THIS PAST WEEKEND, 73 ANIMALS WERE BROUGHT INTO THE SPCA ANIMAL SHELTER IN MONTEREY COUNTY WHICH IS A HIGH NUMBER. IT IS AN OPEN ADMISSION SHELTER AND THEY DO NOT TURN PEOPLE AWAY. SUMMERTIME IS WHEN THE SHELTER SEES THE MOST ‘SURRENDERS’ BECAUSE THIS IS THE TIME WHEN PEOPLE ARE OFTEN MOVING WITHOUT THEIR ANIMALS. IT HAS BEEN DIFFICULT FOR THE FACILITY TO FIND HOMES FOR THEIR EXOTIC ANIMALS, LIKE HORSES, BIRDS, AND OTHERS. IF YOU WANT TO HELP YOU CAN ADOPT APET, DONATE MONEY, FOSTER AN ANIMAL, AND MAKE SURE YOUR PETS ARE SPAYED AND NEUTERED.
