BISSELL Pet Foundation “Empty the Shelters” Pet Adoption Event is Extended
Fees waived through August 16
CORPUS CHRISTI, TX – The City of Corpus Christi Animal Care Services, in partnership with the BISSELL Pet Foundation “Empty the Shelters” event, announces the extension of the event now through August 16.
The BISSELL Pet Foundation sponsors adoption fees for cats and dogs, making it more affordable for residents to welcome a new pet into their families. All adoptable pets are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.
Summer is one of the most challenging times of year for animal shelters. In the spring, kitten and puppy season results in an influx of litters, while adoptions struggle to keep pace.
At the same time, shelters often see increased owner surrenders and fewer volunteers, creating capacity and resource challenges.
“Empty the Shelters” helps provide relief by encouraging adoption and creating much-needed space for pets awaiting homes.
To adopt a pet, visit in person:
· Corpus Christi Animal Care Services, 2626 Holly Road
Monday through Saturday, 12:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.
Or visit online: CCACS Adoptions
