Animals in need, we’re here to help!
Growing up in a household with different types of animals has given me the ability to care for things other than myself. We have housed anything from snakes to rabbits to cats to dogs. Growing up in this type of environment has made me very passionate about helping animals in need.
Currently we have two cats that we rescued from the shelters many years ago. During this time, I have grown a deep love for the animal shelters that rescue animals from euthanasia located in kill shelters. I have made it a point to go to the local Denton animal shelter weekly to play with the homeless cats and dogs, because each and everyone of them deserves love and attention.
The non-profit I am passionate about is the SPCA. This organization provides care and loving homes to animals in need. They also provide a place for spaying and neutering for cats and dogs to limit the spread of homeless animals.
Not only do they provide care and love to animals, they also provide programs and services to educate the public about the animals they adopt. These programs are beneficial to those who are about to bring in a new family member to their household.
In 2010, the local SPCA of Texas rescued 857 animals and adopted out 5,408 animals to loving homes. Also in 2010, they spayed and neutered over 16,000 animals. They also educated over 13,000 people with their education services.
When these animals have no one to care or look out for them, the SPCA and other shelters are there to find them loving homes. No animal should ever live in fear of their owners or should ever be thrown out into the streets. I feel that with the SPCA, someone is there to look out for those who are abandoned and need someone to care for them.
