The Humane Society of Vero Beach and Indian River County will be waiving the adoption fees on all cats and kittens from July 23-August 7.
“Summer is the time of year when we are inundated with litters of kittens,” said Maria Ramirez, the shelter’s Director of Operations. “We’re hoping that waiving the adoption fees will help our feline friends find forever homes,” she added. According to Ramirez, all adopted cats are spayed and neutered, microchipped, dewormed and given age-appropriate vaccines prior to adoption. Thanks to donations from volunteers, adopters can also enter a drawing to win a $100 gift card.
For individuals who love animals but cannot adopt, the shelter also offers a comprehensive volunteer program with many exciting opportunities to help animals and people.
The Humane Society is a nonprofit organization located at 6230 77th St., Vero Beach and is open seven days a week. Adoption hours are Wednesday through Sunday 11-4 and Tuesdays from 11-6. The Adoption Building is closed on Mondays during the summer. Animals for adoption can also be seen on the shelter’s website
