All Day
NBCUniversal Local is teaming up with the Hawaiian Humane Society and hundreds of shelters across the country to host Clear The Shelters in August 2025, a nationwide pet adoption and donation campaign that helps find loving homes for animals in need.
From August 1 through August 31, adopt one kitten and the second kitten’s adoption fee is completely waived at Hawaiian Humane’s Mōʻiliʻili Campus, Kosasa Family Campus at Hoʻopili and at select PETCOs on Oʻahu. Additionally, adult dogs and cats will have adoption fees reduced by 50% throughout the month!
Kittens who grow up together develop stronger social skills and experience less anxiety throughout their lives. They keep each other entertained with endless play sessions, provide comfort during stressful situations and help each other learn proper behaviors through natural interaction. Two kittens naturally fulfill each other’s social and exercise needs, making the transition to their new home smoother for everyone.
Adult dogs and cats bring their own special advantages to families. These mature companions already have established personalities that make it easier to find the perfect match for your ʻohana, home and lifestyle. Many adult pets have already learned basic commands and social skills, making the transition into your home remarkably smooth.
These adoption specials recognize that both young and mature animals deserve loving homes, and that families benefit tremendously from welcoming pets at any life stage.
Visit one of our adoption locations today to meet our adorable available pairs and find your ideal match among both our young kittens and adult companions waiting for their second chance.
Can’t commit to adopting? There are ways you can join us to “clear the shelters” here at Hawaiian Humane’s Mōʻiliʻili and Kosasa Family campuses by being a Couch Crasher family or fostering, volunteering or donating.
