SPCA Tampa Bay Hits a Grand SlamPhotos/taxt by Renee Burrell
Lucky the Bichon (Seminole) brought his human to Grand Slam Day so he could get his portrait taken with Tampa Bay Rays Pitcher, Grant Balfour. LARGO - SPCA's Grand Slam Day of Events Saturday raised $2,225.00 for the betterment of countless homeless, neglected, and abused animals in our community. In addition to the funds, twelve lucky animals were adopted to forever homes. Guests enjoyed meeting Tampa Bay Rays star pitcher, Grant Balfour, who posed and autographed pictures for $5 donations. Balfour and his wife, Angie, are dedicated supporters of SPCA and own adopted dogs, Zeus and ZZ. Tampa Bay SPCA is located at 9099 130th Avenue North in Largo. Adoption Hours are: Tuesday-Thursday 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m., Friday 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., Saturday 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and Sunday 12:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. To make a confidential report of suspected animal cruelty anywhere in Pinellas County, call (727) 586-3591.

SPCA Tampa Bay Humane Investigators posed with rescued miniature horses Ginger (Palomino) and Kisses (Pinto) who look the picture of health now thanks to the care they've been given at SPCA. Mo' the Donkey; horses Tabitha, Leon, and Wade; and one of SPCA's 13 goats tried to share the love and get in the shot.
