The Sunshine Coast branch of the BC SPCA invites you to an animal-themed day of fun on Sunday, May 15.
The open house, presented by Hill's Science Diet, takes place from noon to 3 p.m. at the Sunshine Coast SPCA, 4376 Solar Rd. in Sechelt.
In addition to featuring pets looking for loving homes, activities at the open house will include shelter tours, refreshments, an ask-a-vet booth, door prizes and more.
Hill's Science Diet is partnering with BC SPCA branches across the province to promote adoption of homeless animals during Be Kind to Animals Month in May.
"The open house series is an opportunity for people to meet the animals available for adoption and to have fun learning more about how to help animals in the community," said Lorie Chortyk, general manager of community relations for the BC SPCA. "We are extremely grateful to Hill's for sponsoring this series to showcase the wonderful animals we have for adoption."
Hill's donates free food for all dogs, cats, puppies and kittens in BC SPCA branches across the province to ensure that the animals receive a high quality and consistent pet food. The program promotes the health of shelter animals, making them more adoptable, and enables animals to be transferred between shelters without suffering any ill effects from changing pet food.
The BC SPCA adopts more than 18,000 animals each year through its 37 branches. All animals adopted from the BC SPCA are vet-checked, vaccinated, spayed or neutered and assessed for temperament.
