Black FURday: Austin Animal Center waiving adoption fees
(Austin Animal Center)
AUSTIN, Texas - The Austin Animal Center will be waiving adoption fees this weekend.
The AAC will be waiving fees from November 29 through December first for their Black FURday adoption event. All animals living at the shelter will be eligible for waived fee adoptions.
The shelter will be open from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Black Friday and will operate on regular business hours for the remainder of the weekend.
“This time of year, people tend to have some extra time off work which can be great for helping your new pet adjust to the home and get some quality bonding time in those first few days”, said Jennifer Olohan, communications and media program manager for AAC.
AAC is currently overcapacity with more than 800 cats and dogs in need of homes. “Most of these animals will spend Thanksgiving alone in their kennel this week. By doing events like Black FURday, we’re trying our hardest to make sure they get to spend the next holiday with their new family”, said Olohan.
