Animal Care

A strong cold front moved into the area overnight. The National Weather Service is forecasting temperatures tonight in the low 40s, with wind chills expected to drop below 40 degrees by early Tuesday morning.

The loud noises and displays of holiday fireworks can be very distressing for pets, leading to significant stress and anxiety. Animals possess acute senses, making them particularly sensitive to loud sounds. This fear may result in destructive behavior, attempts to escape, or even injury.

In observance of the holiday season, all City of Corpus Christi non-essential offices will be closed during the week between Christmas and New Year's Day. Most offices will be closed beginning Thursday, December 25, 2025, and reopen on Friday, January 2, 2026.
