The Fairfax County Animal Shelter gives animals a chance to be part of a new cherished family, or return to  them. From Friday, Aug. 23, through Sunday, Aug. 25, FCAS hosted its "Clear the Shelters" fee-waived pet adoption event at its two locations, the Lorton Campus and the Michael R. Frey Campus. The initiative, presented by NBC and Telemundo Stations, promotes pet adoption and raises awareness for animal shelters nationwide.

FCAS had more than 160 animals — cats, dogs, guinea pigs, mice, and rabbits — waiting to meet their new families and placed over the long weekend. Shelter director Reasa Currier said they were “thrilled to join in this annual celebration of finding loving homes for adoptable pets.”

However, pets continue to arrive at the shelter. Some are released by their owners for adoption, but the shelter also shelters found pets.  The Fairfax County Animal Shelter shares photos of their recently found pets online. Perhaps one of these furry or feathered pets has been searching for you. To confirm your pet's location, either on the Lorton or Fairfax campuses, contact staff at animalshelter@fairfaxcounty.gov or call 703-324-0299.

County residents can also contact the shelter to learn more about assistance keeping pets, finding them a new home, and what foster volunteers can do, such as providing extra care to shelter pets outside of the shelter on daytime adventures through their Power Hour Program or fostering.
