Janie girl passed quietly at home this very sad Thanksgiving morning. We are crushed but grateful for her unconditional love. Our little buddy is back with Gma Sue and Jaxie, doing what she loves — running the pasture and being a farm girl. We are going to miss you so much baby Jane 💔

DC got a new animal shelter building and it looks awesome but Brandywine Valley SPCA needs help with the transition! All adoption fees are waived through Sunday!! Please help contribute to the happy times ahead for these pets in need!

Today is National Black Cat Day! Consider adopting one! They are often overlooked in shelters and euthanized at a higher rate. They do not bring bad luck! I had Zero for a long time and have had lots of luck in my life! I love and miss you so much ZZ!! 🐈‍⬛🖤 #nationalblackcatday

We demonstrate that H5N1 bird flu can move very quickly through animals in a home, catching families off guard and posing an unexpected spillover risk.

Tiny cleaned up a record 22 plastic water bottles littered around the local track Sunday morning. She loves doing it but people should not be littering like this! What is going on?

My 4 main tips for the general public regarding #birdflu, which has a very high case fatality rate in cats. If you feed your pet contaminated raw meat or milk, they will likely die. Not exaggerating, just giving it to you straight.
