Adopt A New Furry Friend In McLean For Christmas

It's hard to resist these cute animals, especially when the adoption fees are half off.

MCLEAN, VA—There's probably no better gift for animal lovers this Christmas than bringing home a new furry friend. Local animal shelters make it more feasible by lowering adoption fees around the holidays.

This year, the Fairfax County Animal Shelter is offering half off adoption fees from Dec. 19-22.

If you're still on the fence, maybe some of these adoptable pets will change your mind. You can see all available pets on the animal shelter's website so you have a head start on the adoption process at the shelter.

Lucas would make a good cuddle "bunny" too!
