Crazy-Successful Adoption Event Empties Out Entire Animal Shelter

Crazy-Successful Adoption Event Empties Out Entire Animal Shelter
There's nothing quite like the site of an empty animal shelter: Thanks to an adoption event, 100 animals needing homes, on the same day, found one.

There's nothing quite like the site of an empty animal shelter.

The silence from cages that last week held 100 homeless animals speaks volumes about the success of one event on November 7.

The Saturday "Adoptathon" at Summit County Animal Control resulted in every single adoptable dog and cat in the Ohio facility finding a home.

By the time the day was done, not a single animal on the adoption floor was left behind bars.

"This is my dream…that all dog pounds will be empty some day," Volunteer Macee wrote on Facebook. "Thank you SCAC, their volunteers and the dogs, for staying the course. We will miss each of you."

All these extra rooms mean more space for a new set of animals that need a second chance.
