Reasons To Adopt

When you adopt a dog or cat from the Tompkins County SPCA, your new friend comes with a whole lot of extras to get you started:

• Pets have been vaccinated for many diseases (puppies and kittens have received their first set but may need more)
• General health and behavior screening
• All dogs and cats, including puppies and kittens, already spayed/neutered
• Free bag of Science Diet pet food
• Free engraved identification tag
• A free veterinary exam honored by most local veterinarians within two weeks of adoption
• Free dog behavior counseling if your dog isn’t adjusting well or later develops problems
• Discounted tuition for SPCA Dog Obedience Classes
• Two week guarantee that if your pet gets sick, we will take him/her back and refund your adoption fee.
• Staff support if you have questions or comments about your pet seven days a week (except national holidays)
• A lifetime companion
• The satisfaction of knowing you have saved a life!
