Onondaga County will provide the CNY SPCA with a $150,000 stabilization fund, County Executive Ryan McMahon announced Wednesday in Mattydale. The funding is intended to support sheltering, veterinary care, humane services, staffing and public safety work.
The CNY SPCA helps about 200 animals each day, including cats, dogs and other small animals, according to the source material. The announcement comes as Syracuse explores options for a city-run shelter. The organization received new leadership in February after a staff walkout earlier that month, when workers cited unsafe and unsanitary conditions.
