The Sweet Onion Animal Protection Society (SOAPS) is a 501 (c)(3) not-for-profit organization whose goal is to promote animal welfare through education, care, and placement of stray or unwanted animals.
Additionally, SOAPS advocates sterilization as a means of pet population control, offers community awareness of pet health and safety issues, and strives to encourage humane care of all animals in the Toombs County area.
UPCOMING EVENTS
June 2012 is Adopt a Shelter Cat Month and SOAPS is once again sponsoring a "2 Purr 1" adoption event. For every cat or kitten adopted at the regular price, you can adopt a second one free!
Again, if you can help with any event, or have any ideas for fundraising, please contact either Marcia or Pam.
PAST EVENTS
The SOAPS 3rd Annual Spay-ghetti Dinner and Silent Auction was a great success.
Prior to the event we circulated 1000 hand outs advertising the dinner and
explaining the importance of spay/neuter. We sold nearly 400 tickets and had many of our local politicians,
law enforcement, news media, and our own local "Pilots and Paws" pilot
as our "Celebrity Servers".
Several high school students came to complete their community service hours
by filling plates, refreshing tea, and maintaining the clean tables.
Entertainment was provided by "Sam's Drive In Band", and we had the special delight of hosting
children's author, Susan Meddaugh along with "Martha" from the PBS Series, "Martha Speaks".
We had many wonderful items in our silent auction.
Overall, we made nearly $8,000.00 to be used for future spay/neuter vouchers.
A very Special Thank You to our Corporate Sponsors, Chicken of the Sea, US Pet Nutrition,
Lark Builders, Chatters, McLain Farms, Herndon Farms, Buster and Elaine Akins, Stephens
Trucking, and Brown Implement.

Pet of the Month: Muffin
This is Muffin.
Australian Cattle Dog (Blue Heeler)/Labrador Retriever Mix:
An adoptable dog in Vidalia, GA.
Medium • Adult • Female
Muffin is aptly named. She is just about the sweetest, little
chubby girl you could ever meet. Best guess is that she is a
blue heeler/lab mix who loves the water. Muffin is about 2 years old,
heartworm negative, and spayed. She would love a home with someone who
can take the time to train her and give her the attention she craves.
She is just beginning leash walking. Muffin loves to run and would do
best in a home with a fenced in yard. Muffin loves to play with other
dogs, but does like to chase cats! Muffin was rescued from Lyons shelter
as a pup and has been waiting on a home for a while, unfortunately she has
been overlooked but would be a wonderful pet for someone! Muffin is available
through SOAPS FOSTER PROGRAM. Thanks!! Holly SOAPS PO BOX 210 Vidalia, Ga 30475.
More about Muffin:
- Spayed/Neutered
- Up-to-date with routine shots
- Primary color: Black
- Coat length: Short
