METHUEN, Mass. (WWLP) - The MSPCA at Nevins Farm is waiving adoptions fees for dozens of farm animals this weekend to free up space to help animals that are expected to come during the winter months. Thirty cats seek loving homes after being rescued from Massachusetts home The MSPCA states that the fees will be waived for ducks, chickens, goats, sheep's, and pigs on January 11th, and they hope to rehome over 50 animals during the one-day event. “The farm is pretty crowded right now, and it couldn’t be at a worse time,” explained Erika Tonnon, equine and farm animal placement coordinator at Nevins. “This time of year, we typically take in more farm animals through Law Enforcement investigations because it’s cold, and people run into issues with providing adequate shelter during inclement weather.” MSPCA-AngellMSPCA-AngellMSPCA-AngellMSPCA-Angell Some of the animals are remaining from a major law enforcement case last year, that included the farm taking in 49 goats, some of which were pregnant, from a property in Ayer back in April. Goats can be great pets even for those who are not experienced caretakers. “We don’t often waive fees for goats because they’re generally adopted pretty quickly, but sometimes animals get stuck, so we’re hoping this adoptathon helps shine the light on their need for a new home!” The adoptathon is set to take place from 10:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. on Saturday. Farm birds will be able to go home on the same day, regardless of where the adopters live. “Farm animal adoptions are different than those for traditional pets, like dogs and cats,” expounded Tonnon. “Some require additional testing for interstate adoptions, so goats, sheep, and pigs can go to homes in Massachusetts on the same day, but we’ll need to schedule pick-ups for out-of-state adopters.” Local News Headlines Critical drought tag dropped in three Massachusetts regions Santa Ana winds continue to fuel Los Angeles wildfires Farm animals available for free adoption at Nevins Farm this weekend La Niña has officially started: How does this impact Massachusetts?
