      Flat Out Adoptable: New

      Program Aims To Help Long-
      Term Shelter Pets


        The Humane Society of the Treasure Coast is introducing an
      innovative new program — Flat Out Adoptable — to help its
      longest term shelter pets that are waiting for their forever home.
      With this program, the nonprofit organization will provide a
      life-size cardboard cutout of an adoptable animal to a supporter
      who will promote the pet by displaying it everywhere from a
      car window and front door to the workplace and more.
        “Our goal is that these images and also videos will
      attract new potential adopters to come and see our featured
      pets and consider them for adoption,” said Sarah Fisher,
