SPCA Continues to Provide Pet Food for Flood Victims

 

SPCA Monterey County will be at Pajaro Middle School on Tuesday, April 18  from 10 am - 12 pm, to distribute pet food for those affected by the recent flooding and evacuations.  Food for dogs, cats, birds, chickens, and small pets will be available. Pajaro Middle School is located at 250 Salinas Rd. in Pajaro. 



This distribution is only for Pajaro residents. 


The SPCA previously distributed food in the area on April 7, and when evacuated pets were reunited with their owners, the SPCA provided free pet food as well. 


“The people of Pajaro have been through so much,” says Beth Brookhouser, SPCA Vice President of Marketing and Communications. “We are giving free pet food to all Pajaro pet owners so residents of Pajaro don't need to worry about feeding their pets during this time.”


SPCA Monterey County cared for 244 pets evacuated during the recent flooding. We provided pet food and supplies to all local emergency shelters and to anyone evacuating with their pets. All emergency services provided by The SPCA are free of charge and supported through the generosity of our compassionate donors.

Lake San Antonio Closed Due to Large Scale Fish Die Off; Number of Fish Impacted is Increasing and Reason for Die Off Remains Unknown

On July 5, 2024, Parks staff noticed that dead baitfish, mostly shad, began washing up on the shore around Lake San Antonio and immediately contacted California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) to report the situation. At that time, the CDFW fisheries biologist stated the fish die off was most likely due to the high temperatures and low dissolved oxygen level in the water and that the situation most likely did not present a risk to the public.
