Arkham SPCA - 111 W College St

This new organization is dedicated to the prevention of cruelty to animals; it is well-funded by some of Arkham’s most prosperous citizens. The president, 62-year-old Wilma Peabody (sister of the mayor), has filed suit against the students, who apparently sacrificed dogs and cats in some ritual. She has hired Edwin Cassidy to represent the Society, and hopes to get rulings which eventually will remove domestic animals from the status of absolute chattels and into a new class where death or injury may be promoted only for very restricted, specified causes.
