How to Donate: SpcaLA Shelters Dangerously Low on Pet Food - NBC Southern California

The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Los Angeles is low on pet food.

The SpcaLA is urgently asking the community for donations on wet and dry pet food for dogs, cats, kittens, puppies, and rabbits.

"A full food bowl provides not only nutrition but also the first step toward recovery for neglected and abused animals," says Madeline Bernstein, spcaLA President. "It is our mission to nurture and protect them and we need the public's help to do that."

SpcaLA reportedly uses an average of 60,000 pounds of pet food a year. That feeds about 500 animals a day at spcaLA's three pet adoption locations, plus the animals at Long Beach Animal Care Services.
