The 69th Porto Alegre Book Fair will have an animal adoption space this Wednesday (1). The action promoted by the Animal Cause Office will take place from 10am to 4pm, at the Porto Alegre City Hall stand, in front of the autograph session stalls. Seven dogs will be available, all vaccinated, microchipped and dewormed.
According to the organizers, the adoption fair aims to increase awareness of the work of the Municipal Shelter (Estrada Bérico José Bernardes, 3489) and encourage adoptions. The majority of adopters are currently residents of Lomba do Pinheiro and Viamão. “We intend to raise awareness among the population even more and have adopters from other regions of the city”, emphasizes the administrative coordinator of the Animal Cause Office, Fabiana de Araújo Ribeiro.
Booklet – In addition to animal adoption, the group of veterinarians from the Animal Cause Office will be distributing promotional material such as the Child Vet Booklet, aimed at children, on the well-being and care of animals. The distribution will be 1 thousand booklets. In total, the city hall will be carrying out approximately 50 activities at the Book Fair stand in three shifts, morning, afternoon and night, until November 15th.
