Small animals can make wonderful companions, and this weekend, the Animal Rescue League of Boston (ARL) will host a fee-waived adoption event for small animals, including guinea pigs, rabbits, mice, and hamsters, at all three of its Animal Care and Adoption Centers. For those thinking of adding a small animal (or two) to the family, it’s a perfect time to do so!
The event will run from Friday, November 8, through Sunday, November 10 at ARL’s Boston, Dedham, and Brewster Animal Care and Adoption Centers. Hours of operation are 1-6 p.m.
Currently, ARL has nearly three dozen small animals available for adoption, with many more in foster care waiting their turn. The organization has seen a dramatic rise in small animal surrenders in the past few years, particularly guinea pigs.
Small animals make wonderful pets – they’re social, relatively quiet, great for small living spaces, and may be an option for those living in properties that may not allow dogs or cats but do allow small animals.
ARL’s Adoption Forward process, a conversation-based, application-free process designed so the needs of both the animal and adopter are understood and compatible with one another, will remain the same for this special adoption event.
Visit an ARL Animal Care & Adoption Center from November 8 through November 10 from 1:00pm-6:00pm:
Boston: 10 Chandler Street
Dedham: 55 Anna’s Place
Brewster (Cape Cod): 3981 Main Street
