(August 20, 2009) - Find the pet of your dreams this weekend as five Portland-area animal shelters unite to find homes for over 300 dogs and cats. It’ll be tail-wags and purrs across the city since all shelters are reducing their adoption fees this weekend only: 50% off cat/kitten adoption fees and $50 off dog adoption fees.
