BISSELL Pet Foundation Releases its Next Empty the Shelters Adoption Date
125+ shelters in 26 states will offer $25 pet adoptions on Saturday, October 12
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. September 24, 2019 — After successfully placing over 23,000 pets in homes, BISSELL Pet Foundation is back to Empty the Shelters at a participating location near you. On Saturday, October 12, adopters will have a chance to bring a pet home for the reduced fee of $25 while BPF sponsors the remaining cost.
“Our shelter partners continue to give feedback that Empty the Shelters is saving lives in their area,” said Cathy Bissell, Founder of BISSELL Pet Foundation. “Not only do thousands of pets find homes, but shelter and rescue organizations of all sizes collaborate to make the greatest impact possible for pets. These relationships continue long after the event ends.”
BPF’s Empty the Shelters program began in 2016 to capitalize on the foundations mission to find every pet a loving home. ETS aims to shed light on pet homelessness across the country and encourage families to adopt a pet and save a life.
