For the fourth straight year, NBC 5 and Telemundo Chicago are teaming up with animal shelters to waive adoption fees across the Chicago area and help pets in need find forever homes. The pet adoption initiative known as Clear the Shelters takes place nationwide 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Aug. 18.
In Chicago alone, dozens of animal shelters will waive or discount fees during the one-day adoption drive. The waived fees apply to "adult pets," which are animals that are 6 months and older, and the adoption policies for each individual shelter still apply.
