SPCA OF NORTHERN NEVADA MARDI PAWS PROMOTION

 Pet Adoptions to Meet Our Community's Needs

(Reno, NV) – The SPCA of Northern Nevada (SPCA) is celebrating Mardi Gras with a Mardi Paws promotion March 3 through March 8.

The SPCA’s adoption goal for 2014 is 1,864 adoptions to coincide with Nevada’s Sesquicentennial, the 150th anniversary of Nevada’s admission to the Union.  Help us reach our goal by adopting a dog or cat from the SPCA during Mardi Paws and give them a forever loving home.

The SPCA relies solely on donations from our community. If you would like to make a one-time, monthly or yearly donation, please visit spcanevada.org or call 775-324-7773 x204.

Rainbow Bridge: Pet Loss Grief Support, This Thurs in Reno

SPCA of Northern Nevada Presents

FREE MONTHLY PET LOSS GRIEF CLASSES

 beginning THIS THURSDAY

(Reno, NV) – The SPCA of Northern Nevada (SPCA) is offering a monthly pet loss grief class designed to help pet guardians with the passing of a companion animal, either recently or in the past. These classes will be ongoing throughout 2014 on the fourth Thursday of each month at 5:30 pm and will be held at the SPCA’s Stanley James Walker Pet Care and Adoption Center. This Thursday the class will focus on “From Grief to Mourning.” These free classes will focus on one to two topics each month about pet loss and will be moderated by Steve Woods, owner of A Beloved Friends Pet Crematory (http://abelovedfriendspetcrematory.com) and Rev. Stephen Arvin, local Public Safety Chaplain.

Our companion animals provide unconditional love and companionship so it is natural to feel great anguish and sadness when they pass, leaving a tremendous hole in our hearts. Find support and coping tools to move past one of life’s very real challenges with such topics as Understanding Grief, Stages and Myths of Grief, Normal Reactions to Grief, Consequences of Denial of Grief, Grief for Children and Seniors, and many other subjects.

The SPCA is located at 4950 Spectrum Blvd in Reno.  Please RSVP to Elizabeth@spcanevada.org to reserve your spot in class. If you have any questions, please call 775-324-7773 x200.

Terri Jay, Medium, Intuitive and Pet Psychic at the Atlantis Sun Feb 23

Intuitive Messenger, Local Pet Psychic from Artown's Annual Art Paws to Focus Her Energy on Animals

The Atlantis Hotel Resort Spa presents, "Terri Jay, Medium, Intuitive and Pet Psychic," Sunday, February 23rd at 2pm. Join Terri for an afternoon of readings on both people and pets who have passed and get help with relationships, finances, health, pets, horses and anything else that comes up. Terri has been doing readings by phone all over the world for the last 24 years. Her work has earned her the praise of several veterinarians who were amazed at the details that she receives that can aid in the healing process of the animals.

In 1990, Terri "heard" a non-verbal disabled child in her horseback  therapy program. Once she had it confirmed, it was suggested that she  learn to communicate with the horses since that would make her program  really safe. One thing has led to another and now she knows that there  are no limits to the types of information that she can receive.

"I know my work is based in physics," Jay said . "Everything is  energy and everything has a vibration and frequency. All I do is pick up  on vibrations and frequencies that other people miss--I feel like a big cell phone tower." Jay continued by sharing, 

"All of us are born with 10 senses--five physical and five spiritual. We just shut off the spiritual  senses in childhood. I believe that anyone can learn to do this work by just following simple steps to turn these abilities back on."

Tickets are available at http://terrijay.com/atlantis_event.htm or at the Atlantis Gift Shop. Dinner and show packages are also available through the Atlantis. General admission tickets are $30. and General Admission with a reading tickets are $50. Entertainment tax is included in the ticket prices. A limited number of "readings tickets" are available.
