Collie mixes and black Labrador Retrievers are among the animals that will be available for adoption from the Lauderdale County Humane Society on Saturday at Bonita Lakes Mall.
Volunteers expect to have as many as 20 puppies and kittens available for adoption, many of which have already been spayed or neutered.
Lee encourages anyone who may be interested in an animal to come to the mall Saturday and help out the Humane Society. She warns, however, that no one should make a rushed decision about adopting a pet.
Lee said the group of volunteers, which fosters the animals at their homes until a permanent home can be found, has been able to find homes for more than 150 animals since last September when the mall first opened its doors to the Humane Society.
Lee said that unwanted pets are not to be dropped off at the mall.
