Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (Hong Kong)
The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (Hong Kong) (Chinese: 香港愛護動物協會) is a registered charity to promote animal welfare in Hong Kong, with outreach services to China.〔("China outreach" ), SPCA(HK), accessed 16 August 2014.〕
==History==
The organization was the first charity in Hong Kong to deal with a full range of animal welfare concerns.〔 It was founded by a group of volunteers in 1903, who operated it mainly on a volunteer basis. Activities were suspended in 1914 due to the outbreak of World War I. The organization was re-established in 1921, with the Governor Reginald Edward Stubbs as President and Patron.〔
In 1922, the organization's first Dog's Home opened in Waterloo Road, Kowloon.〔 Following the loss of that site in 1934, a new expanded boarding kennel was opened in Kowloon City, which housed many animals left by people fleeing the area during the Second World War.〔
The society's first veterinary clinic opened in Kowloon in 1953.〔 An expanded animal clinic offering free services to pet owners was opened in the 1960s.〔 The first mobile vet clinic was offered in 1987.〔
In the 1950s, cat boxes were introduced as places for people to leave unwanted cats and kittens. The cat box locations were expanded in 1970.〔 In 2000, the organization took a different approach, pioneering the Cat Colony Care Programme in Asia involving trap-neuter-return.〔 In 2014, the society reported on its website that 5,000 cats' lives are ended annually in its care and that of the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department, a reduction from 40,000 in 1963.〔
In 2012, the Barking Lot Cafe (Stanley Adoption Centre) opened in Stanley.
