is sure what is driving the spike in surrenders but says there is help available for animals to make sure they are taken care of.
