HSWC moves 2022 Kia Pet Adoption event date

Published

on

The Humane Society of Warren County announced that they were awarded a 2022 Kia Pet adoption grant in the amount of $1,500 to host a fee-reduced adoption event. The event will be held at the shelter on Friday, May 27, 2022, with all cat and kitten adoption fees at just $25 and all dogs 6+ months of age at $50. The goal is to adopt 20 animals throughout the event and help us clear space within the shelter to save more lives! The grant funds, sponsored by the Petfinder Foundation, help to cover the difference in our adoption fees which are normally $140 for dogs and $85 for cats.

HSWC currently has 50 underage kittens in foster care who aren’t quite ready for adoption, hence the reason for the date change which was originally scheduled for Friday, May 6, 2022. Not all of the kittens will be available on the 5/27/22, but a number of them will be.

Foster families are vital to our operations, especially this time of year – “kitten season”! In 2021, HSWC took in more than 500 felines with nearly 200 of those being 5 months or younger. 88 of the kittens were un-weaned kittens that were in foster care until they were old enough and healthy enough for adoption!

For more information on how you can become a foster family for the HSWC, please visit our website at humanesocietywarrencounty.com or call the shelter at 540-635-4734.

The Humane Society of Warren County is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing compassionate care to abandoned, abused, homeless and neglected animals in our community.
