Spooky pets join the fun at the animal shelter

November 4, 2020 by Staff Writer

The Fairhaven Animal Shelter held a trick-or-treat event on Saturday, 10/31/20, from noon to 2 p.m. More than 200 people and pets showed up for treats and fun. The Wicked Witch of Fairhaven made an appearance, and treats were available for all the children, two-legged and four-legged alike. Children were also able to pet the shelter’s bunny rabbit.
