Jacksonville — The Jacksonville Humane Society (JHS) and Animal Care and Protective Services (ACPS) are teaming up with NBCUniversal Local for the Clear the Shelters national free adoption event on August 27, 2022, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
The “Clear The Shelters” campaign is a national event for shelters across the country. Since 2014, nearly 700,000 pets have found new homes. The Jacksonville Humane Society is hoping that the national attention will result in more adoptions to provide relief at their location as well as the city’s shelter.
“This time of year, it is more important than ever to move full-steam ahead with adoption promotions and events for dogs and cats inside the shelters,” said CEO Denise Deisler. “We are thankful for the national focus on pet adoptions and to the local Jacksonville community for embracing our mission to save lives.”
The Jacksonville Humane Society will have available pets at the PetSmart located at 8801 Southside, Jacksonville, FL 32256. Animal Care and Protective Services will have available pets at the PetSmart located on 356 Monument Rd, Jacksonville, FL 32225. All pets will be altered, microchipped, and vaccinated prior to adoption. Additional fees for a city rabies licensing fee, a leash and collar, or a cat carrier may apply.
