Thank you for visiting the SPCA of Hancock County! Founded in 1911, the SPCA of Hancock County, Maine, is a life-saving organization committed to providing shelter and care for abandoned, stray and surrendered animals. Since opening the doors of our expanded facility in Trenton in October 2010, our organization has found homes for thousands of dogs and cats. We are also focused on community outrea

ch and education on proper and humane animal care. Due to the pandemic and concern for the safety of our staff and volunteers, all visits to the shelter are by appointment only. Please contact us to schedule an appointment to adopt, surrender a pet or stray animal, or with any other requests. We are accepting donations of pet food items, pet supplies, and anything you might find on our Amazon Wish List. These can be left at our front door or by the Volunteer Entrance. These entrances are regularly checked by staff for any dropped-off donations. If you're interested in volunteering with us, we would love to meet you. We have a great need for volunteers to help with general house-cleaning tasks around the shelter, help with animal care of dogs and/or cats, assist with groundskeeping and maintenance, perform public outreach at events, collecting bottles and redeemables from the vendors that donate to us, and so much more. If you would like to fundraise or donate to the SPCA, you can do so online or by contacting [email protected] to discuss ways to collaborate. Thank YOU for being the heroes to our animals. We could not do this life-saving work without the donations of time, money, and support that each of you give to us.

We have an abundance of crates at the moment due to the generosity of our community members. We have stored what we can use, but we thought we would make the extras available to others. Keep your pets safe and secure with proper crate use. Stop by and see if we have the right fit. Available crates are out front of our main entry doors. First come, first serve!

Did you know that we have bottle redemption right on our campus? It is true! Dropping off your redeemable items with us under the tent to the left of our building is one very easy way you can help the dogs and cats that we work with every day.

Gust says "Thank you for the support" as it will help supply him with food and treats!
