Shelters Intensify Adoption Drives Amid Overcrowding

News summary

Animal shelters and welfare organizations across the US are intensifying adoption drives and initiatives to address overcrowding, fueled by economic challenges, seasonal kitten surges, and increased animal intakes. Events such as PetSmart Charities' National Adoption Week and NBCUniversal's Clear the Shelters campaign offer discounted or waived adoption fees in regions like San Diego and Massachusetts. Community events, including Sacramento's Caturday, foster engagement among pet owners, while innovative programs in Florida pair inmates with foster kittens to benefit both groups. Clear Creek Cat Rescue in Alaska and other groups continue rescue and rehoming efforts. Ongoing challenges are highlighted by cases like the abandonment of eight kittens in extreme heat at a Pennsylvania shelter. Shelters urge community support through adoptions, foster volunteering, and donations to sustain their work.
