TAKE ME HOME: ADORABLE FACES ARE WAITING AT THE FKSPCA

Dating in the Keys can be a drag, but thankfully there are plenty of animals waiting for their perfect adoption “match” at the Florida Keys SPCA. Keys Weekly is thrilled each week to showcase some “furever” friends that are ready, waiting and available for adoption at the organization’s Marathon campus – complete with their best qualities, preferences and turn-offs to ensure the best fit.

From cats and dogs to Guinea pigs, hamsters, rabbits, reptiles and birds, the perfect addition to your family is waiting for you at one of the SPCA’s two campuses, in Key West and Marathon. The SPCA’s knowledgeable staff will help with advice and care tips while working to ensure a good fit between each pet and its people. The SPCA’s Golden Paw program also provides special assistance with vet bills and medications for special-needs and older animals that require a little extra TLC.

See all the animals waiting for a home at fkspca.org. To contact the Marathon campus, call 305-743-4800 or visit the campus at 10550 Aviation Blvd.

Simon
2.5-year-old male guinea pig

Looking for: A fun family, and kids are a plus! I’m very social and love to be held. 

Turnoffs: Mean landlords! I was a returned adoption from my happy home when his landlord said no.

Whopper
3.5-year-old female domestic shorthair

Looking for: A home since I came in as a kitten in 2019. I’d like a quiet place with plenty of hiding spots, please!

Turnoffs: Kids. I know, I know, I just don’t want any human babies. They’re too fast and loud!

Abby (Golden Paw)
6.5-year-old female mixed breed

Looking for: A yard filled with iguanas to chase! 

Turnoffs: Some dogs. I get along with most, so if you have another dog, I’d like to meet them first.
