Nova Scotia SPCA - Queens Foster

Nova Scotia SPCA - Queens Foster The Queens Branch was formed in 1994 and is a foster based branch that offers fostering, adoption and educational programs. We can help.

The Nova Scotia SPCA accepts animals into its care regardless of their age or health. We also follow no-kill principles which means we do not euthanize animals for space. Unexpected life situations happen and the SPCA strives to be approachable, non-judgemental and understanding. On average, healthy and friendly animals are adopted into loving families in less than two weeks! We take in animals by

appointment only so please call ahead. You simply have to call and arrange an appointment so the shelter can learn about what is the most suitable type of home for your pet. The appointment also allows the shelter to prepare a cozy space for your pet to make the transition as smooth as possible. We understand how difficult it is to surrender a pet and thank all owners who are able to make the best decision for their pet.

We’re back with Season 3 of the Nova Scotia SPCA PAW’dcast! 🤩 And we’re excited to start with a fun episode about how we need to nap more.

Well, we’re not napping more. Our doggo friends are. This episode is all about why nap time is beneficial and what Operation Hit Snooze is. 💤 Any guesses?

Also, we’d like to know what type of music you think each animal would listen to during nap time. Tell us in the comments. ⬇️

Apparently, reggae makes it on a dog’s playlist. Who would have thought? 🤔

It’s New Year’s Eve! 🥂

Hey, it’s me, Tuxie! There’s still time to fetch one last good deed for the year! Donate before midnight to help more pets in need and receive your 2024 charitable tax receipt. www.novascotiaspca.ca/donate

As we say fur-well to 2024, let’s paws and reflect on an amazing year filled with wagging tails, gentle purrs, and second chances. You changed lives for thousands of pets in Nova Scotia. Thank you for giving my furry friends hope, healing, and homes – we couldn’t be more grateful! 💖

Now, let’s celebrate the kindness and compassion that made this year unforgettable! Whether you’ve got a playful pup, a purring companion, or just a big heart for animals, let’s finish the year with some fun. Share your favourite 2024 pet picture in the comments – we’d love to see your paw-some friends! 🐶🐱

Let’s start with me! 🎩 As my name suggests, I’m all dressed up and ready to ring in 2025 in style – because who does a tuxedo better than me? I’m a sweet little kitty at our Cape Breton shelter, and I’d love to be your dapper companion in the new year. Come meet me and many of my other furry friends at our six Nova Scotia SPCA shelters.

Here’s to a tail-wagging, whisker-tingling 2025 filled with love, joy, and new beginnings for every pet in need. See you next year!



(P.S. Please remember that many of my furry friends have extreme anxiety and panic when they hear fireworks. Running away from the noise is a survival instinct, and many friends go missing. It’s best to keep your pet inside at home, so they are safe and secure.)

I’m wagging my tail so fast it might take off because I’ve got some exciting news to share! There’s still time to make a difference this PAW-liday season. 🐶✨

Here’s the deal: Every treat, toy, and tail wag I’ve ever had is thanks to big-hearted humans like YOU. Your donations help the SPCA give animals like me warm beds, full bellies, and all the love and care we could ever dream of. 💕

And we’re not done yet! If you donate before the end of the year, you’ll get your 2024 charitable tax receipt for donations of $20 or more – how paw-some is that? 🦴 Plus, you’ll help even more animals start the new year with hope in their hearts and wags in their tails.

Thank you for being my hero. You’ve made this the best PAWliday season ever!

Love and slobbery kisses,
Your furry friend at the SPCA 🐕💕

When I first came to the SPCA, I was just a scared kitty with no cozy lap to curl up on. But because of amazing humans like you, I found a safe place to land, with treats, toys, and so much love. Now I spend my days purring up a storm and dreaming of adventures! 🐱

But not every kitty has found their happy ending yet. That’s where you come in!

So, let’s make some magic happen! Click here: www.novascotiaspca.ca/donate and help us whisker in the new year with hope and love for every paw in need. ⬅

Our Story

Proudly following open-admission and no-kill principles, the Nova Scotia SPCA is a registered charity that helps companion animals in need. Every year, more than 16,000 pets are helped through animal rescue, progressive programs, and rehoming opportunities.

Some pets were abandoned, injured, homeless or abused… but they all deserve a second chance.

We work one-on-one with them to rebuild their trust, fully vet them so they are safe and healthy, and give around-the-clock care until they find their forever family.

We do not receive any government funding for our shelters throughout the province. 100% of the money raised in each community stays in that community to help local pets in need. Donate today to make a difference here.
