We were asked to take in 4 baby kittens today from Spotsy. The Fredericksburg SPCA has a Pan-Luc outbreak. Spotsy Animal Shelter is apparently maxed out and would reportedly Euthanise. We were told that they were 4 weeks old. They are atually closer to 2 1/2 weeks. They need regular feeding every 3 - 4 hours for the next few days, and then fewer times per day as they get stronger. We can provide kitten formula, bottles, wet food, dry food (to soak in the formula), litter, boxes, and anything else you may need or want. If you are available to assist, please call / text Bill at (571) 946-0931.

We wanted to send a huge Shout-Out and A Massive Thank-You to Stepping With Leaders Pop Up Pantry for their extreme generosity. They have been able to provide a great deal of cat litter, dog food (wet and dry), plus cat food (wet and dry) to help the animals at the Stafford SPCA. In turn, we have been able to spread the love to Stafford County Animal Shelter, the Stafford SERVE food pantry, Petty Pawz Rescue, One By One Deathrow Dog Rescue Inc., as well as other rescues and managers of feral cat colonies. We are very grateful for their generosity and logistical support.

Free to a Good Home!!

Occasionally we receive supplies of doggy diapers and doggy "male wraps" for male pups that mark or are struggling with incontinence issues. We currently have a surplus, and (after offering them to fellow rescues), we are making them available to the public. If you are interested picking some up, please reply to this post, tell me what you would like, and when you would like to pick some up. We are generally available for donation drop and supply pick up from 10AM --> 7PM, 7 days a week. When the supplies are gone, the post will come down. If you have extra "p*e pads", we can always use those . Thanks - Bill

This grey tabby has been found on Windermere Drive, about 1/2 way between the Brooke Fire Department and Aquia Landing / Marlborough Point, in Northeast Stafford. It has been in the area for 3+ days, and is friendly, but a little skittish, and was very hungry. If you own this kitty, or think you may know who does, please contact Gail Stafford at the cell # posted. Please crosspost and share to get this kitty safely home. - B

!!! Please Stop Dumping Animals !!!

This afternoon, Monday 12/23/24, around Noon - 1PM, a lady dumped a beautiful Parakeet, in a cage, without any cover, in sub freezing temperatures, in front of our building. No calls, no voicemail, no email, no appointment, no note, no surrender form, nothing.

Parakeets like temps between 65 - 80 degrees. You can kill a small bird by leaving it outside in freezing temperatures. Staff quickly brought the bird in, set it up in the supply room, wrapped blankets around the cage and made sure the beautiful little bird warmed up quickly.

-- Update --

She is doing well. Eating and drinking. She has a beautiful song. When we played Parakeet songs from YouTube she got very animated and began singing back and looking for a playmate. Hope we can find an adopter with another Parakeet or similar size bird to play with. Fresh food and water. All nice and warm and tucked in for the night. @ 9:09PM.

-- Update --

We were able to do some Detective work, established the identity of the lady who dumped the bird, and the pet store that she worked at (I'm not even kidding). Store Mgmt has been contacted, and will deal with her directly. Information on the dump will be passed to Stafford County Animal Shelter and the Office of Stafford County Sheriff - David "DP" Decatur, Sheriff for any criminal referral.

If anyone is looking to add a beautiful Parakeet to their family, "Noelle" is now looking for a home. Applications can be found on our website www.staffordspca.org/adopt - we would love to see her in a loving home @ Christmas. We will be at the shelter tomorrow (Xmas Eve) from 9AM - 9PM. The adoption fee will be $1.00. Noelle will come with her cage, her supplies and her food. We're looking for an experienced bird owner to give Noelle a wonderful forever home, free from the fear of abandonment and neglect.

Merry Christmas to all. Especially to our furry and feathered friends. - B

Special "Shout Out" and Big Holiday "Thank You" to Kasper Mechanical for their VERY generous donation of TONS of treats and toys for the Pups at the Stafford SPCA this morning. The guys got to meet and love on the pups, and even take Mr. Maize for a walk around the property. The Frisbees and Tug-bees are a big hit too. These guys are all Rockstars and animal lovers.
