ASPCA <OfficialASPCA>


You’ve probably heard of the ASPCA—the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals—since we were the first humane society in North America and are one of the largest in the world today. Our founder, Henry Bergh, started the ASPCA in 1866 “to provide effective means for the prevention of cruelty to animals throughout the United States.” You can visit our website at www.aspca.org to find out about all the things we do to help animals.

Happy Earth Day!!
The green scene in 2008 has gone beyond gardens—it now includes litter boxes and doggie treats. This Earth Day, you don’t need a green thumb to help the planet. If you have an animal companion who eats, sleeps, plays and poops, you’ve got plenty of opportunities to cut down on waste, raise your pet’s quality of life and color your corner of the world green.

Top Ten Ways to Go Green for Pets

Spring Cleaning
Empty out the dark corners of your closets, basement and attic, but before throwing your dusty treasures away, call your local shelters and ask if they need old towels, bedding, leashes, litter boxes and pet toys. They may even be looking for unused printers and computer monitors.

Water Works
Give your pet filtered tap water instead of bottled to drink. If you must use bottled, be sure to recycle.

The Power of Poop
Scoop dog poop with biodegradable bags instead of plastic bags from the grocery store. If you’re a suburbanite (or an urbanite with a lawn), do some research on doggie septic systems—they help keep your lawn free of smelly surprises and break waste down into a liquid the ground can absorb. And kitty parents, go for eco-friendly cat litters, avoiding brands with mined minerals.

Green Grooming
Use earth-friendly pet shampoos and grooming products whenever possible.

Garden of Delights
If you have space, consider growing your own garden for your fruit- and veggie- loving reptiles and small mammals. Before using insecticides, research mulching and other gardening practices that can help reduce the amount of insecticides and herbicides you might need.

Spot On
Should your furry love leave a little dribble (or more) on the carpeting or floor, don’t reach for the bleach. Use vinegar instead. This environment-friendly liquid can act as an effective odor-remover and can kill mold and bacteria. Please keep in mind, though, that vinegar must be diluted correctly with water.

Cutting Back is Going Green
There are plenty of small ways to cut back on energy and materials.

· Instead of using a blow dryer to dry your freshly bathed pet, towel or air dry her.

· Walk your dog to the doggie park rather than driving there.

· Cut down on paper products—clean up with rags or recycled paper towels.

· Put light and heating bulbs in your reptile and fish habitats on timers.

Put Your Foot Down
Don't wear shoes in the house. They bring extra pesticides, fungicides and dirt inside—your pets are exposed enough when licking their paws after walking outside on treated surfaces. (Of course, you should wipe all paws before letting them back into the house!)

Green Goodies
Consider making your own healthy dog biscuits and storing them in reusable containers. If you purchase store-bought treats, buy them in cardboard packaging and be sure to recycle.

Bulk Up
Buy pet supplies in bulk or the largest available size. You’ll make fewer trips to the store and cut down on packaging to discard of.

Time to Talk Puppy Mills!
This is a great time for an interactive discussion on puppy mills. Not only is April Prevention of Cruelty to Animals month, but Oprah's recent episode on puppy mills gave them much needed exposure. This is a topic on everyone's minds, and it couldn't be more important.

Join us Friday, April 18, from noon to 2:00 P.M. EST, to talk puppy mills with Bob Baker, ASPCA Investigator, ASPCA Anti-Cruelty Initiatives. He is a key player in our ongoing efforts to combat the cruelties of puppy mills and large-scale commercial breeding operations. The chat will take place on the ASPCA Online Community.

What kind of a dog should you own?

Go to What kind of a dog should you own?

What kind of a dog should you own?

My result is: Toy Breed

You need a dog that you can put in your car and take with you where ever you go! You don't want to take him for long walks or play with him in the park... instead you'd rather he stay in your house all day and snuggle and give you kisses when you get home for the night! Some breeds include Pomeranian, Yorkie, and some types of Poodles.

Hi, I just wanted to say that I love what your doing and to fight animal abuse, I wanted to make a video about how horrible animal cruelty really is. I was wondering if I could use pictures and information from the ASPCA website and tell people about the amazing thing you guys do. Is that ok?

I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!! I plan on opening an animal rescue when I grow up and maybe even working for the ASPCA when I grow up. I'm so linking to you from my profile! On your website, can you put a section about opening a rescue and maybe some tips on it? I'm sure other people want to too!
