ASPCA staff holds small black and white kitten

When you have more kittens than you know what to do with, it’s time to hold a mega-adoption event! For nearly two decades, Cat Adoption Team (CAT) has sent home between 50-100 or more kittens in a single day through their annual “Kitten Palooza” adoption event. Over the years, CAT has refined the process to make this one-day event run smoothly and become more enjoyable for staff, volunteers, kittens, and adopters.

During this webinar, you’ll get their time-tested recommendations for how to plan and execute an adoption event that’s low on stress but high on adoptions. You’ll get ideas for marketing to increase adopter turnout, plus suggestions for how to effectively use your space and an appointment-based event to improve the adopter experience, increase the quality of adoptions, and reduce stress for everyone involved. Get ready to host your own mega-adoption event and save more lives!

Takeaways

  • Utilize foster homes to stage the event
  • Get the word out with attention-grabbing event marketing
  • Use timed entry to lower stress and improve adoptions
  • Create adoption spaces to spread out the crowd
  • Host a mega-adoption event that doesn’t make you pull your hair out
