Eastern Shore SPCA Calendar Features Rescue Animals

Animals either currently at or recently adopted from the SPCA Eastern Shore no-kill shelter in Onley are the stars of a calendar published by the organization as a fund raising project.

Coby, an adorable Yorkie/Shih Tzu mix, heads off the local parade of pets in January, followed by alternate months of fascinating feline and personable pooch pin-up stars. December showcases the friendship between Arizona and Colorado, two domestic short hair kitties who developed a strong bond during their year and a half at the shelter and actually ended up being adopted together.

The full color wall calendar is on sale now for $10 at the shelter (located just south of Nandua High School on Route 13 in Onley) and will be available for purchase as well at all shelter events. All proceeds from the calendar will benefit the animals at the shelter.

The calendar may also be purchased at Eastern Shore Pets at Four Corner Plaza in Onley and Clay Werks at 4253 Lankford Highway in Exmore. Mail order copies are available for an additional $3 shipping and handling charge by calling the SPCA Eastern Shore shelter at 757-787-7385.
