"The Indy Mega-Adoption event marks two significant milestones for animal health and well-being,” event organizer Megan Bennett said in a press release. “At the same time, we are seeing a record number of shelters from Indiana coming to Indianapolis as part of this collective effort to find loving homes for animals while cutting down on needless euthanasia."
All animals have an adoption fee of $30 and are already fixed, vaccinated and micro-chipped.
The event is free to attend and parking is $5.
