Rescued by the NYPD after someone observed her being kicked and punched on the sidewalk, Gidget was brought to the ASPCA, where we discovered she had a potentially deadly condition. With specialized care, this spunky dog recovered and found her person: bit.ly/4A7IqhW

Halloween plus Daylight Saving Time means spooky fun followed by one very confused pet. 🎃⏰ Sure, we gained an hour, but your dog or cat still thinks dinner is late and bedtime is overdue. No pet to negotiate with? Visit aspca.org/adopt 😉

We are heartbroken by the passing of our longtime friend Sir Patrick Stewart. 🧡 A passionate advocate for pit bulls, Patrick used his voice to challenge stereotypes and protect animals from cruelty. We are forever grateful for his compassion and friendship.

Whether it's for a weekend or a month, fostering has an impact larger than just one animal 🧡 Our network of fosters across the ASPCA's programs is a lifeline. By fostering, you're freeing up space for the next animal in need. That's #TheRescueEffect 🐾 aspca.org/TheRescueEffect

Commercial breeding facilities, AKA puppy mills, are often closed to the public and the USDA inspects infrequently. While the public can request inspection images, it can take up to TWO YEARS to receive them! Puppy mill dogs are left hidden. Take action: aspca.org/GoldiesAct
