LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – If you’re looking to bring home a new feline friend, it’s a good week to do it thanks to Lake County Animal Care and Control’s latest adoption event.
Through this Friday, April 26, county adoption fees will be waived, so that cat adoptions will cost $86 for females and $76 for males.
Those costs will cover spay or neutering, vaccinations and microchipping.
If you're looking for a new companion, visit the shelter. There are many great pets there, hoping you'll choose them.
