CARROLLTON(CBSDFW.COM) -  Due to the recent flooding, the City of Carrollton Animal Adoption Center (2247 Sandy Lake Road) is brimming with animals and needs help from the community.

As of Wednesday, the center has more than 100 adoptable pets.

Because of this, adoption fees will be waived and the first 20 unaltered animals to be adopted will come with a voucher for a free spay or neuter via the Texas Coalition for Animal Protection (TCAP).

"We are housing a number of animals to support those that were evacuated due to flooding," said Carl Shooter, Animal Services Manager. "None of these animals are being placed for adoption, but they are increasing our demand for space, which is already very limited."

This guy has been at the shelter since April 15.

This girl has been there since April 22.

The Animal Services team says it's working tirelessly to serve all of the animals in the shelter right now. If an adoption isn't feasible, donations are always welcome in the form of cash, food, litter, towels, blankets, or toys.
