Get your house ready because next week your new family member arrives. Next Saturday in Miami, you can adopt a dog or cat with no adoption fees. The Clear the Shelters adoption drive, organized in part by Miami-Dade Animal Services, will have over 500 adorable dogs and cats that need a home. Clear the Shelters adoption drive will take place next weekend on Saturday, August 17 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. There will be two event locations, the first at Pet Adoption and Protection Center in Doral, FL and the second at PetSmart Palmetto Bay in Miami. All adoption fees will be waived on the day of the drive to encourage locals to adopt these animals. Adoptions will include spay or neuter surgery, microchip, deworming, vaccines, and a license tag for dogs, according to Miami-Dade Animal Services. The adoption drive is hosted by Miami-Dade Animal Services, NBC 6 South Florida/WTVJ, and Telemundo 51/WSCV.

Muñoz continued, "Last year, a total of 213 animals moved out of the shelter with their new families during the event, which is three times more than the daily average."

She’s four years old, smart, cuddly, and loves playing and eating treats. She’s seriously perfect — let’s find her the perfect forever family! 📸: @eddie_does_things / @emkayster Share for pledges/foster/adoption/rescue.
