Santa Paws is Coming to Town

Boone, NC – December 2, 2025 — Watauga Humane Society invites the community to kick off the holiday season with cocoa, Claus, and compassion.

On Saturday, December 6th from 1:00 to 3:30 PM, the WHS Adoption Center at 312 Paws Way will welcome Mister and Misses Claus for a cozy, family-friendly photo event. Guests can enjoy a fully stocked hot chocolate bar—complete with whipped cream, peppermint sticks, and maybe even a sprinkle of cinnamon—while creating festive memories and supporting a worthy cause.

Admission is simple: bring a new, unopened bag or case of wet pet food, treats, or a monetary donation to the WHS Enrichment Fund. That’s your ticket to a photo with Santa.

Bonus holiday magic: any guest who adopts a pet during the event will receive VIP access for a “Gotcha Day” photo with Santa—no waiting required.

This event helps fund enrichment activities for animals in care and spreads holiday joy to both pets and people in the High Country.
