Deeply rooted in Santa Cruz, everything we do is powered by our community's compassion. As a 501(c)3 nonprofit, the Santa Cruz SPCA receives no government funding or assistance from national organizations like the ASPCA or HSUS. Our mission thrives through devoted volunteers who give thousands of hours annually, creating miracles for animals in need. Safe Harbor and Adoptions We welcome all dogs and cats who need extra care—those who might be overlooked elsewhere. From specialized medical treatments to behavioral training, our modern shelter prioritizes comfort, love, and individualized attention for each animal as we help them find their forever families. Pet Food Pantry When housing challenges and cost of living pressures threaten to separate families from their beloved pets, we step in. Our pet food pantry keeps animals with their families by providing free food and supplies, preventing heartbreaking surrenders and keeping pets where they belong—home. Humane Education Building a compassionate future starts with education. Through our dynamic curriculum, we're cultivating kindness and responsible pet ownership in youth and adults alike, creating lasting change for animals throughout our community. Support for Seniors Dr. Jean's Senior Friends program celebrates the beautiful bond between senior people and senior pets by waiving adoption fees for perfect matches. Every adoption includes vaccinations, spay/neuter, microchip, a free vet exam, and educational resources. We also provide financial support for preventative and extended veterinary care, ensuring these special companions stay together.
