May 2-4, 2008 - Super Adoption Weekend at SLC PetsMart and Layton PetsMart!
What is a Pet Super Adoption?
No More Homeless Pets in Utah holds two Pet Super Adoption events each year-one in early May and one in September. These are three day adoption events (Fri-Sun) [Four Paws Rescue will attend on Saturday, May 3rd at both SLC and Layton] and typically over 25 rescue groups and shelters from all over Utah participate. There are usually over 800 dogs and cats available for adoption at each event. Between 8,000-10,000 people visit each adoption event and over 350 animals are adopted out during each adoption weekend. Often participating shelters are able clear out their shelters during these very important weekends. Each Super Adoption typically has a theme. This year’s spring event is:
Paw it Forward, adopt from a shelter or rescue and save a life.
Our Mission
Four Paws Rescue is a non-profit, volunteer-run organization
that is dedicated to helping homeless dogs and cats. Four Paws has
been rescuing dogs and cats since 2000. We rescue stray and abandoned
cats, dogs, puppies and kittens from high-kill shelters, place them
in caring foster homes (if available) and then adopt them into loving,
life-long homes. We have placed over 3,500 companion animnals in to loving homes,
while enriching the lives of their adoptive families.
Our Dogma
The reason dogs and cats have to be rescued in the first place is
that there are too many of them and not enough homes! We believe
that the best way to attack the overpopulation problem is to attack
the root of the problem - prevent more dogs and cats from being born.
Every pet that Four Paws rescues is spayed or neutered before being
placed in his/her adoptive home. We strive to educate the public on
the importance of spaying and neutering.
