"Focinho Responsável" Hosts Pet Adoption Event in Conjunto Graciliano Ramos

Maceió, July 23, 2026 - " Focinho Responsável " is hosting its latest dog and cat adoption event this Saturday, July 25. The event will take place at the central square in Conjunto Graciliano Ramos, located in upper Maceió, from 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. The initiative brings together rescued dogs and cats waiting for a loving family and offers the public a chance to meet the pets in person, learn about their unique personalities, and promote responsible pet ownership.

To ensure a smooth transition, prospective adopters can take advantage of a trial period of up to three days before finalizing the adoption. This gives the pet and the family time to bond and see if the new home is a good fit. If the match is not successful, the pet is safely returned to the program and continues to receive all necessary care and support.

The animals available for adoption have already been spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and dewormed, in addition to receiving veterinary care. The program also provides free transportation to the pet's new home, along with veterinary support during the first three months after adoption.

Animal Welfare

"Focinho Responsável" is part of the Animal Support Program, a partnership between Braskem and the Equine and Integrative Health Research and Extension Group at the Federal University of Alagoas (Grupequi-Ufal). The initiative was created in 2020 to support families relocated under the Financial Compensation Program (PCF) and has provided temporary shelter, veterinary care, vaccinations, and spay/neuter services ever since. It has also rescued abandoned or stray animals found in vacated areas.

Currently, the Program cares for 439 animals, mainly dogs and cats, some of which are available for responsible adoption. Since its creation, Focinho Responsável has organized 39 adoption fairs and participated in several educational and community outreach initiatives, helping more than one thousand animals find a new home.
