The shelter is over capacity, with nearly 400 cats and kittens. As part of national Adopt-a-Shelter Cat Month, the county is offering some special incentives for new cat owners.
Animal Services is sending each newly adopted cat and kitten home with a free toy, and adopters will be entered into a weekly drawing for other prizes like pet first aid kits and goody bags. In addition, the agency’s adoption welcome kits include a video created by Animal Planet Pet Video about caring for new feline family members and coupons for free flea, tick and parasite control products.
“We want to give new adopters as much support as we can in these tough times to keep their pets healthy and happy,” said Katherine Lockett, Manager of Animal Services.
Cat and kitten adoption fees at Orange County are $40 and include:
• Spaying or neutering
• FVRCP and rabies vaccinations
• FLV/FIV testing
• Microchip identification
• Deworming
• 5 lb. Bag of Science Diet Dry Food
