Adopt a Senior Cat or Dog -- $0 adoption fees!

Celebrate National Adopt a Senior Pet Month in November by adopting a senior cat or dog!

Please take the opportunity to get acquainted with Furkids’ older pets available for adoption at www.furkids.org. If you see one you would like to meet and possibly adopt, please submit an online application. There is no fee or obligation to submit an application. After receipt of your application, an adoption counselor will contact you via email or telephone within 72 hours to answer all your questions about the cat or dog and arrange a meeting. All adoptions finalized and all qualified applications received on or before November 30, 2014, will be eligible for the $0 adoption fee for senior (age 8 and older) cats and dogs. Please consider adding a senior pet to your family.

Furkids is a 501c3 nonprofit charitable organization that operates the largest cage-free, no-kill shelter in the Southeast for rescued cats and a no-kill shelter for dogs. At these locations, animals experience the best care in a loving, safe environment until they are adopted into forever homes.
