Local Residents Encouraged To Adopt A Pet And Donate To Local Animal Shelters | New

A pet adoption campaign called “Clear The Shelters” was successful in September, but the number of pets in need continues to rise and we are waiting to find a home to love.

Devore Animal Shelter worked with NBC 4 and Telemundo 52 to lead the campaign. The campaign encourages individuals to keep pets and donates funds to support animal welfare groups with the greatest needs.

Each summer shelters and rescue teams face additional stress on their resources due to the increased intake of puppies and kittens due to spring litter. In 2021, shelters reported above-normal reception rates, with unprecedented overcrowding in some areas.

The Devore Animal Shelter hired 30 pets in the first week of the campaign, another 30 in the second week and 24 in the third week.
