The Burlington County Freeholders have announced that the “Cat and Dog Days of Summer” adopt-a-pet program is almost over at the Burlington County Animal Shelter.
The program, effective through Aug. 31, features reduced adoption fees.
The reduced adoption fee for dogs will be $40 as opposed to the regular charge of $75. Cat adoption fees have been reduced from $45 to $20.
The shelter provides spayed or neutered animals for adoption in hopes of controlling the county’s animal population.

Hours of operation are noon to 7 p.m. Mondays and Thursdays; noon to 4 p.m. Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays; and noon to 4 p.m. Saturdays. The shelter is closed Sundays and holidays.
