Wear an ugly sweater, adopt a pet for free in metro Atlanta

Ugly sweaters are good for more than just being an ice-breaker at a holiday party.

LifeLine Animal Project is offering free adoptions to anyone who comes into their shelters wearing an ugly holiday sweater. The promotion is valid through Dec. 31 and also includes the animal’s spay or neuter, vaccinations and microchip, a $300 value.

The deal is valid at all of LifeLine’s shelters, including:

• DeKalb County Animal Services, 3280 Chamblee Dunwoody Road, Chamblee
• Fulton County Animal Services, 860 Marietta Blvd. NW, Atlanta
• LifeLine Dog House & Kitty Motel, 129 Lake St., Avondale Estates; 
• LifeLine Cat Adoption Center, 3172 E Ponce de Leon Ave., Scottdale.

If you'd like to help but can't adopt, the shelters are looking for toy donations. They can be found on an Amazon wish list here.
