Animal shelters across the country are in crisis with overcrowding and other major obstacles, prompting a national call for adoption.
BISSELL Pet Foundation is aiming to “Empty the Shelters” by sponsoring reduced adoption fees of $25 from May 2-8. More than 275 shelters in 45 states will participate in this lifesaving event to place deserving pets in loving homes.
Area shelters that are participating include:
- Humane Society of Tulsa
- Sand Springs Animal Welfare
- Washington County SPCA
- Pets & People Humane Society Inc
“Shelters across the country are over capacity, and highly adoptable pets are at risk as we face one of the largest crises in recent years,” said Cathy Bissell, Founder of BISSELL Pet Foundation. “BISSELL Pet Foundation is calling on people to visit their community shelters during ‘Empty the Shelters’ to save a life through adoption. Without you, there is no tomorrow for these deserving pets.”
