The goal is for the community to foster a shelter pet during the last two weeks of December. Families can take a dog or cat home, giving the animal a break from the shelter.
"It's giving your family a chance to bond with an animal that they may not otherwise get a chance to meet," Susan Naylor of SPCA of Brevard said.
About 75% of the pets, on average, end up being adopted.
For information on the program, call 321-567-3615, or stop by the SPCA adoption center on Sisson Road in Titusville.
