We’re about to enter what are normally called the dog days of summer, those hot August afternoons that seem like they will never end.  But this year we’re celebrating the cat days of summer, because at $9 a pop the kitties are flying off the shelves of Los Angeles shelters and into the loving arms of adoptors!

Found Animals began its 90 day promotion on June 1^st, with 19 participating shelters and adoption centers throughout Los Angeles County.  For only $9, a member of the public can adopt a spayed or neutered and vaccinated cat that is 9 months or older.  Why adult cats?  Because kittens tend to overshadow them, especially at this time of year, but adult cats are much less rambunctious and naughty.

The promotion is off to a smashing success, with two shelters reporting increases in adult cat adoption of more than 100%!  Found Animals rewarded the City of Los Angeles South LA shelter—which had a 117% increase in adult cat adoptions—with a giant inflatable cat to attract more adoptors in the month of July.

This special is for the summer only, so if you live in Southern California and want to add a kitty to your family this summer, grab nine dollars and head to one our 19 promotion partners to take advantage of 9 Lives for $9 today!
