One stray animal prompts a plea for spaying and adoption
A public notice urges responsibility for stray animals in Mercer County. It warns that one unspayed animal can lead to a litter of eight or more, spreading disease and hunger while suffering. The Mercer County Animal Shelter says it aims to place animals in good homes and spay or neuter them. Adoption offered includes Duchess the purebred Labrador, Pete the shepherd mix, Prissy the small house dog, Himalayan cats, and a Calico cat.
