Happy Campers

Campers at the SPCA of Texas’ Critter Camp completed some amazing projects this past summer to help shelter animals stand out and feel at home. Using the Modern Cat magazine back issues we donated, the 8 to 11-year-old campers cut and pasted images, text, and even stories from the magazines to create unique, one-of-a-kind collaged cat beds using cardboard boxes. In small groups, campers constructed cat hideaways, complete with cat toys and bedding for maximum comfort. Using their copies of Modern Cat and Modern Dog magazines, they were able to spruce up their creations to give the adoptable kitties amazing custom furniture for their space at the shelter. The campers had a blast using the magazines to personalize their project, and the cats couldn’t have been happier! Immediately after the cats were introduced to their new hangout spots, they curled up, made themselves comfortable, and took a swing at the built-in toys. The SPCA of Texas is dedicated to providing every animal exceptional care and a loving home, operating two shelters, three spay/neuter and wellness clinics and an Animal Rescue Center in the North Texas area.
