Maricopa County Animal Care and Control is participating in a national “Empty the Shelters” event as they experience crowded kennels.

From May 5 to May 9, Bissell Pet Foundation is sponsoring adoption fees for pets at shelters and rescues in 36 states across the country.

Adoptions sponsored through the event include licensing fees, spay/neuter surgery, microchipping, and vaccinations.

MCACC says they have more than 300 dogs and cats at their locations, making for a “very full” shelter.

Puppies and kittens younger than five months, Shelter Super Heroes, and Fast Pass reservations are not included in the promotion, MCACC says.
