MULTNOMAH COUNTY ANIMAL SERVICES CELEBRATES HALLMARK CHANNEL’S KITTEN BOWL V BY OFFERING A WEEKEND-LONG ADOPTION SPECIAL
Draw for a chance to win a waived-fee adoption for a kitten or cat, and other reduced adoption fees during the Kitten Bowl V Adoption Special from February 2 - 4 at Multnomah County Animal Services, in partnership with North Shore Animal League and the Hallmark Channel.
WHAT: Multnomah County Animal Services (MCAS) is joining North Shore Animal League America, and more than 500 shelter partners across the country, to celebrate Hallmark Channel’s Kitten Bowl V game with a Kitten Bowl Party event. The highlight of the Kitten Bowl party at Multnomah County Animal Services will be the adoption special for all cats or kittens in the shelter, including a chance to win a fee-waived adoption for a kitten or cat. Adopters will draw for their adoption price from a bowl of mini footballs with six different adoption promotions, ranging from 25% off adoption fees, to waived adoption fees for cats and kittens. License fees apply for Multnomah County residents.
Kitten Bowl is the greatest feline football showdown in cable television history and has resulted in over 10,000 adoptions. The competition will be hosted by North Shore Animal League America’s Volunteer, Foster Mom and National Spokesperson, Beth Stern, who will be joined by actress, director, and author, Alison Sweeney, actor, producer and television host, Dean Cain, and four-time Pro Bowl quarterback and Feline Football League Commissioner (FFL) Boomer Esiason to capture every adorable moment of fleet-footed, fur-flying kitten play-off. Kitten Bowl V will premiere Su-PURR Bowl Sunday, February 4, 2018 (12 p.m. ET/PT) on Hallmark Channel.
North Shore Animal League America and its participating shelter partners across the country will once again be hosting Kitten Bowl Parties with free giveaways featuring Kitten Bowl trading cards in addition to adoption specials for approved adopters.
All of the players in the actual Kitten Bowl competition have found loving homes through Hallmark Channel’s partnership with North Shore Animal League America – the world’s largest no-kill, rescue, and animal adoption organization. However, there are plenty of fabulous felines at your local shelter waiting to find their new, loving homes.
