Top bidders win a voucher for a 'night out' with their selected bachelor at one of Shanghai's fine dining venues and the "RUFF"est Hunk winner will be taking home an antique opium bed worth 5,000 RMB!

So...who will be Shanghai's RUFF'est hunk of 'em all? Join the masses this October 20th at Vinyl Studio as these brave and sexy souls embrace their inner hunk (and if we're lucky a dancing pole) leaving the audience swooning into their wallets and all in the name of our favorite furry friends.

  INTRODUCTION
 

Dear SCAA Community,

I hope you had a nice holiday and welcome back! It’s been an intense two months trying to fill Carol’s shoes while continuing my other responsibilities with events, marketing, internet and business. I am very grateful to the new and old volunteers who have stepped up recently and helped immensely in this transition period. Our core mission is still the same, helping companion animals one at a time. While at the same time, it's you, the SCAA community that makes that happen. Please feel free to contact me at any time or talk to me at the SCAA events with whatever concerns you may have.

I am delighted to have this position and look forward to working with all the fantastic volunteers, supporters and sponsors to build on Carol Wolfson’s excellent work. (Fyi, Carol will be here helping us out until the end of the year and looks forward to seeing you at all the SCAA events.)

Warmest Regards,

Milton Menefee
Executive Director SCAA

If you are like me and have a ton of emails each day, I think you can relate in that you don’t want an email that takes more than five minutes to read.

"I randomly took them while playing with my littlest guy the other day. One's where's he'd doing the standard  'peek-a-boo' pose but it's basically a lead-up to the second shot. Too funny! Even though he's not an official SCAA critter (I found him a drainage ditch three months ago), he's still showing his SCAA support!"
