“Come storm our shelter”
“Come storm our shelter… We have great animals ready to protect you from the Area 51 aliens. Adoption isn’t that far out of this world!#stormtheshelter,” the representatives of the animal welfare center wrote on their Facebook page.

“Adoption isn’t that far out of this world!”
The center also included some space-themed photos of their lovely inhabitants that are up for adoption. They have also dressed up dogs wearing small tin foil hats with an antenna. The post quickly received numerous likes and comments from people. “Well done OKC, this is brilliant! I hope you get a ton of adoptions!” one person commented. “Congratulations to your team for coming up with this incredible idea to help find homes for these babies. Probably the best marketing idea I have seen! Great job!” wrote another.
The post is a reference to the Facebook event page “Storm Area 51, They Can’t Stop All of Us”
The shelter now has 116 dogs, 39 cats, and 2 piggies up for adoption
Thanks to the viral post, two of the three pictured dogs were adopted – except for the black one named Lady. The kitty in the photo above has also found a loving home, unfortunately, not the other fur babies. Before being given away to their new homes, all of the pets are spayed or neutered, get vaccinations and treatments for worms, as well as microchips.
Since the shelter’s post on social media went viral, majority of the animals seen in the photos have been adopted
Hopefully, all of them will soon find their forever homes and loving families
For those interested, the shelter is open for adoptions every day from noon until 5:30 pm. In addition to this, you can find all of the animals that are up for adoption by following this link. The adoption fees for dogs and cats are $60, however, it can be reduced due to special circumstances (such as the animal has been up for adoption for more than two weeks, it’s older than 4 years, it has a certain medical condition, etc.)
