The Humane Society of North Texas and the City of Fort Worth are coming together to host the MEGA Adoption Event this coming weekend at the Will Rogers Memorial Center.
The event will take place on Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Over 750 pets will be available for adoption under one roof with the hopes of finding forever homes in time for the holidays, the Humane Society of North Texas said.
Admission to the Humane Society of North Texas, the event is free, but parking fees may vary.
The adoption fee for all pets is $10. All adoptable dogs and cats have been spayed or neutered, microchipped, and have received rabies and age-appropriate vaccinations.
The Humane Society of North Texas said every dog or cat adopter will receive a free initial vet visit with a participating local vet and a 30-day trial of pet insurance.
Visitors are required to wear masks and practice social distancing at the event. Temperatures will be taken as well, the Humane Society of North Texas said.
