SQSPCA Event To Feature Free Services, Adoption Discounts, Donation Drive
ONEONTA—In an effort to provide services for pet owners who may be having a difficult time affording basic food and medical care for their cats and dogs, the Susquehanna Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is holding a free Adoption Event and Wellness Clinic at Neahwa Park on Sunday, May 18 from noon to 2 p.m.
According to Executive Director Stacie Haynes, SQSPCA medical staff will provide microchipping, rabies vaccines and distemper vaccines on a first come, first served basis at no charge. They will also trim pet nails and clean ears, as needed. No appointment is necessary.
“We are able to provide these services at no cost to participants thanks to our lead sponsors, Otsego Auto Crushers and Morris Garage,” Haynes explained.
Adoptions on May 18, subject to approval via the shelter’s adoption counseling process, will be 25 percent off, though additional fees may apply, she added.
In conjunction with the adoption/wellness event, Five Star Subaru will also be on hand at Neahwa Park that day, showcasing various Subaru vehicles and helping to collect donations of food, cleaning supplies, and other items for use at the SQSPCA and to stock the shelter’s free Pet Pantry.
