Animal Resources Hosts Annual Summer Lovin’ Adopt-A-Thon

The event surpassed its goal of 100 adoptions! Thank you to everyone who came out and brought home a pet. If you couldn’t make it on Saturday, no worries. The shelter is waiving adoption fees for the rest of the month in hopes of finding more homes for our furry friends.

This year, Animal Resources teamed up with the University of Florida student chapter of the Association of Shelter Veterinarians to help clear the shelter and open space for more animals who need a safe place.

“We’d love to see families, students and neighbors come out to meet these amazing pets,” said Animal Resources Director Julie Johnson. “Our hope is to see over 100 wagging tails and purring kittens heading home with their new people.”

Adoptions are first-come, first-served. Adopters must be at least 18 years old and show photo ID with proof of address. Households with other pets should bring proof of current rabies vaccinations and licenses.
