Why Adopt from Local Shelters?
Adopting a shelter animal is a truly rewarding experience—not just for the animal, but for you too! Shelters are full of pets of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities, making it possible to find a companion who truly fits your lifestyle.
Also, shelters routinely vaccinate, spay/neuter, and microchip animals —potentially saving you time and money on initial medical expenses.
But the biggest benefit? You're gaining a loyal companion who will shower you with unconditional love and bring joy to your life for years to come.

California Adopt-a-Pet Day is hosted by CalAnimals, SF SPCA, and the ASPCA.
