WILLIAMSON COUNTY, Texas — The Williamson County Animal Shelter is offering free adoptions on Christmas Eve and for two days following Christmas in order to find forever homes for the animals housed there. Large adult dogs and adult cats can be adopted at no cost on December 24, 26 and 27.
Email adoption@wilco.org to make an appointment to see the available animals in person, as walk-ins are not allowed during these times of restrictions due to COVID-19.

Home for the Holidays Foster Program: Now through January 6
The Home For The Holidays foster program continues. Spend the holiday season getting to know your furry foster family member while giving the animal a break from the stress of the shelter environment. Foster parents will learn valuable information about the animal’s personality which will help us find the perfect forever home for them. Foster parents will get to help facilitate meetings with potential adopters. All dogs and cats one year and older are eligible to go home with a foster family through January 6. Email eduran@wilco.org to learn more.
