Since 1867, the SPCA Serving Erie County has been a beacon of hope for animals in need. As the second-oldest humane society in the country, we've witnessed the evolving relationship between humans and animals, adapting our efforts to protect and care for them.
Our unwavering commitment to animal welfare has spanned over a century, from safeguarding working horses on the Erie Canal to rescuing countless dogs, cats, and wildlife in need. We've been there for the neglected, abused, abandoned, and injured, offering shelter, medical care, and the chance to find loving homes.
Our promise to transform the lives of animals in Erie County and beyond is fulfilled through:
We are a community-supported organization powered by the generosity of animal lovers who share our vision for a more humane community. Join us in our mission by donating, volunteering, or adopting! Together, we can create a brighter future for all animals!
The mission of the SPCA Serving Erie County is to create a more humane community through education; rescuing, protecting, and enhancing the lives of animals; and nurturing the bond between animals and people.
