SPCA Serving Erie County Offers Free Adoptions to Current and Past Military Members During Vets & Pets
May 13, 2019
By: SPCA Chief Communications Officer Gina Lattuca
To celebrate the men and women of the armed services this Memorial Day, the SPCA Serving Erie County offers “Vets & Pets,” waiving adoption fees on most animals for individuals on active duty, reserves, and honorable discharge, along with service-disabled veterans and those retired from military service.
Vets & Pets begins Saturday, May 18 and runs through Monday, May 27* at the SPCA’s 300 Harlem Rd., West Seneca shelter (closed on May 27) and all SPCA offsite adoption locations.
Photos of adoptable animals are available here, and a list of offsite adoption locations and addresses can be found here. Military ID or DD214 will need to be presented.
Vets & Pets is proudly sponsored by Nancy Gacioch of Buffalo, NY.!
Contact SPCA Adoptions with any questions: 716-875-7360, ext. 233.
*Please note: The SPCA’s West Seneca shelter is closed on the final day of Vets & Pets Monday, May 27, but many of the SPCA’s offsite adoption locations are open that day! That means you can still take advantage of the Vets & Pets adoption special! See a list of our offsite locations and photos of the animals available here!
