Grayson is from the house of 100 cats. He’s lived his six years of life in a garage and are hoping to not have to return him to living in the garage. He’s shy with new people and will take time to warm up, but he was affected with his feeder. Grayson is getting his dental early May, he’s also neutered and has received his FRCP vaccine and booster and have been dewormed. There is no adoption fee for Grayson, but we would like to find him a good home that will be patient and loving for this poor boy. 
Apply online if you are able to give him a good home.

Prosecco (approx 4 years old) lived in the basement in the house of 100 cats. Although she is shy at first , she warms up quickly and will melt your heart.

Prosecco had all her teeth removed aside from her canines. This will help her inflame gums and give her much relief. She can still eat kibble, but loves her wet food; wet food is healthier for cats anyway. As you will see in the video, she has a scuffed up nose and dirt around the eyes. The scuffed up nose is from injuring herself in a carrier. She HATES to be transported in a box, we find that a cloth carrier prevents more significant injuries. She also has chronic leaky eyes, although not diagnosed it’s likely a herpes virus, which in my experience over the years is quite insignificant. This is not an infection and does not need any medicine. Typically an stress-free environment, a healthy diet, and some immune boosters helps quite a bit.

Prosecco is considered a compassionate adoption, which means there is no adoption fee for her. The ideal home for Prosecco would be a small home or apartment. She gets along well with other friendly felines, but would also be fine as a solo pet. Ideally the home would have no excitable dogs, dominant cats, or young children. All she needs is a stable loving environment.

If you feel you can provide Prosecco a forever home please apply online. www.adoptmecatrescue.ca.

Veterinary care is an essential component of a responsible rescue and it is the cornerstone of animal health.

Veterinary services can be costly! Recently, the CBC and Fifth Estate presented exposés that have highlighted these challenges (search online for those stories).

We have had an influx of messages lately from cat adopters who are also sounding the alarm on the shocking charges they have faced.

As a word of caution:

1. BPCR advises pet owners to research their vet clinic -is it Canadian-owned, private or part of a corporate group? (see link below)
2. ask to see a price list prior to treatments
3. If the quote is above your threshold, it’s okay to seek a second opinion
4. Remember that veterinary clinics are a profit based business and customers must make responsible choices based on their pet’s needs but also their personal financial situation
5. There are several cost-effective spay/neuter clinics and rabies vaccine clinics running in our area.
6. Good nutrition and keeping your cat indoors may be effective ways to prevent some of the causes of costly trips to the vet.
7. It’s okay to seek advice from others whose pet may have experienced a similar diagnosis. Compare their veterinary strategy for success against the advice you’ve been given.

In short, we love our vets and couldn’t do what we do without their services. Like all business models, not all services suit every need and not every company is equal. Your pet’s health challenges can be scary but don’t be afraid to ask questions, do research and advocate for your pocketbook as well as your animal’s health.
