SEATTLE — KING 5 is featuring several Seattle area dogs and cats in need of homes in honor of a month-long pet adoption and donation campaign via NBCUniversal Local.

Clear The Shelters launched nine years ago and since then - NBCU Local’s Clear The Shelters has helped more than 860,000 pets find new homes. Last year's campaign set a new single-year record with more than 161,000 adoptions, while also raising more than $540,000. 

During the monthlong event, NBC and Telemundo stations across the U.S. and Puerto Rico are partnering with more than 1,300 shelters to help animals find new homes as the campaign nears a major milestone: one million all-time pet adoptions.
