For The First Time In 47 Years, This Animal Shelter Is Completely Empty!

This Christmas, a heartwarming miracle graced a Pennsylvania animal shelter, as the Adams County Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) shared delightful news. Breaking a nearly 50-year tradition, their kennels stood empty, a testament to the community’s overwhelming support. With 94 animals finding loving homes since November and an additional 26 lost pets joyfully reunited with their owners, the Adams County SPCA expressed gratitude on Facebook. The post highlighted the dedicated efforts of staff and volunteers, celebrating an exceptional year with 598 adoptions and 125 stray reunions. In their words, ‘This is the first time in 47 YEARS that the Adams County SPCA is empty, especially at Christmas — a true miracle!’

These once-sheltered pets have found their bliss in forever homes! With the animal shelter now empty, the Adams County SPCA continues to connect with former residents through heartwarming Facebook posts titled ‘Happy Tails.’ These delightful stories showcase the joy of families who have adopted cats and dogs, accompanied by some of the most adorable photos. Take Buttons, for instance, whose arrival in his new home was celebrated with a festive snapshot of him and his sister donning holiday sweaters. The Adams County SPCA shares these tales of happily-ever-afters, adding a touch of warmth to social media.
