ROCKVILLE, MD — Montgomery County Animals Services and Adoption Center is waiving adoption fees for all animals during the 4th Annual Holiday SOS Adoption Event .

The county's nonprofit partner — Montgomery County Partners for Animal Well-Being (MCPAW for short) — will cover the cost of adoption fees from Thursday, Dec. 12 to Sunday, Dec. 15.

"We are hoping that none of our animals will have to spend the holidays without a loving family or warm home," the adoption center said in a statement.
