Benefits of Adopting A Pet In Texas

• Second Chance - Texas shelters, including All Kind Animal Initiative, are overcrowded. By adopting, you are not only giving a pet a loving new home but also freeing up space at the shelter.
• More Affordable Than Buying - adoption fees are usually much lower.
• Variety of Pets - You will find just about every type of breed, size, and personality.
• Reduces Overpopulation - Texas has a very high stray population and adopting helps control that as well as supporting responsible pet ownership.

If you or someone you know is looking for a lovable companion, be sure to stop by All Kind Animal Initiative at 610 South 11th Street in Abilene, or get updates on pet adoption on their Facebook page.
