Bowling Green, Ky. – The Bowling Green Warren County Humane Society is excited to announce an Empty the Shelter event aimed at promoting pet adoption. This initiative is sponsored by Bissell and is part of a larger national campaign designed to encourage people to adopt pets from shelters. From now until October 15, the Humane Society has reduced adoption fees to just $25.
The event comes at a crucial time for the shelter, which is currently at full capacity with animals in need of homes. Katie Holmes, the Marketing Coordinator for the Bowling Green Warren County Humane Society, expressed her gratitude toward the Bissell Pet Foundation and Kathy Bissell for their support. “We are so lucky to get approved and to take part in this so we can offer $25 adoptions,” Holmes said. “We really need it right now because we are full to the brim, so it’s a great time to come out and adopt.”
The Bissell Pet Foundation is actively working to assist shelters in managing adoption fees. The foundation understands the challenges that come with overcrowded shelters across the nation. According to Holmes, “Last year we saw in the fall and winter where we usually have a slow time, there really wasn’t one. So, we need these adoptions, and we need everyone to spay and neuter.”
The Humane Society is currently home to a wide variety of pets available for adoption. They are urging anyone who is thinking about bringing a furry friend home to visit the shelter during this event. Holmes highlighted the positive impact adopting a pet can have, stating, “Some people say, ‘Oh I don’t want to take a pet home, I’m at work or whatever.’ They’d much rather be seeing you and hanging out with you at night and wait for you during the day than be at a shelter.”
Adopting a pet can be a rewarding experience and a great way to contribute to the well-being of animals in need. The Humane Society encourages interested individuals and families to come to the shelter and meet the pets looking for loving homes. The organization is hopeful that the Empty the Shelter event will help them find homes for as many animals as possible before the closing date on October 15.
In addition to the current event, the Humane Society stresses the importance of spaying and neutering pets. This not only helps manage the pet population but also ensures that animals experience better health and live longer lives. They encourage the community to adopt responsibly and think about the long-term commitment involved in bringing a pet into their lives.
The Empty the Shelter event at the Bowling Green Warren County Humane Society is a fantastic opportunity to adopt a pet at a significantly reduced fee. With the support of the Bissell Pet Foundation, the shelter hopes to find homes for many animals in their care. Anyone interested in adopting a pet is invited to visit the shelter during the event, making a difference for both themselves and an animal in need.
