Adopt A Pet In Mission Viejo For $20 Thanks To Holiday Promo

MISSION VIEJO, CA — Holiday season is underway, Mission Viejo. That means cookie-baking, house-decorating and — of course — lots of shopping. For the animals living at the Mission Viejo Animal Services Center, it's a time like any other — but for $20, you can change that.

This season Mission Viejo residents have the opportunity to give a pet in need something to be thankful for — a home. Through Thanksgiving, all cats and kittens, rabbits, guinea pigs and dogs will go home with approved applicants for only $20, the City of Mission Viejo announced Tuesday.

That's right. For the price of a microchip, you can give a pet a loving home.

The "Thankful Fur a Home" promotion is sponsored by the nonprofit Dedicated Animal Welfare Group, alternatively known as DAWG. The Mission Viejo Animal Services Center has a host of cute animals waiting for their forever homes. Residents who are interested can visit the center's website, or visit the shelter facility at 28095 Hillcrest. The adoption special runs through Nov. 25.
