We are thrilled to report that our adoption counselors united 37 pets with families this past week! Our goal is to find homes for 59 orphaned animals next week. If you love cute pictures of pets and happy stories, be sure to look for our alumni updates on our Facebook and tumblr pages.

Due to the snow last Wednesday, Supper Club at Lemaire was rescheduled for this week. Make your reservations online using OpenTable or by calling 804-649-4629. Supper Club is a monthly local dining series, and each participating restaurant pledges to donate 15 percent of their sales to the Richmond SPCA on a selected evening. Lemaire has also generously selected the Richmond SPCA as their Dining for Charity beneficiary and will donate 5 percent of food sales each Monday in March, giving animal lovers even more opportunities to dine for their favorite cause!
