“Be a Hero” Promotion Offers Super Savings!
Thanks to a combination of return to office initiatives, rising food and vet costs, and pet restrictions at rental properties, adoption rates worldwide are the lowest they’ve been in years. As a result, animal euthanasia in shelters is the highest it has been since 2020. In order to combat this extreme animal welfare problem and get more orphan pets in their forever homes, Helen Woodward Animal Center is offering 50% off adoption fees for the duration of 2024. The Center will continue to perform its screening and interview process to ensure every orphan pet find their perfect home, but they hope this financial incentive will encourage potential adopters to open their homes and hearts to a new furry friend.
