Please remember that animal overpopulation this is a problem we can solve by spaying and neutering our pets. The SPCA spays and neuters all animals adopted here but realize that companion animals come from countless sources. If your pet isn't spayed or neutered, we implore you to have it done. If you cannot afford to do so please call the SPCA for a listing of local low cost spay neuter programs.  Thanks!
