ANIMAL ACTIVIST

Across the country, there is an epidemic regarding pet overpopulation. Over crowding in these shelters has caused millions of innocent animals to be euthanized every year.  In some cases, shelters try to accommodate at 200% capacity just to ensure the animals safety. Stray animals face many dangers on a daily basis, especially ones abandoned by their own families. They could get hit by cars, carry deadly diseases, or end up in the wrong hands of the wrong people. 

Just like the ASPCA and other animal rights organizations, we strive to protect the rights and safety of ALL animals. But we do need your help! We can't fight the battle against animal cruelty by ourselves. 

If you donate to our cause,we can post a picture of your pet on our website. If you do not have a pet, we accept all kinds of donations - food, toys, blankets, sheets, water/food bowls. Any single item will help an animal in need. 

You can e-mail the pictures at:    animals912@comcast.net

Mr. Tubman, the Harriet Tubman Safe House Mascot and Home Cat

Mr. Tubman is a cat we rescued on March 15, 2011 and gave him that name.  As you see he is living a good life at 700 Buttonwood Street.  He is an onory little fellow and does not like to be held but comes running when it is time to eat.  At night time he is at the door ready to go out and roam, he comes back in the morning ready for a snack and sleep.

 Earl W. Woodlen,Jr., partners with the SPCA and donates his time to help feed the animals.  He brings his own food for the animals at times as well.  This helps the SPCA with the feeding of all the animals.

Mr. Woodlen is contacted all the time about animals people do not want or can no longer care for.  If there is room at the SPCA they will allow Mr. Woodlen to pick up the animals and bring them there to be taken care of and hopefully adopted.

He also get calls to just come and capture an animal that is being a nuisance and release it in a secluded area for wild life.
We are in need of donations for cages of all sizes and for the feeding of the animals at HTSH and to help care for the animals that come and go.

 This is a pig we had to rescue from someone's who had it at their house.  I took it to the ASPCA and they are looking for a farm to take him to.  We just don't help just help dogs and cats but any animals.

This picture is of a friend my mine who volunteers at the ASPCA.  I am a volunteer there as well, now we need some help and donations are always appreciated.
