Are You Grieving the Loss of a Pet?
Do you need someone to talk to about it? Someone who understands? Someone who mourns the loss of their pet too? The SPCA Pet Loss Support Group may help.
The group is facilitated by Rob Gierka, a non-denominational chaplain (email: rob@gierka.com). While beneficial, the SPCA Pet Loss Support Group is not intended to replace professional counseling services or physician recommendations. It simply provides a space for sharing with others who have shared in the experience of the loss of a pet.
The meetings are open to all who are interested.

Home Adopting Network
2020-06-15 14:00 - 15:00, 2020-06-10 14:00 - 15:00, 2020-06-04 14:00 - 15:00, 2020-05-27 14:00 - 15:00, 2020-05-20 14:00 - 15:00, 2020-05-14 14:00 - 15:00 | NC
Since you can’t visit the pets, we’re bringing the pets to you! Yes, we are broadcasting SPCA adoptable pets to you via Facebook live stream. At 2:00 PM, an SPCA staff member will tour the adoption center meeting with each adoptable pet.
Essentially, SPCA Wake is creating a version of the Home Shopping Network, called the Home Adopting Network while the adoption center is closed to the public, to curb the spread of COVID-19. Potential adopters will be able to communicate directly with the camera operator, asking questions about specific pets, requesting belly rubs, or deliver treats on the viewer’s behalf.

VIRTUAL EVENT | Dog Walk & Woofstock
2020-04-04 19:45 - 20:00 | Online, spcawake.org/walk
When: Saturday, April 4 (NOTE- this is no longer an in-person event)
Where: ONLINE
Join us online as we light the pathway home for over 4,000 homeless pets.
By transforming the event into an online virtual experience, the homeless pets will get the life-saving resources they need, and we will do everything we can to slow the spread of COVID-19. Therefore, we will be featuring something special online at 7:45 pm on April 4th, but it will be in accordance with the latest guidelines set forth by Governor Cooper to ensure our community's safety.
Registration for this event is still free, but we hope every Dog Walk participant will continue to work towards their fundraising goal of saving 1 pet by raising a minimum of $100. Everyone who raises a $100 will receive a Dog Walk t-shirt, while everyone who registers for the event will receive 1 matching pet bandana. Check out the Event Info/FAQ section for further information about this event.

.
We love bunnies, and people who love bunnies! But please know this is a courtesy event posting for one of SPCA Wake's transfer partners, Triangle Rabbit Society. SPCA Wake works closely with Triangle Rabbit Society to find homes for hundreds of homeless, or misplaced house rabbits. But please know SPCA Wake is not involved with this event.
.

This festival will feature educational presentations, a bunny spa, professional animal photography, and a wide variety of vendors. They will also have raffles, silent auctions as well as an auction of custom-designed rabbit masks. Following Bunfest they will host a masquerade ball - a night of fellowship with other rabbit lovers.
