Donate two new box fans for free adoptions at Tyler Animal Services

As the summer months approach, Tyler Animal Services is partnering with PATH (People Attempting to Help) to make a meaningful difference for local families and animals in need of loving homes.

This May, adoption fees for dogs and cats will be waived with the donation of two new box fans. Twenty-inch box fans are preferred. These fans will be donated to PATH, a local nonprofit that supports East Texans facing hardship.

PATH offers a range of essential services, including rent and utility assistance, emergency prescriptions, food, dental and vision care, and affordable housing. Each year, they serve more than 25,000 individuals across the region. The donated fans will help PATH clients stay cool and safe during the extreme summer heat, as many of them lack adequate air conditioning.

Typically, adoption fees are $120 for dogs and $80 for cats. With this month's promotion, your donation of two box fans replaces the adoption fee, making it easier than ever to welcome a new pet into your home.

All adopted animals are spayed or neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations. To view animals available for adoption, visit the Pets Available for Adoption page. If you'd like to apply online, go to the Adopt a Pet page and use the ID number when applying.

The Tyler Animal Shelter is located at 4218 Chandler Hwy. For more information, call (903) 535-0045.
