Vernon Parish Animal Shelter Waives Adoption Fees Amid Overcrowding

The Vernon Parish Animal Shelter (VPAS) is urgently seeking adopters and fosters as it faces another wave of overcrowding. With limited space and a growing number of dogs, puppies, cats, and kittens, the shelter is working to place as many animals as possible into new homes.

To encourage adoptions, VPAS is waiving fees for all animals that have already been spayed or neutered. The shelter has a wide range of pets ready for adoption, each looking for a permanent home and the opportunity to become a loyal companion.

Fostering is also an option for those unable to commit to adoption. Every animal placed—either temporarily or permanently—helps ease capacity concerns and gives the shelter more room to care for incoming animals.

Community members are encouraged to visit the shelter to meet the available pets. From playful puppies to affectionate cats, there are many animals hoping for a second chance.
