*** Update Scoob has been found safely ❤️❤️***

Tigey cannot wait to find his new family. He was an oopsy litter so he was surrendered to find a new home.

Tigey is 6 weeks old and had to be separated from mom and his sister to prevent more unwanted pregnancies. He is very sweet and handles well. He likes his lettuce and exploring his surroundings at his own pace.

Transfer Day today was a bit emotional as we said our farewells and good lucks to Rose, Luigi, and Mew.

We wish Rose all the best in BC SPCA Victoria, we hope she finds her perfect match real soon in the big city ❤️. Luigi and Mew went to BC SPCA Cowichan, where we hope they flourish and find some great homes.

06/11/2024

Good Girl Rose 🌹

She has been patiently waiting 130 days with hardly any interest... She loves people, animals not so much.

Rose loves going for walks, playing with the hose, and playing "How many toys can i destroy today" game.

Rose is awaiting her furever home, we may have her on transfer this week. Stay tuned!

Scrolling through facebook tonight and saw a post that there were multiple vehicles spotted with dogs in them today... Every year we have the same problem :(

It is always best to leave your pet at home if you need to go to the store. Sometimes its not possible and they need to come. If thats the case, make sure you leave someone in the car to monitor them and take the necessary measures if showing signs of heatstroke.

Please remember it only takes 10 minutes to lose your best friend. Here is some more tips on what to do if you see a dog in a vehicle on a hot day:

❤️Today is National Best Friends day ❤️

We have a few lovely critters who would make a great BFF:

Rose loves to spend time with you, and loves to win tug o' war with her friends

Mew cant wait to get away from her kids and finally relax, perhaps you can relate??

Luigi enjoys a relaxing spa day, and much prefers his own space... who doesnt??

Winnie also enjoys her quiet time away from the children, she loves baking biscuits

Moe is one of the boys, he loves to have fun and play with his brothers.

Hopefully one of these beautiful friends speaks to you! Celebrate with your best friends today :) we are open today until 4pm.

**Looks like they are on transfer tomorrow, fingers crossed this is their chance 🙂 **

This delightful pair are still actively looking for a loving forever home after 45 days in care ❤️❤️

Sinatra is a special boy, at 7 years old, he is a pretty chill guy who loves a good snuggle. He was diagnosed with FIV when he was younger, but he is a lover, not a fighter and so he finds comfort in his energetic sidekick, Starza.

Starza is still a kitten, she loves bouncing all over the place and pouncing on all her toys. Her favourite toy of all though, is her big brothers tail 😹.

They may seem like an odd pair, but they are the sweetest!! Indoor only home, no other cats, not sure about dogs, kids welcome.

Want to adopt?? Here is the link: https://spca.bc.ca/survey/cat-adoption-application-alberni/

Cant adopt but want to help?? We are still raising donations towards their medical bills, here is the link for that: https://medical.spca.bc.ca/participant/2912033/2500/

05/28/2024

This is certainly our busy season! We can use some more foster homes to help more animals out during this busy season. We are at capacity for cats and have a number already in foster to help make space.

If you would like to help make a difference, please consider fostering! We provide all the supplies and food needed, you supply a safe space and the love. Together we can help more of these amazing animals find new homes.

If interested, please apply here to become a foster:

What a stunning boy! We all have fallen in love with Scoob, you will too!

Scoob arrived in our care not really knowing how to "dog"- not great on leash, not sure about indoor life, doesnt know what to do with toys, etc. we are working on desensitizing him and getting him used to things like walking on harness, which is going great!

Scoob cant wait to go hiking and swimming with his new people, this adventure seeker will be a fun addition to an active household. To learn more about Scoob, please visit: https://adopt.spca.bc.ca/pets/744923/

Well Rowdy is once again on the search, after a few applications backed out :( He is a big sucky boy who just wants a home and a person to love up on. After 82 days in care, we dont want to see him reach triple digits, please help us out! Rowdy is not great with cats, has a couple doggy friends here, and loves his people time.

Persephone is really hoping this may be her week to find a loving home... at 10 months old, she is really hoping to find a new home before she turns a year old... This sweet girl has had a hard time finding a home because of her Upper Respiratory. Our adoption room has been on quarantine because of it, and while it is contagious to other cats in direct contact, we have had no luck which is such a shame as she is such a nice cat!!! If you dont have another kitty at home and wish to help a lovely girl out, here is a wonderful, affectionate kitty. Persephone is only one of 5 cats/kittens in the adoption room who are affected. We arent able to use this room until these guys get adopted! Help us find them homes during our adoption promotion this week! Visit www.spca.bc.ca/adopt to view all adoptable animals!

Sweet as the fruit of her namesake, here is Watermelon! She is a 6 month old Caucasian Shepherd who is looking for her furever home. She came in with her sister Pineapple (adopted) and they were both in need of a lot of work. Undersocialized and only ever knew the property they grew up on. We have been helping her get used to a lot of new things, such as other dogs, people, and leash training. This beautiful girl is already around 30kg, she will only get bigger, these dogs are guardian dogs. Please do some research on the breed before applying, they are not apartment dogs haha. Watermelon 🍉: https://adopt.spca.bc.ca/pets/619735/?from_search=true

Miss Wanda was really hoping my fingers were a tasty treat, perhaps you could win her over with some tasty treats. This beautiful calico is in search of a loving home of her own, she is one of our special adoptions during this adoption promotion. All our adoptable animals are currently half price, and Wanda and Binx will be even more reduced to help find them the right homes! Perhaps she will get lucky this week! Help spread the word, Wanda is a lovely girl. Here is her profile: https://adopt.spca.bc.ca/pets/605145/

This whole crew has been with us too long!! These kittens were a week or 2 old when we first got them, they are now 3 months old... Unfortunately they caught the upper respiratory virus that has our adoption room on quarantine. They are normal kittens (and mom), and just need to move on and find families to live and thrive in. Their cat cold has the potential to be contagious to other cats, but the chances are lessened if existing cats are up to date on vaccines. We really want to get these sweet kitties out of shelter and in their new furever homes, please help us!! We currently have a half price adoption promotion going on until Nov 3rd.

**Adopted!** Skully hates any holiday that doesn't involve her! We are closed today for Labour Day, enjoy your day!! Skully has been overlooked by many adopters, but she is very sweet and sassy. She looks forward to meeting any potential adopters this week between 12-4! Skully: https://adopt.spca.bc.ca/pets/560181/?from_search=true

Sweet Skully is still looking for a wonderful family to take her home! She is social, affectionate & loves to chat. Skully is on a special diet called Z/D diet, its an allergy diet. Other than that and a flea allergy, she is healthy and ready to mingle. https://adopt.spca.bc.ca/pets/560181/?from_search=true
