EDMOND — Animal shelter

schedule changed

The regularly scheduled Saturday Adoption Day at the Edmond Animal Shelter has been canceled this month.

The shelter is scheduling the second Saturday of each month to be open for adoptions only, said Jim Fish, supervisor of animal welfare. The volunteer group, Paws for Life, assists on these Saturdays. The normal adoption fee is $70. On Saturdays the fee is $40 for dogs and $35 for cats.

Fish said summertime is one of the best times to adopt a pet because children are home from school and everyone has time to care for a new animal. Fish said don’t forget to put a tag and collar on your pet because the shelter gets a lot of animals without proper identification.

If you have lost an animal, call the shelter 216-7615.

    Q: Can an agreement be enforced if it is not in writing?
    A: Although it is generally advisable to put every agreement in writing, most agreements can be enforced without written evidence of the deal. Both oral and written contracts can, in the right circumstances, bind the parties to perform.
