Clear The Shelters Day, a nationwide pet adoption initiative will be held August 18, 2018, from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the Houston area.

You are invited to add a family member to your house in the largest pet adoption effort ever held in Texas. Clear The Shelters Day is Saturday, August 18, 2018, between 9:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. During this special adoption event, all spayed and neutered animals will be available to the public at no cost, although other fees may apply. The shelters look forward to matching beautiful animals to loving, forever homes throughout South Texas.

During the summer, many of the shelters swell with abandoned and surrendered pets after spring births or simply from people who give up their animals when they leave for vacation.

So if you’re thinking about taking home a new furry friend, consider heading to a local animal shelter to adopt during Clear the Shelters on Aug. 18 when hundreds of shelters will waive or discount fees as part of the one-day adoption drive. Below is a listing of shelters that are participating in “Clear The Shelter” day.
