It happens all the time. A local SPCA rescues hens from a hoarder, then serves chicken at an SPCA-sponsored fundraiser. SPCAs and humane societies do what they can to help the nonhumans they rescue. They are often the only activists in their community protecting the welfare of other animals. That's why we need your help promoting our campaign, Food for Thought which asks non-profit shelters rescuing dogs and cats to adopt an animal friendly menu policy at their shelter-sponsored events.
