 The Pike County Animal Shelter will be hosting a pet adoption fair Friday, September 1st at the South Williamson Mall from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. The fair will feature dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens already for their forever family. We want to promote the shelter in the area. There's a lot of people move in and out of the area so new people will know where we're at and what we do. Also promote some of the older dogs because the older dogs kind of sometimes get overlooked. A lot of people want puppies and little kittens so basically we're just you know trying to get our name out there and get people into work. When my baby was born it was magical and as she grew having a hospital close to home with advanced healthcare and specialized physicians being there along the journey was important and along that journey many special doctors touched our lives and then one day my baby became a woman and a mother herself. Pikeville Medical Center caring for every moment in life. The fair will also feature discounted adoption fees at just $12.50 for dogs and $10 for cats. Shelter animals can be great just like anything that is rescued it doesn't matter if it's a cat, a dog, horse, hamster, anything that is rescued appreciates the love and care and they just tend to fall in love with the person who takes care of them and feeds them and they really need that because the shelter is wonderful but it's not one-on-one attention all day every day.
