Small animals you can adopt in the Tri-Cities

Small animals you can adopt in the Tri-Cities.
Rabbits and guinea pigs are looking for forever homes, because best friends come in all shapes and sizes.
Dogs and cats are wonderful companions and adoptions certainly spiked during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Today the BC SPCA is unveiling a new campaign in hopes of showing some love for smaller animals in need of care that may get overlooked by potential adopters, and some are available in the Tri-Cities.
The “Little Creatures, Big Hearts” initiative — running from May 16 to 31 — is being presented as a ‘pay-as-you-can’ promotion to highlight some of the animals like rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, birds and reptiles.

SPCA spokesperson Lorie Chortyk says these creatures can create strong bonds with their guardians, but it is important that adopters understand their specific care and welfare needs.
“We have many resources on our BC SPCA website to help guardians understand how to help their pint-sized pets live their best life, and our staff and volunteers are always happy to help with information and advice.”

Cats, kittens, dogs, puppies, horses and other farm animals are not part of the two-week campaign.
