It’s obvious from the previous post that many animals in Beijing are still in need of a good home. The organization Beijing Adoption Day is holding a pet adoption day today from 4pm to 8pm. The event takes place at the Beichen Shidai Mingmen Baihuo department store at 8 Beichen Donglu, Chaoyang District (朝阳区北辰东路8号北辰时代名门百货).
Beijing Adoption Day has a few requirements for potential pet owners:
- A steady job and address
- The entire family must be behind the adoption
- Make sure that dogs get registered
- Get shots on time and take the animal to the hospital when it’s sick
- Wait until the animal is old enough before spaying/neutering
- No leaving, discarding, or gifting the animal and keeping in touch with its rescuers
- Sign an adoption contract and agree to allow the adoption organization to do a follow-up visit
If you think you can fulfill the above requirements, head on over. You may find the newest, furriest member of your family.
