Half-Price Adoptions Offered

Through Year’s End At SSPCA

Ozzie is one of the adult dogs that may be adopted at half-price from the Susquehanna SPCA through the end of the year.

COOPERSTOWN – Now through the end of the year, adoptions of all adult dogs and cats are 50 percent off at the Susquehanna SPCA.

“Our shelter has been operating at capacity for weeks,” said Executive Director Stacie Haynes. “The sooner we find good homes for the animals currently in our care, the faster we can begin working to adopt out cats and dogs on the waiting list.”

The Susquehanna SPCA is located just south of Cooperstown at 4841 State Highway 28. The shelter is open Tuesday through Saturday from noon to 5 p.m. and, once approved, most adoptions are same-day.

Among the animals currently seeking their forever homes are:

  • Ozzie: Ozzie is 2-3 years old and 80 pounds of pure love! He has lived with other dogs, doesn’t seem to mind cats and would go great with older kids. Ozzie is a chunky, goofy boy who would make a great addition to a family!
  • Bernie: Bernie is a senior “bagel” (bassett hound/beagle) who was found as a stray. He gets along amazingly with all people, kids, dogs and cats. Due to his age, Bernie does have some health issues and will need some extra TLC!
  • Gingerbread: Gingerbread is 6 years old and will have been at the shelter for a year this February. He has a larger-than-life personality and is extremely silly, talkative, and affectionate. Gingerbread is in the early stages of kidney disease and will require some special care, but we promise he is worth it!
  • Liza Jane: Liza Jane is 3 years old and full of spunk. She is extremely friendly, talkative and loves getting her belly rubbed. If you are looking for a super affectionate cat, Liza Jane is your girl!

In operation since 1917, the Susquehanna SPCA is a 501 (c) 3 nonprofit organization committed to caring for homeless and abandoned animals and finding them loving, forever homes. For more information on available dogs and cats, visit www.sqspca.org.
