Our Featured Cats:


Sylvester - Tuxedo male



Sylvester was the much loved pet of a dear friend of the Southside SPCA who passed away August 12th, and it was her wish that we take Sylvester in. Although Sylvester is safe and loved at the shelter, it is our hope that he can once again be part of a family. Sylvester is around 6-7 years old and he gets along with other cats but he cannot go to a home with birds. No Tweeties, please! Please email info@southsidespca.org if you are interested in adopting this most deserving boy.



Chubby Checkers - Tuxedo Female


Chubby Checkers is a mild-mannered lady who... you guessed it: loves her food! Her favorite past-time is hanging over the cat trees and waiting for other cats to pass by...then she gives them a "love swat"...she thinks it's so fun! Such a funny and sweet girl! Checkers would love to have a home where she is treasured for the darling she is, and where her diet will be supervised... could that be your home? Please email info@southsidespca.org to meet and adopt

Our Featured Dog:


Ranger



Hugable, lovable, teddy bear of a dog!!! Ranger is all of these things and more! Ranger was transferred from an euthanizing animal control. The animal control officer contacted us and begged us to take this great dog...he saw something very special in this boy, and we agree! Ranger is a boy worth saving...he loves everyone, knows basic commands and wants to be with people. He never goes to the bathroom in his kennel and is very well behaved. He is about 4 years old and 55lbs. We think he will make a wonderful addition to some lucky home! Please email southsidespcadogs@yahoo.com for more information!

Just $25 will immunize a new adoptable pet, $40 will cover necessary testing, $100 will cover spay/neuter and immunizations. Southside SPCA is funded entirely by caring individuals like yourself and receives no support from State agencies, Federal agencies, or national rescue organizations. Your donations of cash or dog/cat food are gratefully accepted. We also accept donations for our Thrift Store in Keysville, Tail Waggers. Thrift Store proceeds go to the shelter to help the animals.

Donate a Bed We have chosen Kuranda dog beds for our animal shelter because they are so good for our dogs. We still don't have enough for all of our kennels. If you would like to donate a bed so another dog can sleep in proper comfort, please click here.

WHO WE ARE

Southside SPCA is a no-kill, non-profit animal shelter in south central Virginia, in operation since 1975, serving 12 rural counties , and run entirely on donations. We are located 60 miles west of Richmond. We provide love, humane care and shelter for abandoned animals and strive to provide them with loving, responsible homes. We do not use any extreme temperament tests, nor do we believe in euthanasia as a means to control the pet overpopulation problem. Our dogs are carefully evaluated, if there are any behavioral problems they are addressed prior to adoption.

Matching dogs/cats and families that are compatible is our priority. We promote spay/neuter programs and do our best to educate the public about this ever-present problem. No animal leaves our shelter's system unaltered. Please spay and neuter your pets. There are many programs that provide low cost spay/neuter. This is the only way to reduce the euthanasia of adoptable pets.

ADOPTING A FRIEND

We hold dog adoptions every Saturday from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm at PETsMART Carmia Way, Chesterfield (off Midlothian Turnpike). Adoptions at the shelter are by appointment only.
