BISSELL Pet Foundation (BPF) is aiming to bring holiday hope to homeless pets with its national Empty the Shelters – Holiday Hope event. On Dec. 13-14, 2019, BPF will support over 110 shelters by offering reduced-fee pet adoptions – including the Kentucky Humane Society (KHS) and Metro Animal Services (MAS).

During these days, KHS is reducing adoption fees on dogs to $25 and will be charging no adoption fees on cats. MAS is waiving all adoption fees both days for all cats and dogs, thanks to BPF and the non-profit, Friends of Metro Animal Services.

On Monday, December 9, Moxy Louisville Downtown is offering a $2,500 matching gift challenge. You can help us reach this by donating today! Every gift on Match Monday will help us reach this goal.

For the 32nd year in a row, Santa Claus and over 800 volunteers will take time out of their busy schedules to help local homeless animals.

The annual Picture Your Pets with Santa at all 24 Feeders Supply stores will be held the first two weekends in December on Saturdays and Sundays 11 a.m.-3 p.m.

The event is expected to attract over 5,000 families and raise over $100,000 for 13 local animal charities: the Kentucky Humane Society, Floyd County Animal Rescue League, Lexington Humane Society, Franklin County Humane Society, Humane Society of Oldham County, J.B. Ogle Animal Shelter, Saving Sunny, Shamrock Pet Foundation, Barktown Animal Rescue, Boone County Animal Control, Friends of Hardin County Animal Shelter, Heart Humane Society, and Harrison County Animal Control.
