THANK YOU!!
The Roscommon SPCA extends its heartfelt gratitude to Emily Miller, Sales & Marketing Manager at Petmania, along with Lauren and Dan from the Petmania Roscommon Town branch, for their substantial donation.
The generous contribution of dog food and three cosy beds plus a supply of SEVEN Optimal Oil will significantly aid in the nurturing and well-being of the three rescued collies Bubba, Brody and Boo. Such acts of kindness are invaluable to Roscommon SPCA, as we rely heavily on community support to continue our mission of caring for and protecting animals in need.
This gesture not only provides immediate comfort and sustenance to the dogs but also serves as an inspiring example of community involvement and corporate social responsibility.
The generosity of donors can make a significant difference in the lives of rescue animals like Bubba, Brody and Boo. With the support for their welfare and veterinary care, as well as the essential donations of food and beds, these three collies have a bright future ahead. I will post updated pictures of them soon. Thank you all so much.

DSPCA, Dogs Trust Ireland, Ispca
The Marchig Animal Welfare Trust was established in 1989 by the late Madame Jeanne Marchig of Geneva, because of her deep concern for nature and
animals and in memory of her husband, the painter Giannino Marchig.
The objects of the Trust are to protect animals and to promote and encourage practical work in preventing animal cruelty and the relief of animal suffering.
These objects are pursued by the Trust in two ways, Grants and Awards.
We are delighted to have received a grant of €8,000.00 in 2023 from the The Marchig Animal Welfare Trust to help towards the cost of the TNR program for homeless and stray cats in County Roscommon. Your contribution has made a remarkable difference in helping the vast number of cats that have been Spayed and neutered in the County.

SPAY & NEUTER
Spaying and neutering are the best ways to prevent unwanted litter of cats and dogs that often end up suffering and dying on the streets. Spaying and neutering are simple, low-cost surgeries that can save thousands of lives by reducing animal overpopulation. Spaying and neutering have a huge impact: One female cat and her offspring can produce up to 370,000 kittens in seven years! If you live in Roscommon and want to spay or neuter your cat at a discounted rate of €35.00, please call us at 087 050 5594. You may need to show proof of address.
This program is supported by Roscommon SPCA and the Department of Agriculture Animal Welfare grant 2023. We also thank the Marchig Animal Welfare Trust for their generous contribution.
Please help us spay and neuter more cats in our community
