Great idea; however, this has been done before and it results in many of the adopted animals being brought back because the adopter discovered they didn’t really want an animal to take care of. What does this do to the animal, thinking it found a family, only to be dumped back into the prison it came from, with no idea why? I would rather see the animal shelters having a spay/neuter day, free, to anyone who brings in an animal.
