In-Person Adoption Events to Take Place at Local PetSmart Stores July 10 – 16
Animal shelters across the nation are full to overflowing, and scores of adoptable pets are waiting even longer to find loving homes. In support of National Adoption Week, taking place July 10 to 16, 2023, Humane Society of the Ouachitas (HSO) is proud to partner with PetSmart Charities to bring adoptable pets to the PetSmart Store, located at 1430 Higdon Ferry Rd., Hot Springs, Arkansas.
PetSmart Charities National Adoption Week coincides with kitten season. Following peak breeding activity for cats, many shelters are flooded with scores of vulnerable kittens and cats in need of loving homes. During the in-store event, HSO invites those with room in their hearts and homes to meet adoptable cats and kittens as well as dogs and puppies! Opportunities will be given to spend time with animals in spacious areas to find just the right match. Staff and volunteers will help potential adopters learn about caring for a pet and the types of tools, products and services that can support new pet parents.
“HSO cannot thank PetSmart Charities enough for its support.” stated HSO volunteer secretary Cheryl Murphy. “Not only can we adopt from our local shelter in Mena, but we now have a pet adoption center at the Hot Springs store! This broadens our opportunity to find more loving homes for our shelter animals waiting for adoption.”
PetSmart Charities, a 501(c)(3) organization, is committed to making the world a better place for pets and the people who love them, having received the Four-Star Rating from Charity Navigator for the past 18 years in a row, placing it among the top one percent of rated charities.
