Welcome to our Shelter Industry Events Calendar!
Here, you’ll find a variety of webinars, learning opportunities, online meetings, and national events focused on animal sheltering and related interests. While some events are hosted by the UC Davis Koret Shelter Medicine Program, most are organized by other groups and agencies. Please note that being listed here doesn’t mean we’ve reviewed the material.
We’re here to provide you with a range of resources to help make your life easier. For more details about any event, feel free to contact the organizer directly (you’ll find their info in the event description).

One of the most important work of shelters these days is serving local communities by engaging in life-saving, humane – and legal — community cat programs (CCP) for outdoor-living cats. If you want to know about the issues, and how to do CCPs right, join us for a walk through the challenges, particulars, and legalities of community cats in California, prepared by the San Francisco SPCA’s Shelter PALS (Shelter Policy and Legal Services) program.
When it comes to community cats in California, the sheltering industry is much stronger together. Standardizing CCP operations across the state will help people, animals, and local governments, so that we can lift up communities who do not yet have them, avoid problems in communities who already have CCPs, and best position the movement to defend CCPs against any challenges.
In this 75-minute webinar, attendees will learn the factual and legal basics of community cats, how to support those programs with local ordinances, and also how to sign up your shelter for free legal support to set up or shore up the CCP in your own community.
