HOW TO ADOPT THESE PETS:

Check to see if there are waivers of fees in place due to the number of pets coming in to the shelter.

Both pets are available for adoption at the San Marcos Regional Shelter. All ready-to-go pets are normally $22 and include spay/neuter, vet exam, vaccinations, and a microchip.

To meet the pets, visit the San Marcos Regional Animal in person from noon-7 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, and from noon-5 p.m. on Saturdays, or online at www.sanmarcostx.gov/adopt to choose a pet and fill out an online adoption application.

Then, give the shelter a call at 512.805.2650 or email animaladoptions@sanmarcostx.gov.

Anyone interested in fostering a pet should email foster@sanmarcostx.gov or visit www.sanmarcostx. gov/foster to fill out a foster application.
