“We are excited to partner with BISSELL and are thankful for their generosity, which allows us to create positive outcomes for the animals in our facility,” said Animal Services and Mosquito Control director TravisClark. “We hope many of our citizens take advantage of this special day and consider adding a furry friend to their families,” said Clark.
“Shelters are struggling with a variety of challenges right now, as many overcrowded and having to euthanize highly adoptable pets to make space, a tragic situation,” said Cathy Bissell, Founder of BISSELL Pet Foundation. “BISSELL Pet Foundation’s upcoming 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,” said Bissell.
