BISSELL Pet Foundation is bringing hope to shelter pets across the country this holiday season with its “Empty the Shelters – Holiday Hope” adoption event December 6 – 20. During each nationwide event, BISSELL Pet Foundation sponsors reduced adoption fees of $25 or less per cat, dog, puppy and kitten. This event will be hosted in more than 200 shelters in 40 states, including Joint Animal Services.

  • JOINT ANIMAL SERVICES will participate Dec. 6 – 11, 2021 at our shelter location 3120 Martin Way E in Olympia, offering $25 adoption fees for all dogs and cats.
  • Adoptions will be on a first come first serve basis. Space is limited!
  • All interested adopters can find more details online at www.jointanimalservices.org
  • Visit us on Facebook or Twitter to learn more.

The “Empty the Shelters” event began in 2016 as an effort to encourage more families to adopt a pet into their home. Nearly 68,000 pets have found adoptive homes through this reduced-fee adoption event. Since its inception, BISSELL Pet Foundation has expanded its “Empty the Shelters” reach to organizations in 45 states and Canada, partnering with a total of 443 animal welfare organizations.

“Shelters are overcrowded and in desperate need of support due to slowed adoption rates and increased length of stay for pets,” said Cathy Bissell, Founder of BISSELL Pet Foundation. “With so many people seeking to add pets to their family around this time of year, our ‘Empty the Shelters – Holiday Hope’ event is the perfect opportunity to make a difference in your community by saving a life and creating space to give another homeless pet a chance.”

This is the first time Joint Animal Services will be participating in the BISSELL Pet Foundation’s ‘Empty the Shelters – Holiday Hope’ event! There are so many wonderful pets looking for their FURever home.

“Joint Animal Services is excited to be participating in such a fantastic event for the first time,” said Sarah Hock, Executive Director, “there are so many wonderful pets looking to find a home for the holidays.”

Please remember that adopting a pet is a lifetime commitment and not just for the holidays. For more information on adopting or donating to “Empty the Shelters,” visit the BISSELL Pet Foundation website as well as the Joint Animal Services website.
