The pet adoption events will provide animal lovers with the chance to meet adoptable pets, learn about area animal adoption groups and inquire about caring for a new pet. Those who adopt a pet from Petco during the National Adoption Weekend will receive a free, small bag of Merrick cat or dog food as well as a free 16-pound jug of Petco cat litter for those who adopt a cat.
The adoption events will take place at Petco stores around the US. Those interested in attending the adoption events should visit Petco's website for a list of store locations and hours.
