The Rockingham-Harrisonburg SPCA is providing some discounts in an effort to find homes for pets in the Valley.
The organization cut its adoption fee in half this past weekend and for some animals, the fee has been waived entirely. It's all part of a spring national adoption weekend.
The discounts are available at PetSmart located in the Market Square East Shopping Center in Harrisonburg and the SPCA's main office.
"We're getting into kitten season right now. And it would be a really good time for us to find homes for all of our adult cats, so we have space for the little ones coming in. And for the dogs, we have so many great selections right now. It would be a great time to adopt. Warm summer months are coming up, and it's a great time to have a dog," says Sara Taylor, with the Rockingham-Harrisonburg SPCA.
The event runs Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and Sunday from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. at PetSmart and during regular hours at the SPCA.

Amen to that honey ~ And crating a pet is NOT Cruel ~ it is Safer for the Pet ~ so be a responsible Pet Owner and Protect your New Baby =*.*=
Make sure when you go to adopt a puppy that you remember to bring a crate. Dogs can act unpredictably I was transporting a 6 month old lab- border collie mix puppy that I had adopted and the dog got off of it's leash in the back seat-Got into the passenger side and then attacked me numerous times while I was driving. What a mess. I was able to control the car. The bites were on the arms-luckily not on my face. This was a nice dog that had been living with children. Apparently when we passed by some cows it got scared aggressive. Lesson- Dogs can act in an unpredictable manner and when transporting a dog -even if you know the animal, keep it in a crate
