The ASPCA, the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, is an organization that has a mission making the world a better place for animals. It is particularly involved concerning animals that are pets or are wild animals being held in captivity.

Here is a description of the organization as given on its website: "The ASPCA was the first humane organization in the Western Hemisphere. Our mission, as stated by our founder, Henry Bergh, in 1866, is 'to provide effective means for the prevention of cruelty to animals throughout the United States.'"

What they do is if someone sees another person abusing their pet they will call them. Then they will come, take the pet away and sue the owner. If you know someone who does this call the ASPCA and tell them what the persons name is, what kind of animal it is, where the abuse is happening, and your name. Please call if you do see an animal being abused it could save the life of a poor defenseless animal. it needs your help

You may have misspelt a word. WikiAnswers suggests RSPCA, which stands for the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.

The RSPCA is a service that makes sure no animals are abused or offended etc. If abused, pets may be given to the RSPCA where they will train the pets to pipe up more if they are sad etc. Then, they will be given to an animal pound or families who would like these pets.

If you want to know more about the RSPCA, visit their website!

Change the last two letters according to your country.

eg. www.rspca.org.au
