LARGO, FL — Those seeking a bouncing bunny or a feathered friend can adopt a "pocket pet" from the SPCA Tampa Bay for free through Friday, June 30. The SPCA Tampa Bay is waiving adoption fees for certain pocket pets including birds, rabbits, guinea pigs and rates. Adoption fees for pocket pets normally run from $10 to $30. Animals are available on a first-come, first-served basis, and potential adopters are encouraged to come early to the shelter. A carrier or housing that's appropriate for travel is required for adoption. SPCA Tampa Bay's staff and volunteers can assist families in finding a pet that's right for the family's lifestyle. The adoption team focuses on matching families and pets for long-term success. Past fee-waived adoption events have helped animals find new homes in only a few days, which frees resources for SPCA Tampa Bay to provide care and shelter for other animals in the community. SPCA Tampa Bay cares for more than 7,000 animals each year. For more information on SPCA Tampa Bay's pocket pets, and all of adoptable pets, click here.
