Pawsitive Update: Donut Was Left Shivering In The Cold

The SPCA of Wake County issued a reminder Saturday night to bring pets inside during this week's bitterly cold temperatures.

Friday night, an SPCA staff member found an abandoned five-week-old puppy shivering outdoors in 27-degree weather.

The puppy, now named Donut, was left by someone who could not or did not want to care for it.

"There are many situations in which families simply can no longer keep their pets. We understand that, but there are responsible ways to find a new home for your animal. Leaving a pet to fend for itself in dangerous temperatures is not one of those ways," SPCA spokeswoman Tara Lynn said.

If pet owners insist on keeping their pets outside, they should always provide animals shelter.

Donut is currently being fostered by an SPCA staff member until she is able to be spayed and placed for adoption.
