NKUT Super Adoption
September 30, 2016 @ 12:00 am - 7:00 pm
Free
What is NKUT Super Adoption?
It’s a cooperative effort in which shelters and rescue groups come together in a free, fun, festival-like atmosphere to find homes for hundreds of animals during a weekend. The participating shelters and rescue groups are members of Best Friends–Utah’s NKUT Coalition. Generally held twice a year at the Utah State Fairpark, NKUT Super Adoption is the continuation of a nearly 20-year run of large adoption events in Salt Lake City, called Pet Super Adoptions, which began in 2000.
What to expect
Expect to have a lot of fun, and to meet a huge number of adorable, adoptable animals. Each participating rescue group and shelter at the event has its own adoption application, interview process and adoption fee structure. Adoption fees help cover costs such as spay/neuter, vaccinations and other medical needs. Please note that all participating shelters and many of the participating rescue groups offer same-day adoptions, but some groups require home checks as part of the application process. Potential adopters should come prepared with a valid form of identification and payment. If you’re a renter, it’s a good idea to have a letter from your landlord stating that you are allowed to have a pet.
