Lee County Humane Society to Host Microchip Clinic During Nationwide Clear the Shelters Pet Adoption Campaign
Since 2015, more than 250,000 animals have found homes through Clear the Shelters™
Auburn, Alabama (August 17 & 18, 2019 - 12-5 pm)-- Save the date! Lee County Humane Society (LCHS)
needs your help clearing the shelter! From coast to coast, over one thousand animal shelters have partnered
with NBC and Telemundo owned television stations to host this nationwide event. In 2018, more than 88,000
pets were adopted in the United States and Puerto Rico during Clear the Shelter™ in one day!
LCHS will be offering reduced adoption fees during this two-day event. LCHS’ other pet discount promotions
including Pets for the Elderly and Pets for Patriots will also apply. The possibilities are endless and make it the
perfect weekend to adopt! Clear the Shelters™ is sponsored nationally by Cat’s Pride and Hill’s Pet Nutrition
and live footage from the event will be broadcast on NBCUniversal channels, Telemundo channels, as well as
the Clear the Shelters website August 17th, 2019.
Auburn, Alabama (August 17, 2019 - 12-3 pm)-- Thanks to a grant from State Farm, Lee County Humane
Society is also able to host It’s Hip to Microchip, a microchip clinic with Carefree Cats Mobile Vet Clinic. A pet
microchip and its’ registration greatly increase the chance of your pet being returned to you if they are ever lost
or stolen. The microchip clinic provides the opportunity to get your pet microchipped for only $15. The average
cost of a pet microchip is $45, so take advantage of this steal of a deal! This clinic is available to anyone who
has a pet that needs a microchip, not just adopters. The clinic is a cash-only offer and is applicable to both cats
and dogs. LCHS is open for adoptions 12-5 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday. All available pets can be viewed online at
www.leecountyhumane.org/adopt. There are currently over 200 pets available for adoption! Those interested in
