Pet owners who need to rehome pets can list pet information and pictures on the website of the SPCA Serving Erie County free of charge. Rehome by Adopt-a-Pet.com is being offered by the SPCA Serving Erie County as a courtesy to local pet owners.
“Our West Seneca location is typically filled to capacity as we work to meet the needs of the animals most in-need and at-risk,” says SPCA President/CEO Cait Daly. “Healthy, owned pets who need rehoming usually cannot be admitted by our SPCA or, unfortunately, by many local animal shelters, rescues and organizations also filled to capacity. By using Rehome, pet owners can display photos of their pets on the SPCA’s popular website in the hopes of finding new owners. Additionally, people who have been searching for particular types or breeds of animals not often found in shelters may find what they’ve been waiting for through Rehome.”
At //YourSPCA.org/Rehome, pet owners can learn more about how to list pets on YourSPCA.org. By using a coupon code provided on the page, pet listings will be free of charge for local users. Photos of available animals are also displayed on that page and can be viewed by those seeking new pets.
“This is another way the SPCA Serving Erie County has responded to a need in our community, putting compassion into action,” Daly adds. “This year the need to surrender pets far outweighed our resources and ability to admit animals for rehoming. We know several animal organizations in our region faced the same challenge. Thanks to Adopt-a-Pet.com, Rehome allows pet owners to responsibly seek new homes on their own, which is exponentially easier on the animal. Shelter stress is a very real thing despite our every attempt to make it as stress-free as possible. With Rehome, animals may never need to enter shelter environments.”
