My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Sekhmet is a beautiful female tabby kitty about 4 months of age. Her soft, plush coat is brown with black stripes and highlighted with white on her feet, chest, neck and a cute stripe down her nose. The fosterer named her for an Egyptian lion goddess because of her unique mane and regal bearing. Sekhmet had a rough start to her young life. A vet-tech heard cat cries from a dumpster and found a TIED plastic bag moving violently as Sekhmet tried to escape death in the garbage. The poor cat was malnourished, covered in poop from her struggles, and terrified of men. The tech took her to Dr. Johnson and then Sekhmet came to foster care where it took several weeks for her to recover from her abuse and not be terrified. She still guards her food from other cats and should most probably be an “only fur-child”. Sekhmet eats wet and dry food but really prefers dry adult food over dry kitten food. She likes fish-flavored wet food and Temptations treats now and then. Sekhmet likes ball toys and other things she can bat around. This is a very smart cat who learned her name and comes when called, expecting cuddles and/or treats. Amarillo SPCA, 11901 S. Coulter. 806-622-0555.

More about this shelter

The Amarillo SPCA is a 501(c)3 non profit organization. We operate solely on donations and fundraisers.

Presently, we operate a shelter for dogs and cats. We have approximately 100 animals housed at the shelter and in foster care.

One of our main concerns is pet over population. It is important that the public be educated about the importance of spaying and neutering their pets. It is also our goal to make sure every animal that is adopted from the SPCA is sterilized before going to a new home.

We receive calls daily from people who request help with their animals--either needing to give them up or asking for help with food and medical needs. We help whenever we can, but financially we're not able to help often.

We have grown to the extent that volunteers alone cannot provide necessary hours for operating the kennels. We have a shelter manager and other part time employees for the care of the animals and maintenance of our facility.

Costs for our facility include payroll for these employees, good quality food for the animals, heat and air conditioning, medical treatment for sickness or injury. Additional costs for the animals always include vaccinations, deworming, microchipping and sterilization before leaving the shelter to go to new homes. Our vet bills are high and frequently expenses are far more than the adoption fee of $100. Therefore donations are hugely appreciated! We look forward to your contribution and particularly to your interest in one of our dogs or cats as a permanent companion.

Thanks so much, Amarillo SPCA
