SPCA of Northeastern North Carolina

We wanted to do a little housekeeping and clear up some confusion.

We are not the SPCA of NENC, and they are not involved with shelter operations.

We also do not have access to records from before January 2026.

The SPCA of NENC does still exist, but it is a separate organization and is not a part of us.

If you are mailing something to us at 102 Enterprise Drive, please be sure it is addressed to Pasquotank Animal Services so it does not get redirected to the SPCA. They have their own address on their page.

Pasquotank Animal Services handles animal control operations for both Camden and Pasquotank County. Our shelter is funded by the counties, and we will always do our best to provide transparency about where your tax dollars and donations are going.

We are so grateful for the support our community has shown us during these first months, and we are excited to see what comes next.

Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

URGENT Message for Feral Cat Caregivers in Elizabeth City

If you are currently feeding or caring for community cat colonies, please private message us as soon as possible. There is an Elizabeth City ordinance requiring caregivers to be registered, and we want to make sure everyone who is helping these animals is on the official list and supported — not put at risk.

You are not alone in this work. We are building a network to ensure cats are fed, fixed, and safe — and that caregivers are informed and protected.

Please send us a private message so we can get you registered and connected.

Thank you for caring.

For decades, the SPCA of Northeastern North Carolina has been privileged to serve Elizabeth City and the surrounding region by caring for homeless, abandoned, and vulnerable animals. Together with our employees, volunteers, donors, and community partners, we have built a network of compassion that has touched thousands of lives—both human and animal alike.

Now, the SPCA of NENC is in the process of transferring the shelter and its operations to Pasquotank County. This decision comes after much thought and we believe it represents the best path forward to ensure that animals in need continue to receive the care and protection they deserve.

While this transition marks a new chapter, it does not diminish the deep gratitude we feel for the support the community has given us over the past decades. Whether you worked at the shelter, adopted a pet, volunteered your time, made a donation, or simply shared our mission—you made a difference.

We look forward to working with Pasquotank County to ensure that this transition is smooth and that animals remain at the heart of our community. While the SPCA of NENC no longer plans to operate the shelter, our commitment to animals has not ended. We intend to explore new ways to serve, support, and advocate for the well-being of pets and the people who love them.

With heartfelt appreciation,
SPCA of Northeastern North Carolina

We want to take a moment to say thank you to everyone who has volunteered, donated, adopted, or fostered. We truly couldn’t do what we do without your support!

A special thank you goes out to the 32 amazing volunteers from Mid-Atlantic Christian University who joined us yesterday. They spent the day socializing cats, creating enrichment, and even walking dogs. Your hard work and kindness mean the world to us and to the animals in our care.

We are so grateful for this incredible community. You continue to inspire us every day! ❤️🐾

Ps: our phone lines are working again!
