Comcast Offers On-Demand Pet Adoptions

Comcast Cable has expanded its “Get Local” programs available on-demand for cable subscribers to include pet adoptions.  The Unleashed Blog, part of the Baltimore Sun website reported that more than 300 pets have already been featured on the greater Baltimore area system.

The company works with the Humane Society of Harford County and the SPCA of Anne Arundel County, Unleashed reports.

Subscribers can access the free pet adoption information if they have a digital cable subscription.  Apparently many already do, as it is among the ten most popular offerings, according to Comcast representatives.  Viewers receive complete information about the pets, including their temperament, which is particularly useful information for finding the right home.

Comcast is to be applauded for this innovative community service, which can hopefully reduce the problem of temporarily unwanted pets and bring happiness to families looking to adopt one.
