Little Mittens Animal Rescue Association

Little Mittens Animal Rescue Association We work to give all animals, domestic and wild, a second chance at life. We are now a Registered Charity with the CRA!

This is achieved through domestic rescue and adoption in Golden and surrounding area and through wildlife rehabilitation through the Kootenays, Columbia Valley, and Revelstoke areas. This means we can now offer tax deductible receipts for your generous donations. If you require one, please make a note of this and include your name and mailing address. You can donate through PayPal on our website,

through e-transfer, or by mail delivery. Through our Domestic Rescue and Adoption programs we work to find homeless animals in the Golden area loving furrever homes. We are also available to help take in rehome animals if circumstances change and they are in need of a new home. For Wildlife Rehabilitation, we cover the Kootenays, Columbia Valley, and Revelstoke areas. Our certified rehabbers work with our veterinarian to give injured and orphaned wild animals a chance to heal, grow, and be released back into the wild.

What does it take to capture a swan? A solid team, some watercraft, and a whole lot of improvising!

We had heard about this swan a couple of weeks back hanging out in a pond near Parson. As it was odd for it to be sticking around, we monitored and noticed quickly that something was definitely wrong with one of its wings.

Lots of discussion was had in the following days deciding the safest method for capture. Although the pond was shallow, the ice was thin and the mud was thick! However when the cold snap hit, we had to take action fast.

With a great team, plans A/B/C in our pocket, and strong safety plans, we were able to successfully capture the swan!

Unfortunately the wing injury doesn’t look good but there is a small chance it could be repairable with surgery. We’ll be anxiously waiting to hear what the veterinary exam and x-rays indicate ❤️‍🩹

To help support this swan and other animals, both domestic and wild, head to our website donation page - every little bit counts and is much appreciated ♥️ ♥️

Meet our two little terrors 😉

Mabel and Charley!

🐶Mabel is approximately 4 months old.
She is your classic husky/malamute mutt mix. She loves to make noise and sing many songs. Mabel loves to chew on bones, sticks and toys.
She will require a TON of exercise and will likely grow to be quite big. Mabel is still learning she is no longer fighting for her food and devours it very fast. We recommend doing research on husky and malamutes before adopting !

🐶Charley is approximately 3 months. He appears to be a husky, collie mutt mix. He too loves to sing to his people. He loves to play fight with his “sister” Mabel. He is also learning he doesn’t need to swallow his food in seconds. Both puppies have been around other dogs, amazing with kids, met cats and even goats.

🐶 Both have so very much love to give!

Please note these two will both be foster to adopt until spayed and neutered! 🐶

If interested please go to littlemittens.org and fill out a dog adoption application!

FOSTER OR FOSTER TO ADOPT NEEDED 🐾🐾

Koda (4 years old) and Loki (3 years) are looking for a foster or foster to adopt placement! They are both neutered males, unknown mixed breeds, and up to date on their shots. Koda is more energetic and eager to please. Loki is more laid-back and affectionate.

Both dogs are kennel-trained, house-trained, good with other dogs and good with all people (including kids) but have not had any time with cats.

They are quite bonded so keeping them together would be ideal however we are on a tight timeline and need to find homes.

If you are able to take in one, or ideally both, of these handsome pups, please fill out a foster application on our website and reach out ♥️

Silent Auction bidders!
We are sorting through bid sheets today and will be contacting those with the highest bids tomorrow 🙂

Thank you for the fun night 💃

Freedom!!! Our last batch of orphaned ducklings have grown up and been released.

Check out this page for all of the different options to give - from donating money to ordering supplies and goods from our wish list ♥️ https://littlemittens.org/donate/ #freedomfriday #rescuerehabrelease #wildliferescue

Freedom!! This Canada Goose arrived at our facility in the fall of 2023. We aren't sure exactly what happened but it was unsteady on it's feet and unable to fly. After some time and care throughout the winter, we finally got to release it ❤ If you find an animal in distress, please call us BEFORE taking any action at 250-939-8085 and we will help with next steps! There are many ways you can support animals in our care - check out our website to learn how: https://littlemittens.org/donate/ ❤ #wildliferescue #canadagoose #wildliferehab #freedomfriday #rescuerehabrelease

Nom nom nom 🤤🦉 This little Pygmy Owl needed a little bit of help with mealtime after being hit by a car. It doesn’t appear that anything was broken so hopefully with some time and care it will be ready to go back into the wild! We are so grateful that the drivers of the car stopped, scooped it into a box and called us as soon as they got service ♥️ If you find an injured or orphaned animal, call us and we will provide next steps! Visit our website (www.littlemittens.org) to learn about how you can support the animals in our care ♥️ #wildliferescue #wildliferehab #rescuerehabrelease #pygmyow #owlsofinstagram

Freedom!!! Merlins are small falcons that mainly catch their meals in mid-flight. Unfortunately in urban areas, this can lead to them hitting windows as they swoop for a songbird. We’re not sure if this is what happened to this bird but we are grateful that the finders called for help! A local volunteer picked the bird up and transport to our friends at OWL Orphaned Wildlife Rehabilitation Society was quickly arranged. After just over two months of expert care with them, it was returned to the location it was found for release ♥️ We are so grateful to be able to work with the team at OWL to help give beautiful birds like this a second chance at life! #wildliferescue #wildliferehab #rescuerehabrelease #falcon #birdsofprey #freedomfriday

This is Max, Aka Moose! Moose wanted to support his favourite animal rescue by making his momma buy him a smile cookie at Timmy’s! We should all be more like Moose! Buy a cookie and support Little Mittens 🦊🐦🐔🐥🐣🦆🦅🐱🐶🐭🐹🐰🐷🐮🐸🦄🐴

Update: we are all set! Thank you Golden! We are looking for 2-3 more market-type tents for our Christmas Wonderland event on Sunday. Does anyone have one they would be willing to lend to us!? Thank you and hope to see you there ♥️
