With the subfreezing temperatures hitting us tonight and tomorrow – and during the winter months, most pet owners know to bring their pets inside. Here is a list of places to call if you see a pet that is left outdoors and has no proper shelter (but who are we kidding – even with proper shelter it is way to cold for a pet to be left outdoors!)
Nassau County:
Contact the Nassau County SPCA at Abuse Hotline Phone: 516-THE-SPCA (843-7722) or if you are not sure if it is abuse i.e. maybe the owner is not well either call their adminstration office at (516) 812-7771.

Please do not leave your pets out long to go potty and do not take them for long walks. Check their paw pads when you bring them back inside for any cuts or scrapes. If you have booties, and a warm coat for your dog please be sure to put them on before they go outdoors.
If you have an indoor/outdoor cat – keep the cat inside until the temperatures go above freezing.
Wonderful organizations that you can call for help if the SPCA’s or animal shetlers can’t help are as follows: (please note this list may be updated!)
Pets should enjoy the snow, supervised of course, and never left out in it. Bulldogs Izzy & Igor romp and have fun and go right back inside their warm house.
