The American Society For The Prevention Of Cruelty To Animals
Thanks to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals the issues of animal neglect and abuse are being addressed. They have been helping animals with this mission since 1866. They were founded with one purpose; to help alleviate the injustices that humans inflict upon defenseless animals. Individuals and communities can do their part too by raising awareness for this cause and by reporting any abuses they witness.
In 1866, a man by the name of Henry Bergh thought that the work horses of New York needed his help. He was the founding father of the ASPCA, and more than likely when he began this great movement, he didn't comprehend that it would become an organization, which not only helped horses in the state of New York in 1866, but one that would continue to help all animals that face abuse, well into the 21st century.
Since 2001, the organization has focused solely on companion animals, as it was decided that these animals needed the most help. They believe that an incredible bond exists between companion dogs and cats, and humans. Thanks to the policies of the ASPCA, the world of domestic animals is a little better.
The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals has policies that focus on several groups of animals. Even though their main focus is on those of companionship, they also are worried about livestock, laboratory animals, entertainment animals and even wild animals. Companion animal polices include issues of boarding and vet care, yet information about service animals is available as well. The best way to view all of this information is to visit the website of the ASPCA at aspca.org or call them at (212) 876-7700.
Deciding to become a member of the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is one decision that many people should consider. This organization offers so many levels of help that the money or time that is given will not be wasted. The cops of the ASPCA have recently been placed in the spotlight thanks to the Animal Planet, and one can really see the good that their money does by watching this great program. Animals need us and we need them. Coexistence depends on abuse becoming nonexistent.
