As Hamilton County’s animal shelter, Cincinnati Animal CARE takes in every stray dog that comes through our doors. Spring and summer are some of the busiest times of year for shelters, with animal intake increasing rapidly. Every adoption helps create critical space and resources for the next animal in need.
That’s why partnerships with BISSELL Pet Foundation are so impactful. Through Empty the Shelters, BISSELL Pet Foundation helps offset adoption costs for shelters across the country, making it easier for families to adopt while helping shelters save more lives.

This event is truly a win-win-win:
- Pets find loving homes
- Adopters gain a lifelong companion
- Shelters create space for incoming animals
Every adoption saves two lives: the pet going home and the one who can now take their place in the shelter.
Whether you’re looking for a playful adventure buddy, a laid-back couch companion, or a sweet senior pet, our team is ready to help you find the right match.
Join us May 15–17 and help us Empty the Shelters!
