CHA is proud to announce a partnership with Pet for the Elderly Foundation. This program allows CHA to offer free or reduced adoption fees to senior adopters over 60 years of age.
An approved adoption application is still required in order to adopt. Companion animals play a crucial role in our lives and this role becomes even more important as we age.
Getting older can be a lonely proposition. Sometimes this loneliness is compounded by loss of mobility and social interaction. Yet animals provide the companionship and unconditional love. A pet is a source of companionship that benefit seniors.
We are the only shelter in the area to provide this to our senior area residents. To read more about the program click below and stop by the shelter to see our available animals or view them on our facebook page or here on our website. http://www.petsfortheelderly.org
