PENINSULA SOCIETY FOR THE PREVEN TION OF CRUELTY TO ANIMALS INC

The mission of the Peninsula SPCA is to find loving homes for every animal in our care, and to advocate for the humane treatment of all animals in our community. The Peninsula SPCA remains committed to an adoption-guarantee (no-kill) model, focusing on our three core areas: PSPCA Adoption Center, PSPCA’s Humane Education Learning Center and Barnyard, and PSPCA’s Veterinary Clinic for Preventive Care. 1)Adoption Services: We provide care and shelter annually for nearly 1,000 homeless pets as they await their new forever families. This includes food, medical care, training and shelter. All adopted animals leave the shelter spayed or neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated. 2) Humane Education: Our Humane Education Learning Center combines service learning and animal welfare with STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) concepts. Through hands-on programs and design challenges, students Pre-K through eighth grade are engaged in essential humane education experiences that can only be accomplished in the PSPCA’s one-of-a-kind informal education classroom setting. 3) Affordable Veterinary Care: In an effort to offer resources that help keep Companion animals healthy and at home with their owners, PSPCA operates an affordable, preventative healthcare clinic that offers low-cost vaccinations, parasite control, micro-chipping and spay/neuter services. In the past year, the PSPCA clinic has administered vaccinations to over 1,000 pets and focused on our efforts to prevent pet overpopulation by performing more than 500 spay/neuter surgeries.
