SPCA's Pet TreeTraditionIn 1975, the Martinsville Henry County SPCA began a tradition of Christmas stockings to memorialize beloved pets throughout the community. The first tree to house the stockings was placed at the Martinsville Library with Senator Virgil Goode hanging the first stocking of the program. Each stocking is handmade by volunteers in their favorite crafting design. Over the years, the SPCA has placed trees at numerous locations throughout the community. Grocery stores, banks, veterinary clinics, libraries, and the SPCA itself, have all hosted these memorial Christmas trees. In the 1990’s, two volunteers, Pauline Wells and Alice Ann Blevins, handmade the tree skirts and tree-top stockings that are still in use today. This wonderful program allows community members to remember or honor pets both living and deceased. Participants can simply add the name of a pet to a stocking, they can submit a photo to be hung with the stocking, or they can request a Christmas card to the family of the pet with the stocking. This amazing program has saved hundreds of lives since its inauguration. Please continue this life-saving and time-honored program by submitting the form below with your donation by Wednesday, December 19th. If you are interested in volunteering to make new stockings, please contact Alice Ann Blevins at 276-656-1101.
Tree locations: Blue Ridge Regional Library, Collinsville Branch Library, King’s Mountain Animal Clinic, SPCA Shelley Frith Drane Adoption Center, Fido’s Finds & Kittie’s Kollectibles, and the Pet Clinic of Martinsville Click HERE to complete your form.

Christmas Cards by the SPCA
Everyone loves the feeling of the holidays, but there is always a lot to do! Shopping for Christmas presents and holiday meals, putting up the Christmas tree, and hanging the stockings all fills your busy schedule. When do you have time to write everyone’s Christmas cards? Let the SPCA help you send those cards out to your loved ones on your behalf. With a donation to the SPCA and your list of recipients, we will send each person an original 2018 Martinsville Henry County SPCA Christmas card identifying that, in their honor, you are saving lives and promoting a no kill community. Not only will your recipients feel the Christmas cheer, but every homeless cat and dog at your local shelter will benefit from your generous gift. Help the SPCA keep the Christmas spirit alive this season by participating in this tradition. If you have any questions, please call 276-638-7297 and ask for Hunter!
