Cat Adoption Fees Lowered Sept 11-22, 2012!

Spencer Seeks a Loving Home!

Published: Thursday, September 13, 2012 8:50 PM CDT
To make room at the Rowlett Animal Shelter, Friends of Rowlett Animals (FRAs) is sponsoring cat adoptions, reducing fees to $25 ($5 for seniors) on VIP pets, including cats in the shelter!


Adoption fees include spay/neuter, current vaccinations, de-worming and disease testing. Plus, the Rowlett Animal Shelter provides pre-adoption assessment and veterinary care.

Out of the 8-10 million cats and dogs that entered shelters last year, 4-5 million were euthanized. In Rowlett alone, more than 2,000 pets were picked up by Rowlett Animal Control last year. Only 500 were returned to owners; 771 were adopted or sent to other shelters and rescue groups. The remaining pets, numbering about 700, were destroyed. By adopting a pet, you are saving a life.

FRAs believes all homeless pets deserve a second chance. Visit the Rowlett Animal Shelter at 4402 Industrial St., Rowlett, 75088; call 972-412-6219; or email ltomaszewski@rowlett.com.

The following pets, some of which can be seen here, have reduced adoption fees:
