WITH regular reports about the dogs up for adoption at the Alberton SPCA, the SPCA shed some light on why it is better for families to rather adopt a pet than buy one:
*Adoption helps stop pet overpopulation.
*Adoption saves lives.
*Adoption gives a second chance.
*Adoption often costs less.
Help the SPCA reduce the number of abandoned animals. Adopting from a shelter is an act of rescue and love. “It is a good deed for you, for the shelter, but especially for the animal who needs you. Add to that the pleasure of having a new companion, and you’ll be happy to be the one who was able to offer him a second chance,” said Vanja Ingold, a member at Alberton SPCA.
