Calling all animal lovers – it’s time to meet your new best friend!

From June 5 to 7, the Mississauga Animal Shelter is opening its doors to potential and existing pet owners to meet and adopt pets waiting for their forever home. Pets available for adoption include cats, dogs, rabbits and more! View a selection of pet profiles online.

Why adopt?

When you adopt from the shelter, you give an animal a second chance at a happy life. You also help reduce the number of animals without homes and support animal care in your community. Adopting during this event will give you the following benefits:

  • 50% discount on adoption fees for most animals (discount does not apply for pocket pets such as hamsters and guinea pigs).
  • A full health check.
  • Free first vaccines (Rabies not included).
  • Microchip implantation (price included in the adoption fee).
  • A free spay or neuter voucher if your new pet has not had the surgery yet.
  • 50% discount on your new pet licence.
  • On-site support from an expert dog trainer to make bringing a new pet home easier.

Mississauga residents that are current pet owners can take part too. If your pet is already licensed, you can get 50% off microchipping, get free support from an expert dog trainer, and visit a vaccine clinic on Friday, June 5 between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. The clinic will offer rabies, FVRCP, and DHPP vaccinations for $25 each.

If you are licensing your pet for the first time during the event, you can get a 50% discount on all pet licences.
