Citizenship is everyone’s business.

Hi my name is Tayla and as a citizen of Nelson I wanted to talk about the SPCA. What I’d like to mention is the history of the SPCA, The SPCA shop, SPCA mission, how the society is funded, SPCA membership and powers and duties of animal welfare inspector.

The SPCA stands for society for the prevention of cruelty to animals

How many people in the audience have a pet?

How many people in the Audience know how to look after there pets?

Well some people don’t know how to look after there pets and they treat them cruelly.

Some people buy their pets thinking there cute and cuddly as baby’s but fail to provide them with food, water, shelter, love and kindness.

The animal welfare inspector investigates into cruelty and neglect.

The minister of Agriculture has the power to prosecute any person caught breaking the laws set out by animal welfare act 1999.The minister of Agriculture is able to enter properties or vehicles to remove animals where necessary and he’s also able to put down suffering animals. They also have the role of providing education to the members of the community about reasonable animal care.

SPCA started in England (five years before the British police force). On the 22 of February 1887 two local newspapers advertised the first meeting of the SPCA.

75 years after the British SPCA was founded a small branch of the SPCA as formed in Nelson.

The Nelson SPCA mission is to give a safe place to animals in distress. It rehomes suitable animals where possible. They have an adoption center for the public. They provide spaying and vaccinations for animals to be adopted. Sometimes stray pets are fostered to homes to learn how to be loved.

At the SPCA Shop it able to provide a large selection of pet supplies like: Collars, Brushes, Food bowls, scratch posts, beds, pet carriers and lots of cool other stuff.

The SPCA encourages the community to become members. The support from the community assists with fundraising and education. They will send you a newsletter every second month to tell you about ongoing projects and new events coming up. The society is purely a voluntary organization. They do not receive any funds whatsoever from the government they rely solely on donations and fundraising events.

As citizens in the community we need to get behind this society and support the cause.
