Winter is coming: It won't be long until much of the country is buried
under snow. This is a time of year when there is a higher risk for serious,
life-threatening emergencies due to the weather,
which is especially true for animals left out in the cold.
Homeless, neglected and abandoned animals will soon face the harsh winter
with little protection from the elements. Temperatures will drop. Food
will be scarce. For many, there won't be any warm laps or cozy beds
to help stop the shivering. For dogs, cats and horses in need, winter
is frigid, dark and lonely.
That is why we so desperately need your help today.
Every year, local authorities turn to the ASPCA for assistance during these
icy months. Through grants and in-person deployments, we help rescue,
rehabilitate and care for animal victims of cruelty and neglect. The requests
only become more challenging each time the mercury dips.
We can't be there for these animals in need without your support.
This year, as you sit down to budget your holiday spending, and as you
pick out the perfect gifts for everyone on your list—please remember
the dogs, cats and horses who are left out in the cold.
Make a gift today to help save at-risk animals this winter and all year long.
