SPCA Weekly Newsletter



ADORABLE DOG SPOTLIGHT....JORDAN
Meet Jordan. He is approximately nine months old and weighs 13.5 kilos. He is a very sweet tempered Labrador mix.

An ideal sporting and family dog, the Labrador retriever thrives as part of an active family. A double-coated breed which sheds seasonally, regular grooming keeps his coat at its water-resistant best. Because of his even temperament and trainability millions own a Labrador retriever as a pet. He’s a perfect pal for romps at the playa!

ADORABLE CAT SPOTLIGHT...SERAFINA
We have a number of young adult cats available for adoption. Serafina is a wonderful example who deserves a loving home.
There are a number of advantages when adopting a young adult cat versus a kitten. Although still playful, a young cat is less likely to get underfoot as a kitten. They are healthy, having been spayed/neutered and vaccinated. At this age they are housebroken, i.e. litter trained, socialized and less likely to get into “trouble”. Also importantly, you will know your cat’s basic personality, his likes and dislikes. (Believe me, he’ll let you know.) Bonding continues to be important, and your continued good care will strengthen your cat’s trust in you, which is vital to your relationship.
To see all the animals available for adoption, visit our website (www.spcapv.com or www.spcapv.blogspot.com). The SPCA PV will continue to host adoption events at Biblioteca Los Mangos every Saturday from 10am - 2pm. Biblioteca Los Mangos is located on Francisco Villa around the corner from Costco.

ADOPTION REPORT
We had an OK day at adoptions. Two dogs (Shiloh and Rolo) were adopted as well as three cats (Boots, Manchas and Ricky).
Special thanks to our volunteers who braved the hot/humid day: Peggy and her daughter Angelia, as well as our staunch supporters Luz and Marj.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
With summer upon us, we are experiencing a shortage of volunteers at the library each Saturday. Please consider helping us out. If we were able to get a number of volunteers, it could be possible to split the day into two shifts making it easier on everyone. We realize it is hot and humid out there but we need to give all our animals the opportunity to find their forever homes. If you could consider helping, even a few Saturdays a month, please contact us at spcapv@gmail.com.
