An increase in unwanted animal numbers is putting pressure on SPCA centres
5 February 2021
During December and January there was an increase of 450 animals above numbers for the same time the previous year.
Teh SPCA's currently caring for close to four thousand animals around the country.
Chief Executive, Andrea Midgen, says the number of animals being looked after is always high over summer, but the past two months have been challenging.
She says the only way to bring the figures down is to increase the number of animals being desexed.
