The Interbay Urban Center is putting on another event for a good cause this weekend (at the blood drive they held last month volunteers were able to collect 21 pints of blood from donors, according to Interbay Urban Center representative David Mistysyn).
The St. Valentine’s Pet Adopt-a-thon will take place from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. this Saturday (2/12) at the Interbay Urban Center, 1827 15th Ave W (the retail space with the Peet’s Coffee & Tea and Whole Foods).
The Seattle Humane Society is bringing the Maxmobile to Interbay Urban Center for on-the-spot pet adoptions. Our neighbors at the Seattle Animal Shelter will be have an adoptions tent as well, and we will be opening up two storefronts to serve as the cat room and dog room for the event. Adopting a dog or cat is the perfect way to bring some love into your home this Valentine’s Day!
Adoption prices will range from $67 to $157 for cats, and from $82 to $237 for dogs. This price includes initial vaccination, de-worming, feline Leukemia testing (for cats), a certificate for a free health exam at a local veterinary office, spay or neuter, microchip, and a Seattle Pet License (if applicable).
If you can’t make it to the event, but still want to adopt a pet before Valentine’s Day, the Seattle Animal Shelter, located at 2061 15th Ave. W. (just north of the Interbay Urban Center) is open for adoptions and licensing Wednesday through Sunday, noon to 6 p.m. Details here.
The Seattle Human Society, located at 13212 SE Eastgate Way in Bellevue, is offering all adoption fees for dogs and cats three years and older at a special half-off rate between February 11 and 14. For more information and hours, check the SHS website.
I go just to look at the cats.
