Adopt a shelter pet at Brooklyn Borough Hall on Saturday
Borough President Eric Adams wants you to take home a pet from a shelter– and he’s making it easy by hosting an adopt-a-pet event at Brooklyn Borough Hall on Saturday, Oct. 11, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Pet adoption organizations — along with several tail-wagging dogs and an adorable kitten – joined Adams at Borough Hall on Wednesday to announce the shelter pet push. Adams also says he’s supporting a bill, introduced by State Senator Kevin Parker, to provide a $100 tax credit for people who adopt a pet from a shelter.
BP Adams said he has fond memories of his first dog, ‘Speedy.’
