“Cleaning Up” Before the World Cup

Over 200 Animals Seized From Cruelty – Help Animals Now!

Officers found 25 dogs, 150 rats, and 130 snakes; most confined to cages and living in their own feces and urine. Air quality in the residence was a danger to both humans and animals due to high ammonia content caused by large amounts of urine and feces. Conditions inside the residence were so deplorable that local building officials condemned the house.

Feral Cats, Learning About Them and How to Help

How did the feral cats get out there in the first place? Who feeds them?

Florida Keys SPCA; The “Key” to Rebuilding

Their shelter was once home to several, mature trees providing shade to the play yards and outdoor kennels filled their back property. However, once Hurricane Irma blew through they were left with all of their shade trees completely uprooted and their kennels, play yards and perimeter fencing all destroyed by these uprooted trees. Without even as much as a perimeter fence, they couldn’t utilize any of their space and dogs couldn’t get outside to release their energy. This may not seem like a big deal, however, if a dog isn’t able to go outside to release their energy, they will become loud and overactive inside their kennels and less likely to be adopted. This is why this build was so important. We had to give these dogs a place to exercise so they would become more adoptable in the eyes of future adopters.

The House that Built Me – Pt. 1

Their idea was to get an adoption center started that would allow animal rescues from all over the area to hold adoption events. What better way to bring pet-friendly people to the center than to put a dog park right behind it!
