May 11, 2011
Here is the link to the program details which are on the ASPCA Professional website: http://www.aspcapro.org/fresh-step-partnership-will-increase-cat.php
On the website there is also useful information about fee-waived cat adoptions: http://www.aspcapro.org/free-adult-cat-adoptions.php
Please spread the word!
Fresh Step Partnership will Increase Cat Lives Saved The makers of Fresh Step® litter understand that fee-waived adoption campaigns save cat lives by increasing adoptions and decreasing cats’ length of stay in shelters. Fresh Step has partnered with the ASPCA to encourage shelters to try fee-waived adoption promotions during Adopt-a-Shelter-Cat Month this June.
How the Partnership Works
US Shelters who conduct a fee-waived adoption campaign in June 2011, for Adopt-a-Shelter-Cat Month, may receive national media attention courtesy of Fresh Step and the ASPCA, as well as receive valuable coupons for hundreds of dollars worth of Fresh Step kitty litter.
What Agencies Need to Do
Plan a fee-waived cat adoption campaign for June (anything from a one-day “sale” promotion to a month-long effort – it’s your choice).
Learn more about the research behind fee-waived adoptions.
Refer to tips and ideas for successful fee-waived promotions.
Download promotional materials and customizable event collateral to use for your campaign (a communication kit including templates is coming soon courtesy of Fresh Step)
Spread the word about your feline promotion. Register your event by May 19 to get your campaign national coverage. Download the form here.
The ASPCA will promote submitted fee-waived events via its Facebook and Twitter pages, in emails to its 1.8 million members, and post a map on aspca.org (which receives 1.47 million visitors every month) listing fee-waived events across the country – including yours.
Fresh Step’s popular Facebook page will list all the participating shelters.
In July, submit information about your event (via a form to be added to this web page). The first 50 shelters to submit qualifying fee-waived events will receive 50 $10-coupons for Free Fresh
