BISSELL Pet Foundation, a national animal welfare organization dedicated to ending pet homelessness, is prompting a national call for adoption this spring with its Empty the Shelters reduced-fee adoption event from July 8-31, 2024. The Lafayette Animal Shelter & Care Center will participate along with more than 390 shelters in 44 states.

All animals at the Lafayette Animal Shelter & Care Center, located at 410 N Dugas Road, are eligible for adoption (dogs and cats) for a $0 fee. Animals are fully vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed or neutered. The Lafayette Animal Shelter and Care Center is open Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. and on Saturday from 12:00 p.m. until 2:00 p.m.
