Freya’s babies started the messy transition from milk to solids. Make sure your volume is all the way up so you can hear them eating.
Some of us at CFC love it while the others aren’t so keen. Tell us if you find this sound endearing or not. We’d love the hear what you guys think!
Pepper made the most of the leftover event balloons!
We are looking forward to our upcoming visit to Seasons Retirement Community next week. 🐱
We have just admitted 10 kittens! 🐱
They are stoked to be in their new set up with so much room to play (and make a mess). While these little ones are not yet ready for visitors or adoption, we’ll keep you updated on their progress.
✳️ New kittens cost our organization about $500- $600. This doesn’t include costs if there are complications, special requirements, or if the cat ends up staying with us for an extended time. So, with their arrival is the reality of some hefty bills coming our way. If you’d like to help with the cost of their medical expenses (spays/neuters, microchips, vaccinations, anti-parasitics, probiotics, health checks), litter, food, toys, and everything else, you can send an e-transfer to [email protected] or donate in person during our open hours! 🐾

Once again, a huge thank you to Krystina Lynn Photography. 🐾
It’s not only our animals that we love taking care of, but also the birds that live outside the shelter. 💚
Love birds Edgar and Harriett are two of the cats that constantly get overlooked. Both are very similar in personalities which is why they are such a well matched pair. Edgar and Harriett are quiet, but playful cats who enjoy chasing toys, snuggling, and exploring the catio. Both are a little shy at first making them easy to miss when people come to the shelter. However, after they are given ample time to warm up and feel safe, their true colours shine through.
We are hoping to find a home that would be willing to take both and offer them a life where they can be just who they perfectly are. For this reason, we will be offering a “2 for 1” on adoption fees for Edgar and Harriett.
Please help us find a forever home for them by sharing this post! 💚
Bella knows just how to make the perfect bed for cat naps. Come down today from 12pm-4pm to meet this sweet girl. 💚
Please enjoy this video showing a brief window into the progression of kitten development. From eyes just opening, to learning to play, all the way to the mess of starting solid foods. Portia is doing an amazing job raising her five kittens, Patrick, Pepper, Pipie, Polly, and Purcy.
These guys are still too young to be adopted, but watch our posts for future updates. 🐾
Happy Monday!
Please enjoy watching the cats experience catnip spray as much as we did! 💚
Portia successfully delivered 5 healthy kittens just over a week ago, and is doing such a good job with her babies.
She came to us pregnant through Animal Control after being found as a stray. While we are very happy all of them are safe and cared for with us, it is a great reminder why spaying and neutering your pets is so important.
Make sure your volume is all the way up for this one! We love that transition from milk to solid food, but it can be pretty messy! 🍼
(These kittens are not currently available for adoption.)
Last weekend, we hosted our 9th annual Raise the Woof. We laughed until our faces hurt from great comedy, ate delicious food, bid on so many wonderful silent auction items, got our caricatures done, enjoyed plenty of drinks, and had so much fun! It was a massive success, and we raised over $10,000 for our animals!

✳️ HELP US FIND HARLEY A HOME OR FOSTER!
She has been waiting for over a year….
Harley deserves a life outside of the shelter being loved by a forever family.
Breed: Shepherd x Rottweiler
Sex: Female
Age: 4.5 years
Adoption Fee: $150 (REDUCED)
🔹 Harley is incredibly loving and loyal, and great with people. She would enjoy spending her days being the perfect companion dog on a farm or acreage as a solo pet. Harley loves exploring outside, playing with toys, and her tail never stops! She is a very smart girl, great with commands, and aims to please.
🔸 Due to high prey drive and pickiness with other dogs, a home with no other animals or young children would be ideal. Harley needs an owner who has prior dog experience. She will require someone that is happy to allow her to just be herself with low training expectations.
Please share this post or tell people about Harley to help her finally find a loving home!
To inquire further about Harley, please message us on Facebook or call 780-898-7297. 🐾
💚 Cute alert! 💚
Our sweet Diana safely birthed 5 beautiful kittens a few days ago, and all are doing very well. She is such a fantastic mother, and her babies are growing so quickly.
Make sure to follow our page for more Diana and baby updates!
Jerry was showing off his fly catching skills. Watch until the end for his (not so graceful) moves.
