PRINCE GEORGE – Looking for a furry new friend?

The BC SPCA is offering half-price adoption fees for all animals in its facilities across British Columbia, March 23-27.

“Our goal is to find as many loving homes as possible for the animals currently in our care so that we can continue to help new, incoming animals with our limited staffing capacity during the COVID-19 crisis,” says Lorie Chortyk, general manager of communications of the BC SPCA.

“Because of the need to limit personal contact, we are asking people to view animals available for adoption on our website and to fill out an online adoption form. Our staff will then contact individuals to set up an in-shelter appointment to meet the animal.”

While staff and volunteers are continuing to care for animals in SPCA facilities, there is no public access until further notice except for appointments for adoptions and emergency surrenders.

“We are truly grateful to our adopters for opening their hearts and homes to the animals in our care,” says Chortyk. “In these unprecedented times, the animals need us more than ever.”
