"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.
