News & Events

Pool Party!

On Saturday August 7th, join Fairmount Pet Shoppe for a day of fun with adoptable pets from PAWS!  The Pool Party will be held in front of Fairmount Pet Shoppe between 11am & 4pm.  Bring a social furry friend or come solo!  What better way to cool off in this heat than to splash around in a kiddie pool and lap up some doggie ice cream?  Staff and volunteers from PAWS will be on hand with wonderful cats and dogs in search of forever homes! Were expecting a great sunny day, but in case of rain the pool party rain date will be Sunday August 8th.  For more information please call the shop.

Blanket and Toy Drive

Fairmount Pet Shoppe is holding a blanket and toy drive for dogs in the ACCT shelter.  The shelter is currently in need of blankets, towels and linens to keep the dogs clean and comfortable.They are also asking for donations of Kong brand and Nylabone brand toys to keep the dogs happy and occupied. Fairmount Pet Shoppe is offering 15% off these brands of toys when you are buying them for ACCT dogs.  We have set up a donation box so you can stop in with your donations during store hours.  The shelter dogs thank you! Please call the store if you would like additional information.

Fairmount Pet Shoppe Voted "Better Than Best"!

Fairmount Pet Shoppe feels honored to have been voted "Best Place to Hold a Kitten for Free" in Philadelphia Weekly's "Better Than Best" article.

The PW writes about Fairmount Pet Shoppe:
Sometimes, when your day is long, your boss is angry and your computer is making noises, you just want to go pet something furry. But because of your landlord, allergic boyfriend or lack of money for human food, let alone pet food, you don't have a pet of your own. Fortunately, Fairmount Pet Shoppe will let you drop by and play with the five to eight foster animals (usually kitties, although there’s an occasional bunny and a permanent store dog) that hang out in cages in the window. The nice ladies at the shop are securing their places in heaven by fostering cats in the store (they did 146 adoptions last year), so if you move, drop the allergic boyfriend or get a better job, you can adopt there too.

Happy New Year! 146 Adoptions!

Fairmount Pet Shoppe is very proud to announce that we did 146 pet adoptions in 2009! Despite the slow economy and fewer people looking to take on the responsibility of a pet, many people opened up their hearts and homes to a needy pet. We are so happy for all the cats and dogs that we have helped to find their forever homes. This is the best part of our day when we see another homeless pet welcomed into a new family. We wish all of them the best of luck! Lets all hope that we can help even more pets in 2010!
