The Criticisms passage is legitimate as a section but has some n.p.o.v. problems. E.g., "did not pass the smell test." Maybe so, but according to whom? "Some critics have pointed out that its feral cat fix program is inhumane and ineffective, while others claim that the SF SPCA is the most anti-wildlife humane organization in the country." Can the writer name and quote the parties that made these particular claims?

I changed the criticisms passage to "controversies" and reworte in more neutral language. It still needs citations.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Sfspcalogo.gif

Image:Sfspcalogo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
