This spring, give a sweet senior dog or cat (ages 6+) the loving home they deserve! Adoption fees are waived, including spay/neuter and microchipping. Older pets are full of love, wisdom, and cuddles—with plenty of love left to give! Many seniors have the benefit of some training and calmer dispositions, making them a perfect pick for your new pet.

Visit the Department of Animal Care and Control today and meet some of their golden oldies. For locations please visit, animalcare.lacounty.gov/.

This extension, now in effect until July 7, 2025, gives affected homeowners the breathing room they need to focus on recovery without the fear of foreclosure.
