Dog Adoption Fees Waived At Anne Arundel County Animal Shelter
Because the Anne Arundel County Animal Shelter has run out of room, older cats are also free to adopt until further notice.
ANNE ARUNDEL COUNTY, MD — The Anne Arundel County Animal Shelter has run out of room to house additional furry-legged friends, so it's hoping to free up space by waiving adoption fees.
Dogs are free until further notice, according to the shelter. For anyone interested in cats, adoption fees are $14. There is no cost; however, to adopt cats that are 9 years older.
Other critters, such as rabbits and guinea pigs have no adoption fee.
