FAYETTEVILLE — The city Animal Shelter will be closed Saturday while the floors are refurbished.

"The current tile has been here ever since we first opened," Justine Lentz, animal services superintendent, said in a news release. "The plans are to remove all of the tile, sand the concrete floors and then stain and polish the concrete. This will make it much easier to clean and maintain a sanitary environment."

Normal shelter hours are 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday.

For more information, call the shelter at 479-444-3456 or go to accessfayetteville.org.
