New Cedar Rapids Animal Care Center Opens After Flood
The Cedar Rapids Animal Care and Control Center opens at noon on a new Kirkwood campus site behind Washington Hall, five years after the 2008 flood destroyed the old shelter. The 14,000 square foot facility costs about 4.55 million dollars with FEMA funding and local taxes. It houses up to 43 dogs and 124 cats, includes isolation and quarantine areas, a public adoption area, and a 900 square foot classroom for Kirkwood veterinary students.
