SPCA Serving Erie County Offers Free Adoptions to Current and Past Military Members During Vets & Pets
May 17, 2022
By: SPCA Chief Communications Officer Gina Lattuca
To thank 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 and immediate families of individuals on active duty, reserves, and honorable discharge, along with service-disabled veterans and those retired from military service. This program, a longtime SPCA tradition, is proudly brought to our community by philanthropist and SPCA supporter Nancy Gacioch of Buffalo!
Vets & Pets begins Monday, May 23 and runs through Monday, May 30* at the SPCA’s 300 Harlem Rd., West Seneca shelter and all SPCA off-site adoption locations.
Photos of all adoptable animals can be found here >>.
See a list of our off-site locations here >>.
Military ID or DD214 will need to be presented. If an individual is currently serving outside of New York State, that individual’s spouse can adopt during Vets & Pets if a military spouse identification card is presented. Adopters can apply the Vets & Pets waived adoption fee promotion toward a total of two animals.
Please contact SPCA Adoptions Supervisor Krissi Miranda with any questions: (716) 875-7360, ext. 233.
*Please note: The SPCA’s West Seneca shelter is closed on Sunday and Monday, May 29 and 30, but many of the SPCA’s off-site adoption locations are open those two days!
