The Lawton Animal Welfare in Lawton, Oklahoma, is urgently seeking homes for their overcrowded kennels and is hosting a fee-free adoption event ending Saturday, July 19. They have a variety of cats, dogs, puppies, kittens, and even two roosters available for adoption. While adoptions are generally free, a refundable $17.25 deposit is required for animals under three months old until they receive their rabies vaccine. The shelter operates weekly from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. and on Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., but is closed Sundays and Mondays.

In addition to typical pets, the shelter is helping rehome two roosters, which are not allowed within Lawton city limits, to homes outside the city. Interested adopters must be at least 18 years old, provide ID, and renters must supply landlord contact information. Those interested in adopting or learning more can contact the shelter directly or visit their website for details.
