As intake levels surge, Kenton County Animal Services is hosting an adoption special this week.
Starting Oct. 5 through Oct. 8, all adoption fees will be waived. Currently, Kenton County Animal Service is at “code red” occupancy after intake jumped 23% year-over-year. Animal services have accepted more than 950 dogs this year alone, according to a news release.
The adoption fee for pets is usually $125. Each animal receives a first round of vaccinations, a flea/tick preventative, a dewormer, a microchip (registered to the new adopter), and is spayed/neutered.
Shelter staff will still be conducting their standard screening and adopter evaluations prior to any adoption finalization to ensure animals are placed in the best possible homes. Adoptions are first come, first serve.
