Help Care For Our Pets While They Wait for a Home
Rockingham Harrisonburg SPCA is extremely appreciative when community members donate in-kind items that help our team keep our pets happy and healthy while they await adoption. We are always grateful for donations that provide good nutrition, clean environments, and enriching experiences for the animals in our care. Here are some examples of what items the RHSPCA can use:
For Cats
- Hill’s Science Diet Cat and Kitten Food
- Small treats
- Pill pockets
- Stuffed mice
- Jingle balls
- Wand toys
- Small blankets (like a fleece throw)
- Litter
For Dogs
- Hill’s Science Diet Dog and Puppy Food
- Hill’s Science Diet Ground or paté-style canned dog food
- Small or breakable treats for training
- Tough toys such as Kongs, Nylabones, etc.
- Martingale collars in sizes medium and large (nylon or cloth only please, no leather)
- Leashes
- Pill pockets
- Small blankets (like a fleece throw)
- Puzzle feeders
- Frisbees
- Large wire or airline crates
For Our Clinic
- Exam gloves of all sizes, latex-free & powder-free
- Gauze, cotton balls, cotton swabs
- Cat & dog nail clippers
- 10-second digital thermometers
- Triple antibiotic ointment
- Band-aids (for people)
- Bleach
- Laundry detergent
- Toilet paper
- Paper towels
- Dawn dish soap
- Extra-thick trash bags
Unusable Items
- Lysol, Pine-sol, or any other -Sol cleaning products (these are toxic to cats)
- Pillows or blankets with cotton/feather stuffing (these get destroyed easily and could be ingested)
- Pillow cases, bed sheets, or t-shirts (too thin)
- Carpet remnants, bathroom mats, or patio mats (we cannot sufficiently sanitize these items)
Please note, any food donated that is not Hills Science Diet will be donated to Anicira’s local pet food pantry to help keep pets in their homes and out of the shelter. While we greatly appreciate the thought, we like to keep animals housed in the shelter on the same diet to reduce GI problems and help us better identify animals with potential medical issues.
