When your companion animal dies, it’s natural to feel grief and sadness, even depression. Our free support group is designed to offer anyone grieving the death, loss or terminal illness of a beloved companion animal. Led by a professional counselor, our group meets the second Thursday of each month, from 7-8:30 pm. The group usually ranges in size from 6 to 12 participants. Some people come once or twice, others four or five times. Participants need not be PHS/SPCA adopters and are not required to sign up for the class.

Join us for our Virtual PEP Talk: Caring for your Rabbit with Cathy Goldschmidt
Friday, March 26th from Noon-1:30pm
Cathy Goldschmidt has been a rabbit volunteer at PHS/SPCA for more than 20 years. She joins us to present about the exciting world of rabbit ownership, provide information about proper rabbit care, and troubleshoot behavior issues. There will be time at the end of her presentation to ask questions that you may have about your own rabbit. This is a wonderful opportunity for rabbit owners to expand upon their knowledge and potential adopters to prepare for a new rabbit.
This is a free event but donations are accepted. To register for this virtual event please contact Kylynn Pelkey at kpelkey@PHS-SPCA.org or 650-340-7022 x369.
