City of Corpus Christi
CORPUS CHRISTI (News Release) – Corpus Christi Animal Care Services (CCACS) wants to remind residents and business owners or operators featuring animals in any performing act that they must have a City-issued permit to do so.
What does this mean? Any person or business must have a permit to allow a performing animal exhibition, pet shop, rodeo, stable, circus, kennel, grooming shop, or boarding facility at an event occurring within Corpus Christi city limits.
Persons or organizations seeking a permit should apply to CCACS at least 20 days before any event, such as a circus, rodeo, show, animal ride, etc. The permit will be valid for the duration of the event only. Separate permits must be granted for each event or activity.
