LA SPCA

Because of the Gulf Coast Oil Spill Fund, families are taking their pets to the Louisiana Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (LA/SPCA) because they simply cannot afford to care for them. If there was ever a time for families to keep their pets, it would be now because pets provide much-needed comfort. A grant of $15,000 from the Greater New Orleans Foundation’s Gulf Coast Oil Spill Fund will allow families to feed and treat their pets free of charge in an effort to encourage owners to keep their pets and to prevent companion animals from being abandoned.
