KELSEYVILLE, Calif. – On Sunday, June 18, the SPCA of Lake County will hold an open house for the community to come and see upgrades to its Kelseyville headquarters.

The open house will take place from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the facility, located at 8025 Highway 29.

When the facility sustained significant damage due to a burst water pipe in the ceiling in December, the SPCA Board of Directors took the opportunity to give the facility a fresh new look and update some well-used equipment.

Businesses and community members stepped up to aid in the remodel, donating time and services, or deeply discounting the prices of their products.

The SPCA Board acknowledged and thanked the following people and businesses: Fischer Development, The Carpetman, Turner Insulation, Lake County Drywall, Kelseyville Lumber, Hardester’s Market, Pierce Electric, Konocti Computers, Winston Construction, Willy White, Running Springs Heating and Air, JD Medical Supply, Rebecca Bloomquist, Langley Construction, Adrian Andrews, Sustainable Furniture Inc. and Olga Martin-Steele.

Because of the generosity of these businesses and people, the building now has new floors, freshly painted walls, shiny new equipment and much more.

Last year, through Clearlake Pet Project – a partnership with Animal Refugee Response – 800 dogs and cats were spayed or neutered at the SPCA thanks to the generous grants from PetSmart charities and Jameson Animal Rescue Ranch.

This year, Clearlake Pet Project is back bigger and stronger as PetSmart charities renewed the grant for additional 1,000 dogs and cats.

Applications can be found on the Animal Refugee Response Web site as well as the SPCA of Lake County Web site.

The SPCA of Lake County continues to provide low cost vaccinations, microchipping and more at its monthly vaccination clinic held on the third Sunday of each month from 9 to 11 a.m. There will be a vaccination clinic on Sunday before the open house.

During the open house, members of the public will be provided light refreshments and will have the opportunity to meet the board of directors, tour the facility, and hear about the great work that is taking place.

As always, the SPCA of Lake County is grateful for public donations and relies on public support to continue its mission.

If you are unable to visit the SPCA, but would like to donate, the mailing address is P.O. Box 784, Clearlake CA 95422.
