Pet-O-Rama: PicklesWeek of September 21st, 2026Meet Pickles, the Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter Pet of the Week! Pickles arrived at the shelter at the end of July through no fault of his own. Sadly, a member of his family passed away, and he proved a bit too strong for the remaining family member to handle. Since his arrival, he has stolen the hearts of everyone he meets. The shelter volunteers affectionately know him as a "big sweetheart" who just wants to love and be loved. For more info, and to find out about upcoming Shelter events, read the full post, listen to Pet-O-Rama at 11am Thursdays here on the pig or visit the shelter, located at 1001 Rodriguez St. in Santa Cruz and open from 11am to 6pm every day.
