ct spca is closing

I'm sorry if this is the wrong place or if this has been posted before but I just found out. Lots of cats and dogs looking for homes before may. Or they will get euthanized. If you are looking for a new furry friend there's never been a better time than now.

Edit- After doing more research it seems euthanasia is the last resort sorry if my post was misleading

Makes sense. CT has a massive pet shortage. Most shelters are empty/have very quick turn around with exception to animals that are problematic that they probably just shouldn’t be adopted out.

That's reassuring thanks! The first time I checked the shelters website it was at like 22 dogs now it's down to 18 so at this rate hopefully they all find a home!(and the cats too obvi)

How do you know they will be euthanized? Wouldn't they just go to the humane society (no kill) or one of the many other no-kill animal rescues in the state?

The article I read said they will be euthanized if they don't get adopted, but I can't seem to find it now. The article I just read said volunteers are trying to rehome them to another shelter/sanctuary, and euthanasia is a last resort. Seems like they're getting a lot of calls now, so hopefully everything will work out sorry for the misinformation.

Thanks for posting the link id give u my free award if reddit didnt get rid of them. I just felt helpless as my house is already full of rescues/strays so I wanted to help spread the word atleast. But your original comment made me do more research and now I can rest easy knowing they're doing everything they can to rehome the poor animals. So thank you for that!
