HCHS holds Saturday adoption special

Hill Country Humane Society (HCHS) will be offering a one-day only adoption special in keeping with the spirit of the upcoming national “Clear the Shelters” event, Saturday, Aug. 19.

National advertisements for the campaign have been running on NBC television stations. “Although we will not be participating in the national event this year, we don’t want our community to miss out on the opportunity to help save the lives of your local shelter animals,” said an announcement from HCHS.

From 11 a.m.-4 p.m. Saturday, HCHS will offer all adoptions for only $20.

“We hope this will help us in our effort to find forever homes for all of our wonderful shelter animals. We have many to choose from; cats, dogs, puppies, kittens, seniors, and some with special needs.”

The no-kill shelter and its spay and neuter program, formerly the Christ-Yoder Animal Shelter, are located at 9150 Ranch to Market Road 1431 West in Buchanan Dam. Some of them can be viewed on the shelter website, www.HillCountryHumaneSociety.org. Call the shelter at 512-793-5463 with any questions.
