Adoption fees have dropped to just $15 for cats or ready to adopt kittens and the shelter is allowing “foster to adopt” for approved temporary pet parents who have found the “purrfect” companion. The shelter has seen higher than usual numbers of kittens coming in over the last several weeks and both adopters and fosters are urgently needed. Close to 200 cats and kittens are already in foster care and dozens of others are waiting for adoption at the shelter.
Adopted pets receive vaccinations, sterilization, de-worming, and a registered microchip while the ACS foster program provides complimentary food, supplies and medical care. Appointments are no longer needed to visit ACS. Foster applications and a search tool to see all the shelter’s available pets can be seen at www.saacs.net.
