MASON, MI — The Bissell Pet Foundation is sponsoring another empty the shelters event at 41 Michigan shelters, including the Ingham County Animal Control Shelter in Mason. Reduced fee adoptions will be available through July 31.
The foundation is a national animal welfare organization dedicated to ending pet homelessness. It partners with animal shelters across the country for its Summer National Empty the Shelters reduced-fee adoption event. Adoptive families pay no more than $50 to bring home a fully vaccinated, microchipped and spayed or neutered pet.
“Shelters are struggling with a variety of challenges right now – some are evacuating pets because of wildfires, tornadoes, or even loss of air conditioning in extreme heat, and others are overcrowded and having to euthanize highly adoptable pets to make space, a tragic situation,” said Cathy Bissell, founder of the foundation. “Bissell Pet Foundation’s Summer National Empty the Shelters event is a crucial opportunity for people to make a real difference in their community through adoption. Every single adoption saves a life and creates space to save another. Please adopt and give a pet a chance it might otherwise not have. If you can’t adopt, fostering saves lives when shelters are full. Deserving pets across the country are counting on all of us.”
