The fifth annual Countdown 2 Zero (C2Z) Adoption Event, has been scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 8, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at a new location, the South Florida Fairgrounds Expo Center East, located at 9067 Southern Blvd.
This free event is the county’s largest annual pet adoption event and will feature close to 1,000 animals — dogs, cats, puppies, kittens, rabbits, birds and more — from Palm Beach County seeking new families and homes.
Organized by the Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League and Palm Beach County Animal Care & Control, the Countdown 2 Zero Adoption Event is a collaborative effort of more than 20 local animal rescue organizations to save the lives of animals in Palm Beach County.
The past four C2Z adoption events found more than 1,300 animals their forever homes.
Both admission and parking are free for the Countdown 2 Zero Adoption Event. Many of the rescue groups will be offering special discounts and adoption incentives, and all new pet parents will receive special gifts, including rabies tags complimentary from Palm Beach County Animal Care & Control, for each adopted pet.
Sponsorship opportunities are available. Call (561) 530-6057 or e-mail info@countdown2zero.org for more information.
Countdown 2 Zero is a public/private community collaboration, initiated by Palm Beach County Animal Care & Control, the Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners and the Peggy Adams Animal Rescue League to bring animal welfare organizations together and end the euthanasia of adoptable animals in Palm Beach County.
