Humane Pennsylvania will celebrate National Change a Pet's Life Day, Jan. 24, with a fee-waived adoption event. Change a Pet's Life Day was created to encourage people to adopt pets from shelters and raise awareness about animals in need. From Saturday, Jan. 21, to Tuesday, Jan. 24, the adoption fee will be waived for all dogs, cats, and critters at The Lancaster Center for Animal Life-Saving, 2195 Lincoln Highway East, Lancaster, and The Freedom Center for Animal Life-Saving, 1801 N. 11th St., Reading. Both locations are open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., with adoption hours from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Potential adopters are encouraged to visit the shelter campuses or http://www.HumanePA.org. All potential adopters are required to go through Humane Pennsylvania's adoption screening process, and approval is not guaranteed.

Adoptions include Humane Pennsylvania's 30-day Adoption Health Supplement; spaying or neutering prior to adoption; vaccinations, including current rabies vaccination, and de-worming medication; flea treatment; microchipping and chip registration; and a 1-pound bag of Science Diet pet food.
