Find "Somebunny to Love" this Saturday

Hop on in to the Escondido Humane Society for our "Somebunny to Love" social event this Saturday. Our lovable adoptable rabbits, like Alegra (pictured here), will be meeting and greeting the public in the EHS conference room starting at 10 a.m. The San Diego House Rabbit Society also will be on hand with information about adoption and caring for your rabbit companion.

Our "Somebunny to Love" event is part of National Rabbit Week July 14-21. The campaign aims to promote responsible rabbit ownership and focuses on communicating the fact that, while they make the most fantastic companion animals for children and adults alike, bunnies require the same high levels of care, attention and commitment as dogs, cats and other animals.

ALL adoption fees reduced in July!

During the summer months, we see an influx of animals coming through our doors. To help find homes for our furry friends, like Petey (pictured above), we are reducing adoption fees by 50% in July. Animals included in the special are dogs, puppies, cats, kittens and bunnies.

Reduced adoption fees are $80 for puppies and kittens up to 6 months; $55 for adult dogs and cats (6 months to 7 years); $27.50 for senior dogs and cats (7 years and up); and $22.50 for all bunnies. All adoption fees include spay/neuter; microchip with lifetime registration; up-to-date vaccinations; dog licensing (Escondido, San Marcos and Poway); veterinary exam at EHS; wellness exam after adoption; sample bag of food; discounts at local pet supply, grooming and boarding partners; and behavior support for dogs and cats for the lifetime of the animal.

Meet our wonderful animals in person at the Escondido Humane Society, 3450 E. Valley Parkway, or visit them online at http://www.escondidohumanesociety.org/. The Escondido Humane Society Adoption Center is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. seven days a week.
