This November, Calgarians can adopt a new furry friend for less at the City of Calgary’s Animal Services Centre. Adoption fees for cats and dogs are reduced throughout the month to help more animals find loving homes before winter.
“Every adoption gives an animal a second chance and opens space in our shelter for others who need help,” says Kathleen Dickson, Coordinator of Animal Care and Clinic Services. “We hope this price reduction encourages more Calgarians to come meet the incredible pets waiting for homes.”
All animals adopted from Animal Services are spayed or neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, health-checked, and come with a one-year City of Calgary pet license. These measures ensure pets are healthy, identifiable, and ready for their new lives.
“If it’s too cold for you, it’s too cold for them,” adds Dickson. “Bring pets indoors, ensure they have warm bedding, and limit outdoor time when temperatures drop.”
Adoptions are held at the Animal Services Centre, located at 2201 Portland Street S.E., open seven days a week.
