Dia DuVernet, president and CEO of Pasadena Humane, said in a statement the shelter is filling up again despite last month's adoption figures and that summer is the busiest time of year for animals coming into the shelter. 

"It's critical that we find homes for the adoptable dogs, cats and critters at the shelter to make space for more pets in need," DuVernet said.

Pasadena Humane also plans additional free adoption days and other promotions this summer, such as Best Friends National Adoption weekend July 22- 24, when adult dogs and cats will be available for $50.
