After being hit by a car, this snapping turtle was left with a broken jaw and a very uncertain future. He has a long road to recovery, but we’re hopeful that with time and continued care, he’ll fully recover and return to the wild where he belongs. #SPCACompassionInAction

When Garfield arrived at the SPCA, he was so tiny he could fit in the palm of your hand. Today, he’s the kitten who practically launches himself into your arms and buries his face in your neck for a cuddle. It’s hard not to fall for a little guy who loves people this much.

Meet Tilly, this week's @WBEN Newshound! This girl is pure sweetness! She is a total social butterfly who loves getting attention from EVERYONE she meets. Tilly is treat-motivated and already knows how to sit! What more could you ask for? Learn more at 8:52 tomorrow morning!
