Our
Mission
Our mission is to promote the well-being of animals
and responsible human-animal relationships.
Stray
Pets in Need of MA, Inc. was formed in 1991 to promote the well-being
of animals and responsible
human/animal relationships. Each year over 400 animals are placed
in new, carefully selected adoptive homes.
|
Volunteers
ALL!
|
We
could not have provided as many caring homes without first acknowledging
the tremendous work of our volunteers. As an all-volunteer non-profit
agency, our volunteers devote countless hours to providing foster
care, direct care at our transitional shelters, adoption counseling
at our two adoption sites, and the volunteers who man the phones,
edit the newsletter, The Wanderer, update our webpages and
provide administrative support. We thank our volunteers who developed
two films on SPIN's adoption policies and programs. |

Special
story about
MACY MERIDIAN,
who was rescued by SPIN.
|
Our
adopting families opened their hearts and
homes
to animals that were strays,
injured, abused or surrendered to provide
a chance for a better life. These are true heroes-people
who open their homes, lives
and hearts to animals with often unknown pasts and even some with
special needs who may have medically unstable futures. |

About
our Adopted
Pets

We
also thank our donors who have responded to funding efforts to relocate
our Natick transition shelter. Our donors were very generous in
adding to our growing new shelter fund so that we will get closer
to our dream of expanded space in the Metrowest area. Donors also
sponsored individual cats
and litters providing for food, litter, veterinary care, vaccinations
and medications.
We
continue to have an active spay/neuter program-all adopted animals
leaving SPIN are spayed/neutered. We will not contribute
to the pet overpopulation problem. SPIN continues
to remain committed to the need for animal education and participates
in many community events.
