Ames Animal Shelter Extends Adoption Special; Includes Kittens in New Promotion
The Ames Animal Shelter is extending its $25 cat adoption special to include kittens until all are adopted. This promotion replaces the previous kitten 2-for-1 deal, continuing the Shelter's efforts from June’s “Adopt a Cat Month.”
“We are hopeful that extending the campaign will help us find homes for the overwhelming number of kittens we have,” said Ames Animal Control Supervisor Ron Edwards.
The adoption fee covers a comprehensive head-to-tail exam, spay/neuter, age-appropriate vaccinations, FeLV/FIV testing, treatment for intestinal parasites, flea preventative, microchip, a carrier, and a starter kit with food and toys.
For more details or to view adoptable cats, visit www.AmesAnimalShelter.org. The Shelter, located at 325 Billy Sunday Road, offers in-person viewing by appointment only. For more information, call 515.239.5530.
