ARLINGTON, Va. — This weekend, more than two dozen dogs and cats found forever homes during a special pet adoption in the Shirlington neighborhood of Arlington, Virginia.
The 35 dogs and cats were made available for adoption by the Lost Dog and Cat Rescue Foundation. The organization is currently hosting virtual adoptions due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
"We are doing remote adoptions and continuing to place dogs and cats in homes and with fosters. Here’s a few of our friends that snuggled their way into a new home," said the Lost Dog and Cat Rescue in a Tweet that included pictures of animals that were adopted.
While in-person adoption events are canceled, the Lost Dog and Cat Rescue Foundation is setting up "meet and greets" with its rescue animals and potential owners. The organization is also looking to do these meetups in a safe way, to comply with social distancing to the best of its ability.
Adapting to its new business structure and taking adoption virtual is something that the Lost Dog and Cat Rescue Foundation planned for.
Interested adopters should email the link provided in each pet’s bio on the organization's website to learn more. You can learn more and view animals up for adoption by visiting their website here.
