| What is an open admission animal shelter?The Chenango County SPCA welcomes companion animals in need. We do not turn animals away from our doors. This belief makes us what is considered an "open door" or "open admission" animal shelter.
|
| What is a "no-kill" animal shelter?We feel a more appropriate name for organizations such as this are "limited admission". They restrict the number of animals they take in. They may turn away those that arenīt healthy or behaviorally sound.
The Chenango County SPCA is committed to providing our community with an open door policy and will not limit our admissions of animals.
