Lots of amazing dogs and cats will be available for adoption at discounted rates during Joplin Humane Society’s “Black & Orange Furry Sale”!
Shelter workers say that 110 cats and kittens and 105 dogs and puppies are currently waiting for homes, and more great pets become available every day.
The shelter will offer “door buster prizes” with the first ten adoptions getting a free customized ID tag for their newly adopted pet. “All pets with any amount of black or orange fur will be offered at only $20; there is no shortage of beautiful dogs and cats hoping to be home before the holiday season begins,” said Connie Andrews, Executive Director.
“We have taken in more than 345 animals so far in September, our shelter is full and we want to see these homeless dogs and cats get chosen for homes!”
“All dogs and cats will be altered, current on all vaccines including rabies, treated for parasites and microchipped,” said Tianna Fisher, Shelter Services Manager. “This is a chance to get a great deal and a great pet!”
The Black & Orange Furry Sale kicks off Monday, October 1st , when the shelter opens at 1 p.m. and runs through closing on Sunday, October 7th.
Shelter workers remind everyone that adopting a pet is a commitment and encourage potential adopters to give adoption serious consideration.
“Getting a pet is like making a promise of forever,” said Connie Andrews. “We don’t want anyone to jump into the decision and regret it; many of our pets are at our shelter now because someone didn’t think out that decision once before.”
The Joplin Humane Society is open Monday-Friday 1pm-5pm, Friday 1pm-6pm, Saturday 10am-5pm and Sunday 1pm-4pm. All adoptions require approved applications, which includes verbal or written landlord approval.
