BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) — The Buffalo Sabres are working with the SPCA of Erie County in an Adopt-A-Pet event.

The Sabres announced the collaboration on Friday, scheduling the event for Monday, Feb. 8 from 5 to 7 p.m., just before Valentine’s Day. The goal is to find a connection between loving families and a pet that will reciprocate those feelings.

Gina Browning, the director of public relations for Erie County’s SPCA, said sometimes animals need a little help getting exposure, and the Sabres are giving them that boost.

“The (Sabres) are scoring big for SPCA animals this Valentine’s Day with the goal of finding them forever love,” Browning said.

The first 50 families who adopt a pet will receive a pair of tickets to the Sabres game on Feb. 14 as a token of thanks.
