About us | Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Los Angeles (spcaLA) is an independent, nonprofit animal welfare organization serving Southern California since 1877. We believe that animals, as living creatures, have value beyond economic measurement, and are entitled to legal, moral and ethical consideration and protection. From violence-prevention programs aimed at reinserting empathy in youth in at-risk communities, to a full-service Pet Hotel and Grooming Salon, spcaLA has reinforced the importance of kindness to animals and the human-animal bond. |
