In-Person Adoption Events to Take Place at Local PetSmart Stores February 28 – March 6

Feb. 16, 2022 – TAMPA, FL — Each year, more than five million pets enter animal shelters in need of loving homes. Rescue Pets of Florida is proud to partner with PetSmart Charities® to bring adoptable pets to Brandon, Plant City, St. Petersburg, Valrico and Wesley Chapel PetSmart stores in support of National Adoption Week, taking place February 28 – March 6, 2022.

During the in-store event, Rescue Pets of Florida invites potential pet parents to meet adoptable pets in their area. Opportunities will be given to spend time with animals in need of loving homes in a spacious area. Staff and volunteers will help potential adopters learn about caring for a pet and the types of tools, products and services they may need.

To view all available pets for adoption, please visit the Rescue Pets of Florida Facebook page.

“National Adoption Week is an ideal opportunity to give a pet what they need most – people to love,” said Heidi Fulcher, Adoptions Grant Manager at PetSmart Charities. “Over the years, together with local partners such as Rescue Pets of Florida, we’ve matched more than 9.5 million pets with loving homes. Most pet parents say their pets are important family members that enhance their lives, too. That’s a win-win!”
