It's a Stray Paws Adoption Weekend! 

LA Animal Services is offering reduced adoption fees for dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens on Saturday, November 16 and Sunday, November 17. Your new furry friend can't wait to meet you and be a part of your family. Adoption fees for dogs are $51 (not including $20 license); puppies: $75; cats: $12.50; and kittens: $25.

If you can't adopt, consider fostering a pet. When you adopt or foster a dog or cat, you not just save the life of that animal, but you will also free up a space for another dog or cat in need.
