✨ 2025 - a year in review.
ICAN is a no-cage, registered non-profit charity that is volunteer-driven, community-supported, and dedicated to creating better futures for cats and kittens across the East Kootenays. Every rescue, every intake, every medical case, every adoption, and every second chance this year happened because people like you chose to care.
75 cats and kittens were surrendered and welcomed
60 cats and kittens found a new loving forever home
3-yard cats were medically assisted (Kodak, Phantom, & Fiddler), and 2 were adopted.
5 cats were reunited with their owners
7 amazing foster families caring for neonates to palliative care
5 cats were rescued from the euthanasia list
1 Entropion Eye Surgery for Phantom
1 Enucleation surgery for Olive
Over 10,000 volunteer and foster hours were logged
Over $19,000 in Vet bills were paid.
Bottle & can donations raised over $21,000 to help with Veterinary bills, vaccinations, spaying and neutering, special dietary requirements and numerous surgeries and general care.
Together, we are shaping the future for cats in need — one life at a time since 2007. Over 2,000 animals have been rescued.
