FULTON COUNTY, Ill. — The Humane Society of Fulton County is waiving cat adoption fees this week due to a significant increase in their feline population. In the past two weeks, 45 cats have been taken in, raising the total to 193, as reported in a recent social media post by the organization.

To promote adoptions, the society has eliminated all fees from August 24 until the conclusion of their event at the Parlin-Ingersoll Library in Canton on August 29. The shelter emphasized that this initiative is designed not to give away cats, but to facilitate their transition from the shelter to loving homes. They stated that every kennel that empties provides more space and resources for other cats in need.

Potential adopters must submit applications, meet specific requirements, and receive approval before finalizing an adoption. Additional details about the cats available for adoption can be found on their website.
