Nevada SPCA Animal Rescue

Pearl Topaz In the early afternoon of September 9, a woman was witnessed throwing a purple suitcase (below) into the dumpster of a veterinary hospital. Later that afternoon, as staff approached the dumpster, they could hear faint screams and cries.  They were horrified to realize the sounds of terror were coming from the purple suitcase and they rushed to retrieve it.  They unzipped it and found two cats inside in severe heat distress and trauma.  They urgently cooled the cats and saved them from heat stroke. For the past 10 weeks, the cats -- now named Pearl and Topaz -- have been recovering well from dehydration.  They are now healthy, spayed/neutered, and triumphantly debuting for adoption today at Nevada SPCA. Pet'ographique generously helped us celebrate their recoveries with these elegant portraits to emphasize that they are treasures, not trash. Pearl is a graceful young grey & white shorthair with jewel-like eyes, about 3 years of age...

Charleston was found abandoned outside in a neighborhood, dehydrated and injured. He has now regained weight and energy, but he has permanent head tilt from what is believed to have resulted from blunt force trauma.  Charleston is a super cute American breed guinea pig, under 2 years of age, and full of spirit.  He would love to be pampered with fresh daily greens, a comfortable indoor-only environment, and a compassionate and stable owner who will protect him from any further cruelty.  Please ask for Charleston by name in Nevada SPCA's Lovebugs Room.

Criswell is an exceptionally handsome Chinchilla (breed) rabbit now ready for adoption at Nevada SPCA.  He delights in sitting beside you contentedly while you read a book or magazine.  Criswell is 2 years young, neutered, and back in good health.  At the time of rescue he was in very poor condition, including severe dehydration, after being abandoned on the streets.  (So many people mistakenly believe that domesticated rabbits can survive in this desert climate and find food on their own.)  Please help us find someone wonderful to adopt Criswell , giving him an indoor-only and loving home where he never wants for anything again.
