NKLA Super Adoption June 4 – 5 #NKLASuperAdoption

On the grounds of a museum which celebrates the American West’s past, dogs and cats in need will get the chance to celebrate the start of a bright future with forever families during the NKLA Super Adoption.

The adoption event is presented by BOBS from Skechers, which recently helped fashion forward fans of Fidos take steps toward creating a better tomorrow for homeless pets thanks to a limited edition canine- and cat-themed shoe collection benefiting Best Friends Animal Society. On June 4 – 5, L.A. area potential pet parents are invited to The Autry at Griffith Park to meet more than 1,000 adorable adoptables from NKLA Coalition partners. While the adoption process and cost to welcome a dog or cat into your heart and home will vary, adoption fees will start as low as $10.

All of the rescue and shelter dogs and cats attending the Best Friends Animal Society event have been spayed/neutered, microchipped and are up to date with their vaccinations. While supplies last, Fidos and felines who find their forever family at the event will go home with an adoption kit which includes leashes, collars, coupons and much more.

Celebrity Spotting

Each year during NKLA Super Adoption an array of animal-loving luminaries use their star wattage to shine a spotlight on dogs and cats who are hoping to be cast in the real life role of a pet parent’s furry family member.
