Hundreds of adult cats (one year and older) are available for adoption for $25. The lowered rate runs through the end of October.

"If people are thinking of adopting a cat, now is the time," Bob Rohde said, Dumb Friends League president. "We also hope that people might consider adopting two cats for the $25 adoption fee. Many cats do better in pairs, as they are highly sociable and enjoy each other's company."

DFL Communications and Marketing Specialist Kristina Vourax added, "The spay/neuter service is included in the adoption fee as well as preliminary vaccinations and a microchip implant."

DFL also has opportunities for people who are not ready to adopt but want to help. Foster care opportunities are available. To become a foster parent contact the shelter at 303-751-5772 ext. 7627 or visit www.ddfl.org.
