Pasadena Humane Waives Adoption Fees In Summer-Themed Pet Promotion

PASADENA, Calif. (July 7, 2025) Pasadena Humane is excited to announce the “Hot Dog & Cool Cat” summer adoption promotion, running from July 9 to July 20. During this special event, adoption fees for all adult dogs and cats (six months and older) will be waived, making it easier than ever for families to welcome a furry companion into their homes. This initiative is made possible thanks to the generous sponsorship of the Pet Care Foundation, with support from a grant provided by the Georgia B. Ridder Foundation.  

As more animals arrive at the shelter during the busy summer months, this promotion aims to connect some of the nearly 150 adoptable dogs and cats at Pasadena Humane with families ready to welcome them home. “We’re thrilled to offer this opportunity for our community to adopt a loving companion at no cost,” said Marissa Sunny, Senior Director of Placement at Pasadena Humane. “We hope that this promotion will inspire people to bring home a new pet during this critical time of year. There’s no better time than now to make a difference in a pet’s life.”  

Pasadena Humane encourages residents to visit the shelter during the promotion period and meet the incredible dogs and cats awaiting adoption. Adoptions are open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and are on a first-come, first-served basis. Our standard screening process applies. Adoptions include spay or neuter, a microchip, and age-appropriate vaccines. Available pets can be viewed at pasadenahumane.org.
