| Be Kind to Animals Week! (May 4-10) |
This week celebrates the special bond between humans and animals.
Animal shelters through the country observe this special week to raise
awareness about Being Kind to Animals and to educate people about the incredible role animals play in
our every day lives. This is the perfect time to celebrate not only our own pets, but to celebrate all the
animals that come into our lives and touch it in some way. Be Kind to Animals Week is a great time
to promote all the organizations dedicated to the welfare of animals and to encourage
everyone to get involved to make a difference. |
| National Dog Bite Prevention Week! (May 18-24) |
Did you know that over 4 million people are bitten by dogs each year and that
half the population that seeks medical attention for these bites are children?
Many dog bites can be prevented. Click here for some tips that may help you and your family avoid becoming part of the statistics. |

| Foster Cat/Kitten Program 2008 |
The Bucks County SPCA is expanding our foster cat and kitten program.
We are searching for more foster homes so that kittens under eight weeks (and sometimes
their moms, too) can be raised in a home environment rather than being raised in a shelter.
The overwhelming numbers of cats and kittens that come in throughout the spring and summer fill
the shelter to capacity. If you think you can provide a loving foster home
please click here for more information. |

Bolton!
 |
Bertie!
 |
|
Bolton is a 1.5 year old neutered and declawed male. He is friendly and a little shy. He is good here with
other cats and has not been around dogs. Bolton would be best in a home with older children who will give him time
to adjust to his new environment. he is litter box trained and tested negative for feline leukemia.
Bertie is a 6-8 year old, neutered Labrador Retriever mix. He is friendly and gets very excited to meet new
people. Despite his age, he is very active. He loves to play fetch with tennis balls and brings them back for people
to throw. He will sit when asked and people should wait until he is sitting before petting him. He likes chest
scratches and is well behaved for grooming. Bertie weighs in at 91 lbs and should be on a diet to lose a few pounds.
He, like most labs, is food-motivated and enjoys meal time and chewing on rawhides. Bertie gets along well with his
roommate, Bubbles but doesn’t like the active antics of other dogs. To help him practice good manners, people should
trade him treats for rawhides to keep giving things up to people positive. He would do well with a family whose children
are 6-8 years or older. Bertie enjoys interacting with people but may be too active to live with little kids.
If you would like more information on Bolton or Bertie, or other animals available for adoption, Browse our Kennel or call (215) 794-7425. |
