The New Beginnings SPCA is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization that operates solely on donations and profits from our thrift store and does not receive tax dollars. We are also a no-kill organization, which means animals are never euthanized simply because they are homeless or have behavioral problems. We euthanize only if there are serious health issues that are contagious to other animals (such as Feline Leukemia) or if the animal is suffering and not curable.

Animal rescue: We find homes for homeless cats, dogs and rabbits. Because we do not yet have our shelter built we are very limited in the number of animals we can accept. Please call our voice mail for more information. You will need to leave your name, address, phone number and a short description of the animal. If we have room to take your pet we will call you. If we do not currently have room we will mail you information on finding a home for your pet All animals needing a home are kept on our list for 90 days. If someone calls wanting a pet matching the description you gave we will pass your name and number on to that person.

Low-income spay/neuter: To apply for a voucher for help with spay/neuter just call 464-4313. A volunteer will call you back and fill out the application right over the phone. Once approved, the voucher will be sent to the vet.

Feral Kitty Committee: Caring for feral cats in public and private sectors. Please see the Feral Kitty page for more details.

Providing food for low-income pets: We accept donations of pet food that is then passed on to low-income citizens and used for the feral kitty committee. Donations can be dropped off at the thrift store.

No-Kill Shelter: We are soon beginning construction on a no-kill shelter. For more information on that, please see our Shelter Page.

Our thrift store is located at 1212 SE Stephens in Roseburg. We welcome clean, usable donations. All donations are placed in the store for sale with the profits going back to the animals. The thrift store is open Monday through Saturday 9AM to 5PM (6PM during the summer) and Noon to 5PM on Sunday. Donations can be dropped off anytime during normal business hours.

The series of one hour classes cost $45 and lasts for 6 weeks. For more information, or to find out when the next class will be held, please call Jo at 496-0413.
