OPERATION OF ANIMAL SHELTER
THE EAST BAY SPCA OPERATES TWO SHELTERS AND ADOPTION CENTERS FOR HOMELESS DOGS AND CATS. THESE PETS ARE TRANSFERRED FROM OVERCROWDED MUNICIPAL SHELTERS, SURRENDERED BY OWNERS WHO CAN NO LONGER CARE FOR THEM, OR BROUGHT INTO THE SHELTER AS STRAYS BY GOOD SAMARITANS. ALL INCOMING ANIMALS RECEIVE MEDICAL AND BEHAVIORAL EVALUATIONS; WE PROVIDE COMPREHENSIVE MEDICAL SUPPORT (SPAY/NEUTER, VACCINATIONS, SHORT AND LONG TERM TREATMENTS, SOFT TISSUE AND ORTHOPEDIC SURGERIES) AND BASIC "GOOD MANNERS" TRAINING. OUR SKILLED ADOPTION COUNSELORS WORK WITH THE PUBLIC TO BEST MATCH FAMILIES WITH PETS. ANIMALS THAT ARRIVE AT OUR SHELTERS TOO YOUNG, TOO WEAK OR TOO SICK GO INTO OUR FOSTER CARE PROGRAM FOR INDIVIDUAL CARE PRIOR TO ADOPTION.IN 2019, 3,515 ANIMALS WERE SHELTERED BY THE EAST BAY SPCA. 3,041 ANIMALS WERE ADOPTED. OF THE ANIMALS SHELTERED, 2,253 NEEDED MEDICAL CARE BEFORE THEY COULD BE ADOPTED. IN 2019, OUR FOSTER TEAM ACHIEVED A 100% SAVE RATE FOR ALL HEALTHY NEONATE KITTENS.
