Santa Cruz SPCA Camps

Santa Cruz SPCA Camps include activities such as art, games, and other safe, hands-on activities. Campers take part in hands-on experiences that include socializing and training adoptable animals. PAWS and Paint Spring Camp is described as a mix of art, animals, and awesomeness, and SUPER PAWS – Animal heroes camp focuses on the real-life superpowers of animals, with campers creating superhero profiles, origin stories, and heroic identities for shelter animals, and helping train them for exciting “adventures.”

• Schedule: Animal browsing is available Tuesday to Sunday from 11:00 am to 5:00 pm, and the Pet Food Pantry is open on Sundays from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm.

The Santa Cruz SPCA is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to the welfare of animals. It receives no government funding and depends solely on financial support from its friends. The organization is not affiliated with any other SPCA or Humane Society. Summer Camp registration will be available in early March 2026, and 2026 Spring Camp registration is open.
