Learn about the Nestle Purina Pet Adoption event at Poplar Bluff in 2010 where 14 pets found their forever homes. The event, co-hosted by Nestle Purina PetCare Co. and the Animal Welfare Alliance (AWA), featured dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens from local shelters. Adoption fees ranged from $5 to $10 with a commitment to spaying or neutering the pet. The AWA, a nonprofit organization, supports the Poplar Bluff Animal Shelter by organizing adoption events and offering financial aid for spaying and neutering. Marketing efforts included distributing flyers, hanging posters, and press releases in local media. Join us in celebrating the success of this community-driven pet adoption initiative.

Pet Adoption Press Release PET ADOPTION FAIR AT WAL-MART SEPT. 11 POPLAR BLUFF, Mo. --- Nestle Purina PetCare Co. and the Animal Welfare Alliance (AWA) will co-host a pound-pet adoption fair from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday, Sept. 11, at the Poplar Bluff Walmart store on South Westwood Boulevard. A Purina representative will be present to give out pet trinkets and discount coupons for Purina dog and cat food brands. AWA volunteers will have dogs, cats, puppies and kittens at the store from the Poplar Bluff Animal Shelter (city pound). The animals, most of which have not had recent veterinary care, will be available for adoption for $5 to $10; adopting individuals sign a contract promising to have the pet spayed or neutered. (AWA will have application forms for spay-neuter financial aid for low-income pet owners.) The nonprofit AWA helps out at the Poplar Bluff Animal Shelter on Saturdays trying to increase the number of adoptions at the pound. The group holds off-site adoption events about once a month at parks or commercial locations around Poplar Bluff.
