Gander and Area SPCA Rehabilitate. Rehome. Repeat. It's what we do! You may prefer an annoyingly cuddly cat or maybe you enjoy a cranky one?

🐾Welcome to the page for the Gander and Area SPCA!🐾

We are an animal shelter located in Central Newfoundland helping homeless cats, dogs, and small animals find their forever homes💙

Rescue. The goal of this page is to provide you with insight into the personalities of the animals available for adoption at the Gander and Area SPCA. It can be a little daunting making the plunge into commi

tting to loving and taking care of an animal for the rest of his or her life. Perhaps you want an intelligent dog or maybe you prefer one who has more cuteness than brains? To each their own and we are here to help you find your perfect fit! We encourage you to share the pictures/post/videos with your friends and family and help us find loving homes for some of the best animals this world has to offer. If you have visited the shelter and have your own story to tell about one of the animals, feel free to post about it!

Does anybody recognize this calico female cat that was trapped in the Traytown area along with her litter of kittens? If you know who may own her, please call the shelter at 709-651-3002.

A big thank you to the wonderful people who were caring for her and brought mom and kittens into our care❤️

❗In need of kitten dry food❗

We had a group of 5 gorgeous stray kittens (plus mama) come in this morning and used up the very last of our kitten dry food filling their bellies🤯

If you're out and about today doing some shopping, we would greatly appreciate it if you grabbed a bag of kitten dry food for our shelter. We will graciously accept donations at our shelter at 36 McCurdy Drive😁

AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION - BONDED PAIR

For those of you who have been searching for a small-medium dog, look no further - the Gander and Area SPCA has TWO!😲 Teddi (black and white) and patches (tan, white, and black) are a bonded pair searching for their forever home together. It's a package deal with these two cuties, they MUST be adopted together!

About Teddi and Patches:
Teddi and Patches are a mother-daughter duo (Teddi is Patches' mom) that were transferred to our shelter from our friends at the HVGB SPCA. Both of these girls have been spayed, vaccinated, dewormed, and recently groomed. Aside from needing to lose a few excess pounds, these girls are in picture perfect health! Teddi is 6 years old and Patches is 5 years old, with plenty of years left to spend with their furever family. Teddi is larger in stature than Patches, however both pups are small/medium sized.

These girls are total lap dogs, they beg our shelter staff to jump up into our laps - a home where they can be loved on and treated like royalty is a must❤️.

Teddi and Patches do AMAZING with the cats here at the shelter, they do not bother any of the cats and coexist perfectly with them, so they are approved to go to a home with dog-savvy cats😸👍. They do not enjoy the company of other dogs so must go to a home with no other dogs🐶👎.

Open your heart and home to this bonded pair and get ready for a lifetime of love and snuggles!

Interested in adopting this adorable pair? Start your adoption journey by visiting our website and filling out our adoption application by clicking here: http://www.ganderandareaspca.com/adoption-application.html

Please note: Our shelter staff are often busy keeping our shelter animals clean and happy, so Facebook comments and messages are not always monitored. If you have any questions, call our shelter at 709-651-3002 during office hours (9AM-12PM and 1PM-4PM) to speak with a staff member.

These 3 girls are all still waiting for their forever homes and we have no idea why they are still here! We hope they will not have to grow up in the shelter any longer than they already have! 💔

Our visiting hours are from 10AM-12PM & 1-3PM daily if you would like to stop by and fall in love with these sweet little kittens (and potentially adopt one or two!)

Our adoption application can be found here for anyone interested in adopting:

🐈$5 Friday🐈

This $5 Friday, our shelter animals need your help!

This summer has been a difficult month on our shelter in terms of vet bills. We currently owe over $5,000 in vet bills and have been trying to pay this off bit by bit, however every time we seem to get ahead (thanks to the hard work of of fundraising team - you guys are the BEST), we have an animal (like our feline friend Hendrix pictured here) come into our care and require extensive veterinary care. Hendrix has been making excellent progress and we were able to have him neutered this past Tuesday thanks to the wonderful $500 donation we received from Donna MacIntyre to cover his surgery.

Unfortunately, we have MANY more animals in our care awaiting their spay/neuter surgeries and our vet bill just keeps rising😞

We are humbly asking for your support to help us pay off our $5,000 vet bill so that we can continue to provide care to animals just like Hendrix.

How to donate:
Donations can be made via emt to [email protected] or in person at 36 McCurdy Drive during office hours (9AM-12PM and 1PM-4PM) so that we can thank you in person🤍

🛋️👗👜🏸Yard sale items - We are looking for donations of new or gently used items for an upcoming yard sale we are organizing. Our yard sales are always a great summer fundraiser that helps us raise money for our shelter as we go into the Fall Season.

Here's the update we've been waiting for!!
13/08/2024

Here's the update we've been waiting for!!

Excuse me! Excuse me!! You need to admire me now. Ignore the other dogs, I'm here now.

All the other dogs and my staff LOVE me. But of course, that's because I am very lovable.

I'm a 6-month-old female beagle mix and you might notice a bit of an accent when I bark.... that's because I'm from the Gander SPCA in Newfoundland!!

Yes b'y, I'm a Come from Away!!!

I traveled all the way to New Brunswick to get me eyes checked AND to find a new family to love and admire me!

Yes, I have some eye issues and need to have drops but once you gaze into my gorgeous eyes, you will forget all about drops.

My staff is teaching me commands, but I call them tricks. I know I have to SIT to get treats, and I love DOWN! PAW has me a bit confused, is that one paw? both paws? right paw? left paw? Too much detail for me.

Well, I'm going on and on about me. What about you?
Do you like going for walks?
Me too!!
Do you like snacks? Me too!!
Do you like to play with toys?
Me too!
Do you like going for drives? Me too!!

Wow! It sounds like we're made for each other. Come meet me and we can go for a walk and get to know each other.

Call my staff at 506-459-1555 and ask to speak to the supervisor on duty! They will set up a meet for us!

I'm so excited I think I'm going to dance!

Love, Darci

Sending out our heartfelt condolences to the loved ones of Leonie Hollett, a remarkable woman who lived a fulfilling life of 101 years. Leonie had a deep affection for animals and dedicated herself to their care. In honor of her memory and love for animals, Leonie generously bequeathed $2000 to our shelter. We are grateful for the thoughtful gesture and extend our appreciation to Glennis for ensuring her aunt's wishes were carried out.

Hi there! I am Mya, a 4-year-old girl who has been vaccinated, flea treated, and dewormed. I am a tranquil and individualistic girl who takes pleasure in a good belly rub from those I trust. I am not bothered by other cats as long as they respect my boundaries.

Acorn, Apricot and Apple are three female kittens who have been waiting for 5 weeks to find their perfect home. These babies are tested negative for FeLV and FIV and have received their first vaccinations deworming and flea treatment. Super spunky and playful they would do well in most any home where they are treated with kindness and respect.

Hey! I'm still here, waiting patiently for my forever home. My name is Muppet, I'm a 3 year old, neutered male who has been tested negative for FeLV and FIV and I have received my first vaccinations, deworming and flea treatment. I was quite the michevious boy when I first arrived here 99 days ago, but I have since figured out the staff here at the shelter are pretty darn friendly. I've chilled out big time and even get along with the annoying girl cats, (I call them "The Muppet fan club") that I share the office area with. How about dropping by to say hi and maybe even adopt me!?
