Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, International
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, International -- www.spca.com, also referred to as the SPCA.com -- is a non-profit organization dedicated to preventing the abuse of animals. It was founded in Montreal, Canada and actively supports shelters and with the help of individual donors internationally. The mission of SPCA International is to raise awareness of the abuse of animals to a global level, to teach and foster good pet parenting policies, and to promote spay and neuter programs around the world with the goal of eradicating the need to euthanize healthy and adoptable companion animals of all ages. The SPCA accomplishes this mission through both internal and outreach programs, and by supporting shelters already working to achieve these goals. Some of the programs that achieve the mission: Foster Home Volunteers, Disaster Readiness Volunteers, Veterinary Student Exchange, and Shelter of the Week.
