“Empty the Shelters” Michigan returns on May 5. Not only do you get to give a pet a forever home, you can do so for free.
The BISSELL Pet Foundation will pay all adoption fees at 66 shelters and rescue organizations across Michigan.
“We are a small organization doing our best to give every pet a loving home,” said Cathy Bissell, founder of BISSELL Pet Foundation. “Getting animals out of shelters and into homes is critical.”
In addition, to thank families for choosing adoption, each new pet owner will get an AdoptBox filled with: a 5lb bag of pet food donated by Chicken Soup for the Soul Pet Food, treats, toys, valuable wellness information and coupons for new pet owners, where available while supplies last.
In the past year, BISSELL Pet Foundation helped to place 10,000 cats and dogs through free adoption events.
This year, the adoption event will take place in 13 states, including Michigan.
Nationwide, approximately 2.7 million pets are euthanized each year because they can’t find homes.
