ENCINITAS, Calif. — Christmas is all about families. Why not add to your family on Christmas?
For eight years, "Santa Paws" of the Rancho Coastal Humane Society has been delivering adoptable pets to families on Christmas morning. It's a holiday surprise the kids will never forget.
Santa Paws is preparing to deliver lots of pets on the nice list on Wednesday.
The Adamos family grew by two last Christmas thanks to Santa Paws and the RCHS. One year later and the family can't imagine life without their two cats, Big Benny and Super-sized Sparkle.
"You can't ask for anything better," said Nick Adamo. "We told the kids if they were extra good there might be an extra present coming."
