CURRITUCK ANIMAL SHELTER ADDS FREE MICROCHIPPING

AND

30 DAYS OF FREE PET INSURANCE WITH ADOPTIONS

It has just become easier for lost pets who are adopted from the Currituck Animal Shelter to be reunited with their owners. The Animal Lovers Assistance League has recently added a free microchipping service for all dogs and cats adopted from the shelter if they are old enough. Registration of the 24 PetWatch chip in the national data base is also provided free of charge and provided at the time of adoption. The shelter will continue to supply with each adopted animal a collar ID tag this is registered in the shelter's new state-of-the-art PetPoint animal shelter data base.

To further encourage adoption of our shelter animals, a free gift of thirty days of Shelter Care Pet Insurance is being included with the adoption. People may also purchase this for their other household pets. At the end of the thirty days, the pet owner may discontinue the insurance or continue with it by purchasing it from the pet insurance company.

The Currituck Animal Shelter is the first shelter in northeastern North Carolina to offer both the free microchipping and the 30 days of free pet insurance for pets adopted from a shelter.

The low adoption fee now includes: a dog or cat that has been spayed or neutered if they are old enough, or a Spay/Neuter Voucher for any animals who are not yet old enough to have the procedure; important tests and vaccinations, including a rabies vaccination for animals who are old enough to receive it; a heartworm test for dogs and an felv/fiv test for cats; a collar ID tag; microchipping with registration in a national data base; and a gift of 30 days of free pet insurance.

We hope that these additional services will encourage people to come adopt a new best friend who needs a loving home.

When you allow your pets to breed more kittens or puppies, buy a pet from a "backyard" animal breeder or spend hundreds of dollars on a purebred pet, you might be missing a great pet from our shelter that will cost you a whole lot less-and love you just as much!

We think that when you make a dollar to dollar comparison, you just won't find a better value than you will if you adopt a pet from your local animal shelter.

Please, if you are considering a new pet for your home, stop by our shelter and give one of our pets a chance!
