Gulf Coast Refugees:
In need of your support
Sixty dogs and 25 cats arrived from the flood-soaked Gulf Coast on September 28 adding to the original 26 that arrived earlier in September. Over the next few months we're expecting a steady stream of additional animals.
Every effort will be made to reunite these four-legged victims with their families; the rest we'll place with loving foster-to-adopt homes. Foster parents should be willing to care for an orphaned pet for three to four months, and if the owner is never found, provide a permanent home.
Stranded for days surrounded by contaminated water, many of the animals arrived with serious medical conditions (including heartworm, parasites and open wounds). Won't you please consider making a contribution toward the care of these four-legged hurricane victims? Many of the animals require extensive veterinary care, medicines and dietary supplements. Every donation makes a difference.
 We Need Help With:
Financial donations to our Animal Relief Fund (the best way to assist us in purchasing medications, care and special veterinary services)
Gently used blankets and towels
Pet carriers/crates
Dog and cat beds
Kong toys for dogs
Peanut butter
Treats (for dogs and cats)
Stainless steel food bowls (flat bottom)
Laundry detergent
Dawn soap
Cat litter (unscented clay type only - no clumping litter, please)
Grooming items
Please bring donations of supplies directly to the Sacramento SPCA during our open hours. Financial donations can be made online, in person, or by calling (916) 383-7387, ext. 9103. For information on becoming a volunteer foster home, please call (916) 383-7387, ext. 9108.
The Sacramento SPCA is not a government agency and depends on the kindness and generosity of supporters to make a difference in the lives of homeless animals. Financial contributions to the Sacramento SPCA, a tax-exempt organization, are deductible.
Thank you so much for your support!
