The City of LaGrange Animal Shelter was able to adopt 47 of their animals in May because of the BISSELL Pet Foundation’s Empty the Shelters Event. The BISSELL Pet Foundation, a national nonprofit dedicated to ending pet homelessness, prompted a nationwide call for adoption through its Empty the Shelters event, May 1-15, 2025.
The City of LaGrange Animal Shelter participated alongside 380+ shelters across 43 states to help pets find loving homes through reduced adoption fees of $70 or less, generously sponsored by BISSELL Pet Foundation.
Since its inception in 2016, Empty the Shelters has helped more than 323,000 pets find loving homes and is now the largest funded adoption event in the country. The program partners with more than 815 animal welfare organizations across 49 states and Canada.
BISSELL Pet Foundation and City of LaGrange Animal Shelter urge families to research the pet they are interested in adopting and adoption requirements. For more information on adopting or donating to “Empty the Shelters,” visit www.bissellpetfoundation.org/empty the-shelters.
