If you are interested in adopting a specific type of animal, the SPCA can post a pet-wanted card, which will be held for 30 days. The SPCA spayed or neutered over 125 animals that came through its doors in the past year, all to be adopted. The SPCA solely relies on donations from the public. The SPCA uses a case of D batteries each month, which operate air freshener machines in the building. The SPCA accepts volunteers over the age of 16, to help with caring for the animals, special events, office duties and the visiting pet program.
College students are welcome to come and walk the dogs and socialize with the cats.
In order to adopt out healthy animals, the SPCA must provide the animals with the appropriate vaccines. The SPCA holds educational tours for local schools and groups. Ninety percent of the stray animals taken to the shelter are not wearing identification tags, rabies tags or county tags. Well spring has arrived at the SPCA, for us at the shelter it starts with kittens being abandoned after hours, usually in cardboard boxes taped with duct-tape, and as if that isn't bad enough they don't even have airholes. This scene will replay over and over until October.
