El Paso pet owners can honor their lost pets this fall with the second annual community pet ofrenda, organized by Friends of El Paso Animal Services and El Paso Animal Services. Set to take place at the Mexican American Cultural Center from October 17 through November 15, the “Siempre con Nosotros – Always With Us” ofrenda will feature a Rainbow Bridge theme inspired by Día de los Muertos traditions, including handmade papel picado.
Community members can participate by making a $5 memorial contribution, which supports various programs for pets in need throughout El Paso. Photo submissions for pets are accepted until 11:59 p.m. on October 13. Details for participation can be found on the Friends of El Paso Animal Services Pet Ofrenda page.
This event provides a meaningful way to celebrate the bond between pets and their owners while supporting animal welfare in the community.
