Adopt A Kitten Saturday In Fairfax

FAIRFAX, VA—Looking to add a kitten to your home? Then you might want to be at Pet Supplies Plus, 11054 Lee Highway, 11 a.m-2 p.m. Saturday. That's where City of Fairfax Division of Animal Control is holding a "Kitten Adoption Event."

But if you can't make it Saturday, the city offers other opportunities. Namely, its animal shelter at Town and Country Animal Hospital, 9836 Fairfax Boulevard, has adoptable pits available for viewing 7 a.m.-5 p.m. on weekdays and 7 a.m.-5 p.m. on Saturdays. Adoption fees are $150 for cats and dogs, and $20 for other small animals. Here's more information, per the city:

"All animals are examined by a veterinarian prior to their adoption. Dogs and cats are spayed or neutered, vaccinated as is appropriate for their age, and dewormed. Dogs are tested for heartworms and cats are combo tested for Feline Leukemia and FIV.

"If a kitten or puppy is still too small to spay or neuter adopters have the option of only paying a $75 adoption fee and later taking the animal to a veterinarian of their choice for spaying or neutering at their cost or they may pay the $150 adoption fee and have the animal spayed or neutered at Town and Country Animal Hospital at no additional charge once the animal is old enough.

"The adoption fee on most small pets such as rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets, etc. is $20. Ordering Animal Friendly License Plates Benefits the City's Spay/Neuter Fund!!! To order, please visit State Website."
