Feline Frenzy — 2010

July 2nd 2010 — The MSPCA is calling on the public to come and adopt a cat during this special promotional weekend on July 10th and 11th.

“The idea behind ‘Feline Frenzy-2010’ is that the MSPCA will absorb part of the adoption fees for cats that are 1 year and older. Included in the adoption fees are spay/neutering, basic vaccines, de-worming, micro-chipping and a health guarantee.

The MSPCA has hundreds of amazing cats that need homes and many more coming into the shelter on a daily basis, and we are hoping to encourage people that want to adopt a cat, to come and do so now.” said Alanna Devine, Director of Animal Welfare at the Montreal SPCA.

During “Feline frenzy weekend” the same adoption screening processes will apply, but this is an extra incentive to encourage adoption.

The regular adoption fee of 125$ will be reduced to :

60$ for cats between 1-4 years old

40$ for cats over 4.

People who adopt a second cat will be given a further reduced rate, 30$ or 20$ depending on the cat’s age.

The idea is simply that the Montreal SPCA is absorbing part of the regular adoption costs (which cover the services included in an adoption) in order to promote the adoption of cats during this time” stated Devine.

The MSPCA is reminding people that older cats can make wonderful companions and are encouraging the public to come and adopt a cat in need.

Adoption hours are 12 pm to 8 pm Monday through Friday and 11 am to 5 pm on Saturday and Sunday.
