SPCA Cat Population Hits a High News & Events >> Press Releases >>SPCA Cat Population Hits a High June 16, 2009 (Sacramento, CA) -- They arrive by the box -- kitten season in full bloom. They are the four-legged victims of the foreclosure crisis. They are simply unwanted -- an inconvenient part of someone's life. Their stories are as varied and as plentiful as the cats themselves. The Sacramento SPCA is currently facing a cat crisis, with hundreds of cats and kittens in need of homes. The SPCA's adoption center is at capacity. Cats of all ages have filled the cages in the shelter's new portable trailers. The volume of cats and kittens coming in to the SPCA has created a greater need than ever for temporary foster homes. To help encourage much-needed cat adoptions, the SPCA is offering more than half-off cat adoption fees through the month of July. Through July 31, cat adoption fees have been reduced to $40. Adoptions include spay or neuter surgery, vaccinations, microchip, license, veterinary check and more. The public is encouraged to visit the Sacramento SPCA adoption center Tuesday through Sunday from 11 am to 6 pm and take advantage of this limited-time adoption fee reduction. For more information, or to view some of the SPCA's adoptable animals, visit www.sspca.org.
