many years of construction experience and is volunteering

New siding and doors installed.

The concrete to replace the first section of unsafe wall
has been poured!!
As renovations continued, we determined that we must replace a portion of the outside wall of the lower level of the building. The heavy equipment arrived and dug a large trench to gain access to the wall. This is a major undertaking but necessary to make the building safe and secure. Once the wall is replaced, this building will be structurally sound for many years to come.

WE DESPERATELY NEED DOG FOOD, CAT FOOD, AND KITTY LITTER.
ANY ASSISTANCE IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!!
Spot and his siblings were born at the SPCA on December 14, 2010. His mother was a purebred Min Pin who had been surrendered by her former owner because she was pregnant. Spot's mother had the sweetest disposition and was an absolutely awesome dog. The former owner had no ideas about the breed of the father. Obviously, Spot didn't get his mother's looks but does have her sweet disposition. Spot is a happy, playful young dog who is waiting for a forever home.
Blithe along with her mother and her littermates were left outside the SPCA when we were closed. Her mother had escaped from the box and the kittens were all too young to eat on their own. Thankfully Mom came back and was able to finish nursing her babies. Blithe has grown into a beautiful young cat with a sweet personality and is still waiting for her own forever home.
