Saturday Links: San Francisco SPCA Is Waiving Adoption Fees for Older Dogs and Cats

-

  • SF’s animal care center on 16th Street is waiving the $400 adoption fee for dogs and cats seven years or older until August 15. Currently, the SF SPCA shelter in the Mission District is over 20% capacity; the shelter’s “Summer of Love” promotion is aimed to help larger, older dogs find a forever home and free up kennel space; all animals offered by the SPCA are spayed or neutered, microchipped, and are given medical and behavioral screenings before being adopted.
