Los Angeles County November Adoption Special: $10 Fees for Animals Age One and Older at All Seven Care Centers
The Los Angeles County Department of Animal Care and Control (DACC) is running its Best Friendsgiving adoption event at all seven county animal care centers throughout November: adoption fees for animals one year and older are $10 for the month, with the event running from November 1 to December 1 and centers open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
The department said the holiday season is when many families consider adding a new member, and lowering the fee is meant to help adult animals that have waited longer in the shelters find homes sooner. Animals that do not fall under the special are adopted under the department's regular fee schedule, which varies by length of stay.
Residents can browse adoptable animals on the department's website and then visit a nearby care center to meet them. Animals adopted from DACC are spayed or neutered and are eligible for a free veterinary exam within seven days of adoption at participating members of the Southern California Veterinary Medical Association.
