'Now's the time:' Adoption fees waived at Harris County Pets through July 11

Adoption fees are waived for furry friends at Harris County Pets through Sunday, July 11.

"If you've been considering adopting a furry friend, now's the time. We're waiving adoption fees and offering three-month complimentary flea medication," Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo wrote in a Twitter post. 

And there are other deals too. 

During the "Hot Dog and Cool Cat Days of Summer Adoption Event," dog and cat adopters will receive 15% off any heartworm or flea preventative medication, as said on the Harris County Pets Facebook page. 

"Fleas and heartworms are always an issue during hot summer months! We have more than 600 cats and dogs so you are sure to find the perfect new family member and keep them protected from fleas and heartworms," said Harris County Pets on Facebook.

They also offer volunteering options, rehoming, pet licensing and lost and found help.
