🐾 Our SPCA Inspectors Are a Voice for the Voiceless 🐾
Every day, SPCA Inspectors work tirelessly to protect animals that may have no one else to speak up for them. They investigate reports of animal cruelty, neglect and abuse, rescue animals from dangerous situations, educate owners and, where necessary, take action to ensure that animals receive the protection they deserve.
Animal cruelty can take many forms and should be reported when you see:
• An animal being beaten, deliberately injured or abused.
• An animal suffering from untreated injuries or illness.
• An animal that is severely underfed or without access to clean drinking water.
• Animals being kept in filthy, unsuitable or dangerous conditions.
• An animal without adequate shelter or protection from extreme weather.
• An animal that has been abandoned or deliberately neglected.
• Animals being used for illegal activities, including dog fighting.
• An animal being chained or confined for prolonged periods in unsuitable conditions.
• Any situation where an animal's basic needs, care and wellbeing are being neglected.
•
Your report could be the difference between continued suffering and a second chance at life. If you see something that concerns you, please report it to your local SPCA. You may be the only person willing to speak up for an animal that cannot speak for itself.
We also understand that people may be afraid to report cruelty because they are concerned that the person or business being reported will discover who made the complaint. Please be assured that the details and identity of those reporting animal cruelty are treated confidentially and are not simply given to the person or company being investigated.
🐾 Please don't turn away. Don't assume someone else will report it. Speak up, because every animal deserves to be safe, cared for and protected.
