TAKE ME HOME: FIND A HALLOWEEN ‘MATCH’ AT THE FLORIDA KEYS SPCA

Keys Weekly is thrilled each week to showcase some “furever” friends that are ready, waiting and available for their perfect adoption “match” at the Florida Keys SPCA’s Marathon campus – complete with their best qualities, preferences and turnoffs to ensure the best fit.

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.

On Friday, Nov. 3, the FKSPCA will host a Fete en Blanc dinner to benefit the Marathon shelter animals. Bring a dish to share and dress all in white for an evening of dining, music and dancing from 6 to 8 p.m. at an undisclosed Marathon location (venue will be announced to ticket holders the day of the event). The evening will include a DJ, cash bar and 50/50 raffle. Purchase tickets for $20 per person at FKSPCA.org.
