NORMAN, Okla. (KFOR) – Saturday was Clear The Shelters Day across Oklahoma and the United States, held in conjunction with our network, NBC.

“We have about 50 dogs that are available for adoption right now and about 25 cats. So still plenty of dogs and cats down here available for adoption.” said Ashley Battiest, Animal Shelter Supervisor at the City of Norman Animal Welfare.

Plenty of animals found their forever homes, like a cute little cat who was adopted by the Melroses from Norman Animal Welfare.

“We got a kitty, we’re so excited.” said Shari Melrose.

Second Chance Animal Shelter was also very busy. They even had Guinea Pigs, like little Copper.

“Second chance is dedicated to helping the overpopulation crisis in the pet industry with dogs and cats and pocket pets.” said Eva Craig, a manager at Second Chance Animal Shelter.
