| The SPCA will not turn away any animal from our shelter.
But the simple truth is every new stray or abandoned pet we get puts pressure on the limited space we have for others. From our experience over the years, only about 2 out of every 10 have the chance of finding homes with the kind people who turn up at our door.
The rest of the animals, sadly, are put to sleep.
It is not something we want any more than you do. We get over 600 animals on average every month, about one animal every hour of the day, on average.
