The Municipality of Figueira da Foz is holding an Open Day at the Animal Shelter (CRAFF) on October 2nd, dedicated to the conscious and responsible adoption of companion animals.

The initiative, taking place between 10:30 AM and 4:30 PM, is part of the celebrations for World Animal Day on October 4th. The goal is to create an opportunity for interaction between the 23 animals currently housed at CRAFF and potential adopters, emphasizing the importance of a thoughtful and responsible decision.
All animals available for adoption at CRAFF are electronically identified, internally and externally dewormed, vaccinated against infectious diseases, with valid rabies vaccination, and sterilized. These measures ensure the animals are ready to find a new home.
Adopting an animal means taking on a long-term commitment, including providing care, protection, and well-being throughout its life. The Municipality invites anyone who feels prepared for this commitment to visit the center and meet the animals.
