The San Marcos Regional Animal Shelter is hoping to send 120 pets to their fur-ever homes for the holiday season.

The shelter is offering an adoption special of $20 for all adoption-ready pets through Dec. 22.

The San Marcos Regional Animal Shelter is hoping to send 120 pets to their fur-ever homes for the holiday season.

“Our staff loves our animals and has set a goal of sending 120 pets to their forever homes before the Christmas holiday,” said Animal Shelter Supervisor Christie Banduch in a release. “We hope that anyone who has been thinking about adding a new four-legged family member to their household will let us assist in finding their perfect match from the many cats and dogs currently available.”

The shelter says all adoptions are on a first-come, first-serve basis. Staff is not currently placing any holds on adoptable animals over the phone or via email.
