Animal Shelter Reduces Barriers to Pet Adoption through September 17, 2023
Woods Humane Society hopes to help more pets find loving homes this month by offering a “Fall in Love” half-off adoption promotion through Sunday, September 17, 2023. All dogs, cats, puppies and kittens are available for adoption at half the usual adoption fee, which regularly ranges from $65 for senior cats to $200 for puppies.
Woods Humane Society CEO Emily L’Heureux says, “As families return to busy school and work schedules in September, our shelters often see a decrease in adoptions; however, the number of homeless pets in need does not slow down. Kitten season is still in full swing in SLO County and our shelter partners throughout the state continue to struggle with heartbreaking overcrowding in their dog kennels. We hope this promotion will encourage families to consider inviting a pet into their homes and help us continue to take in more animals in desperate need of lifesaving care.”
The Fall in Love adoption promotion, which began at noon on September 9 and ends at 4 p.m. on September 17, reduces adoption fees to $32.50 for senior cats, $40 for adult cats, $75 for kittens, $50 for senior dogs, $75 for adult dogs, and $100 for puppies. All adoptable pets have been spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and treated for parasites. Adoptions come with a free health check at a local veterinary clinic and the option to enroll in a month of complimentary pet insurance.
