Older pets make wonderful companions and have so much love to give. If you choose to open your home to a cat or dog that's 6 years or older, you will receive a $250 care credit at Pender Veterinary Centre. Thank you to the Friends of Fairfax County Animal Shelter for supporting our senior pets with this credit.
NBCUniversal Local is teaming up with hundreds of shelters across the country to host Clear the Shelters in August 2026, a nationwide pet adoption and donation campaign that helps find loving homes for animals in need. More than 1 million pets have found homes since 2015.
