There is no bond quite like the one between humans and pets. To capture the unique nature of this relationship, the SF SPCA has begun collecting written, audio, and video stories from those whose lives have been touched by animals. The Companion Chronicles is a living archive of these timeless stories. So, what’s yours?
Cats keep it real. They are nonchalant, own every room they are in, and occasionally go insane in the middle of the night for no reason. But when they are ready to get their cuddle on, they don’t care what you are doing. Working on the computer? Trying to catch up on some reading? Nope. Not with a furry body sitting on your lap looking up at you and meowing sweetly. We’re guessing you don’t mind one bit. Tell us why you can’t resist your cat’s cuteness.
The SF SPCA has been saving and caring for San Francisco’s animals since 1868. We’ve come a long way since then—founding the No-Kill movement, building the first cage-less adoption center and advocating on behalf of all animals—to become a global leader in animal welfare and helping to establish San Francisco as one of the most progressively humane cities in the world.
We couldn’t have done it without the help of all the people who have adopted an animal, volunteered their time or provided financial support. Together, we’ve been able to bring pets and people together, celebrating the merriment, magic and meaning that animals bring to all of our lives. Thank you for your generosity—the animals we save, the lives we change, and the communities we touch are all made possible because of you!
