Hsinchu is offering a year of free pet insurance with every adopted dog or cat to help ease the financial burden of pet ownership and encourage adoption.
The Hsinchu City Animal Protection and Health Inspection Office on Sunday said that it was expanding the project after a pilot program it started in October last year had proved successful.
The project would also be expanded to cover adult cats, from only dogs in the pilot program, it said.
People who are interested in becoming pet owners are encouraged to adopt, although the number of insurance policies on offer are limited, the office said.
