Montgomery County, TN – Montgomery County Animal Care and Control (MCACC) received a $2,000 Petfinder ‘Nestle Purina New Year, New Home Pet Adoption Grant’ from the Petfinder Foundation this week.

The Petfinder ‘Nestle Purina New Year, New Home Pet Adoption Grant’ program is used to help subsidize pet adoptions with free or fee-reduced fees at Petfinder organizations that are awarded this grant.

“We are grateful to be awarded with this grant because it provides us with an additional opportunity to have more of our dogs and cats placed in their forever homes. We continuously look for assistance in placing our animals, and are thrilled to be selected for this grant,” said MCACC Director David Kaske.

Purina Petfinder and the Petfinder Foundation believe every adoptable pet deserves a forever home. The Petfinder.com Foundation assists the 12,000+ animal shelters and rescue groups that post their adoptable pets on Petfinder.com.

A nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization, the Petfinder Foundation helps adoption organizations find homes for the pets in their care through its Sponsor A Pet, Disaster Fund, Quality of Life and other programs.

Since its founding in 2003, the Petfinder Foundation has given more than $20 million in cash and product grants to shelters and rescue groups in the United States, Canada and Mexico.
