SPCA-Sandra Sue Benson Animal Adoption Center

Sandra Sue Benson Animal Adoption Center is a volunteer center looking for more animal friendly volunteers to help with the animals in SanPatCounty.
(1)

Please consider being a valued volunteer team member. Sandra Sue Benson Animal Adoption Center is up and running. Our cat rooms are full with many cats and kittens waiting for their furever homes. SPCA San Pat County has built and maintains an animal adoption center that is serving the needs of San Patrico County. It was created to provide the community a facility where people can adopt a homeles

s pet and where animals can be housed in a humane manner while awaiting a loving home. Our work as just begun with the opening of the animal adoption building named for Sandra Sue Benson, who was a loving and generous benefactor. Our original building is named in her honor. Thanks to Sandra Sue Benson we were able to purchase land to grow our mission for years to come. Our first director of the adoption center, Dona Farrar, was a strong proponent of “fixing” your pet before they reproduced. She was a driving force in educating the public as to this need as well as enforcing it in the plan to insure animals adopted from the SPCA San Pat County were spayed and neutered. We believe in working hard to educate the public about the need to spay or neuter their pets, and we require it of each adopter. All animals that are adopted need to be spayed or neutered by six weeks of age or before they leave our facility. This part of Texas has euthanized too many animals, and we believe it is far too common. Additionally, the number of animals that roam our county, homeless and hungry, often dumped, and in poor health surpasses by far other parts of the USA. We have honored Dona’s legacy by naming the second building the Dona Farrar Intake Facility. We hope you will consider donating to our agenda with volunteering, donating food, collars and leashes, or making a monetary contribution to our mission to improve the lives of animals who could be loving pets in San Patricio County. Sandra Sue Benson and Dona Farrar believed in our mission. Can you get on board as well?

🌟 Big things are happening for our shelter! 🌟

Today, I had the chance to speak with three local businesses about partnering with us to host future adoption days — and I’m beyond excited! These collaborations mean more visibility, more love, and most importantly… more chances for our shelter babies to find their forever homes. 🐾❤️

Every step forward, every conversation, every partnership brings us closer to our mission:
👉 Bringing hearts home, one paw at a time.

Check out our flyer below and help us spread the word! Let’s continue to build a compassionate, animal-loving community right here in Aransas Pass and beyond.

Meet Peeta 🐾✨
This sweet boy from our Hunger Games litter is currently thriving in foster care and finally learning what it means to feel safe and loved. 💛

Peeta was shy and timid when he first arrived, but now? He’s full of tail wags, zoomies, and toy-chomping joy! 🧸 Watching him play and open up has been heartwarming — but what he truly needs is a forever family to call his own.

Let’s help Peeta find his happily ever after.

🎉🎂 Happy 2nd Birthday, Carol! 🎂🎉

Our gorgeous girl Carol’s guestimated to be 2 years old today—and she’s still waiting for her forever home. 💔

Carol is a stunning tortoiseshell with bright golden eyes and a heart full of love. She adores people and is friendly with dogs too! 🐾🐶 But she prefers to be the only cat in the spotlight—this diva wants all your love to herself, and we can’t blame her. 💁‍♀️💕

She’s playful, curious, and always ready to greet visitors with her signature stare that says, “Take me home, human.”

🎁 Help Carol celebrate her birthday by sharing her story or coming to meet her in person. The best gift she could ever receive is a loving home to call her own. 🏡❤️
