ATLANTA, Oct. 11, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Always Best Care of Atlanta/Buckhead, in partnership with Sunrise of Buckhead and Best Friends Animal Society, will host a free pet adoption event for local seniors from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Oct. 20, 2018, at the Sunrise of Buckhead located at 1000 Lenox Park Blvd NE, Atlanta, GA 30319. The senior care agency plans to cover all qualifying adoption fees for cats and kittens adopted by seniors 65 and older during this time.

Attendees and community members of Buckhead are encouraged to come out to adopt cats and kittens for low-cost/no-cost and donate supplies to support the Best Friends Animal Society. Supplies needed include paper towels, bleach, hand soap, hand sanitizer, dog toys, cat toys, paper and pens. A full list of items needed can be found at bestfriends.org/donate/other-ways-give/wish-list#BFATL.

"In our local community there are so many shelter cats and kittens in need of loving homes, and we've found that the seniors we care for experience immeasurable benefits from pet ownership," said Latasha Emeri, owner of Always Best Care of Atlanta/Buckhead. "Studies continue to prove that pet ownership helps lower stress levels, blood pressure and depression. By teaming up with Sunrise of Buckhead and Best Friends Animal Society, we plan to cover pet adoption fees in an effort to combat the ongoing issue of depression in Americans over the age of 65. We're excited to help connect seniors and their loved ones with pets in need of a home."
