Do your animal lovin’ kids want to learn more about animal welfare?

Then Houston SPCA’s Critter Camp is the place to be over the summer!  Our in-person, week-long adventures will include Vet Camp, Animal Rescue and Forensics, and Jr. Pet Pals.  The day camps run from the beginning of June to the beginning of August each year in the Carruth Education Center, located on the Houston SPCA campus.

Our goal is to give all children the opportunity to learn about the world of animal welfare and career paths such as Veterinary Medicine, Animal Care, and Animal Cruelty Investigations, despite economic challenges. There is a limited number of need-based scholarships available, which are granted in the order of applications received.

The Houston SPCA offers schools a robust educational program throughout the greater Houston area with age-appropriate, on-site presentations that inspire and educate. We’ve reached more than 200,000 teachers, students, and parents over the past 20 years with impactful lessons that evoke empathy, kindness, and compassion. Please email education@houstonspca.org to learn more.
