If you’ve been thinking about adding a furry, or feathered friend to your life, tomorrow would be a pretty good day to do it.
The BC SPCA is hosting the Fall Head Over Tails in Love adoption event tomorrow. During the one day event, animals in BC SPCA care will be able to go to a loving home for a reduced fee.
Domestic animals, like dogs, cats, kittens, rats and rabbits will be eligible for 50% off the adoption fee and BC Pet Registry fee. The BC SPCA adds that discount rates for any farm animals will be decided on a case-by-case basis.
“Each one of our branches is committed to finding loving homes for these animals,” says Mark Takhar, BC SPCA’s chief operations officer. “Welcoming a rescued animal into your home can be an exciting time for everyone involved. Our top priority is to ensure that every animal finds their perfect people, so our usual matching process will still be in effect for this event.”
Takhar says the event will also allow the BC SPCA to help other animals.
“When one animal finds their forever home, it gives us the opportunity to assist other animals who might be in need of care,” he says. “We want to make sure no animal is left behind, and this event in particular – a groundbreaking one for the BC SPCA – will allow us to help other vulnerable animals throughout the province.”
In 2017, the BC SPCA found loving families for more than 15,000 animals.
