Here are SOME of the cats we currently have available for adoption.  You 
will probably notice that there have been VERY few adoptions over the 
last month.  We have been adopting kittens, but the adults have not been 
getting homes.  If you would like to foster one of these beautiful 
animals, please call 301-948-4266, or visit at the next open house.

Open House Schedule

The MCSPCA holds Open Houses every Saturday from 1:00 - 4:00 in the 
afternoon.

A little about us...

Founded in 1973, the Montgomery County Society for the Prevention of 
Cruelty to Animals is the only "no-kill" animal shelter in the 
Washington, DC area. The MSCPCA provides shelter, food, and medical 
care to about 40 cats at any one time. Unfortunately, our shelter is 
too small for dogs, but we do keep a list of people who have dogs to 
adopt and do telephone referrals for these dogs. We hold adoptions for 
cats every Saturday from 1-4 PM or by appointment. Potential adopters 
may visit the cats and find help making that special match.

Still other cats are helped through our foster network, where 
volunteers open their hearts and homes to cats needing special 
attention. The MSCPCA also runs a low cost spay/neuter program for both 
dogs and cats, helping to reduce the area's staggering number of 
unwanted animals.

Run entirely by volunteers and funded solely through private donations 
and fundraising activites, the MCSPCA in 1994 took in 368 cats, placed 
348 cats and kittens, facilitated hundreds of low cost spay/neuters, 
and handled hundreds of telephone referrals.

Even though we are called the Montgomery County SPCA, we serve the 
entire Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, DC area.  Don't let our name 
fool you, it doesn't matter where you live, you can come and adopt a 
cat from us.  We have adopted animals to people from Pennsylvania all 
the way to West Virginia.  We also take in animals from the whole 
MD/VA/DC area.

willing to volunteer your time, PLEASE call us.  If you would be 
willing to foster a cat in your home, PLEASE call us.  We are in 
desperate need of foster homes for the cats.  They really thrive when 
they are not confined to a cage.  Our phone number is 301-948-4266.

WE ARE CURRENTLY IN NEED OF A COPY MACHINE.  IF YOU HAVE A COPY MACHINE

TAX DEDUCTIBLE AS CHARITABLE DONATIONS. 

And remember, we are not affiliated with the Montgomery County Animal 
Shelter or the Humane Society.  We receive no funding from the 
government, nor from any corporate entity, not even the ASPCA.  We are 
funded completely by private donations.  Your donation really means a 
lot to us.  Please send all donations to (and mention that you saw this 
posting on the internet!):
