It’s #AnimalControlOfficerWeek! Thank you to our Peace Officers who enforce the #AnimalProtectionAct across #Alberta. They can travel hundreds of kilometres each day, often in extreme weather, to ensure no animals are in distress. They are our #AnimalHeroes.

Meet Bean. This adorable kitten came to us in rough shape - limping on the side of a rural road but thanks to Albertans like you, he received the care he desperately needed. Now Bean is showered with love every day by his new family! #BeansStory - albertaspca.org/ways-to-help…

March is #Tick Awareness Month. Ticks are active when it’s warmer than 4 degrees and are more common than you may realize. Pets can pick up a tick while walking through heavily treed walking trails, but they can also be found in tall grass. Learn more buff.ly/1nhnKB0

Thank you @HomesAlivePets for the generous donation of beef liver treats for the dogs in our care. Holster and the others were happy to sit nicely in exchange for a delicious snack!

Almost every one of the 800+ animals that came into our care last year needed to be spayed or neutered. On #WorldSpayDay, we encourage Albertans to ensure their pet receives this important procedure and reduce the number of unwanted litters - #WinWin.

We’re always sharpening our skills! #AlbertaSPCA Peace Officers recently took part in some hands-on livestock training. About half of our #animalwelfare and distress calls involve farm animals.

Mental health is often a factor in our #animalwelfare investigations. This year, we’re working with @UofAAugustana to create assessment tools for our Peace Officers, as well as other training. (1/2) @ACSRC @AlbertaAg #ABag @AAFC_Canada

This sweet girl has been in our care for more than 400 days. Primrose is playful, goofy & animated. She came to us as a stray with quills in her face. She’s healed now & ready to be connected with a great family through Four Feet And A Heartbeat. Profile buff.ly/40IvC2I
