We are still looking for a landing pad for the two kitties that were orphaned last weekend. They need a caring soul with a quiet household to get them over their recent trauma. They are a little lost with the changes. A spare bedroom, where they can rest and chill and meet new people slowly would be ideal. We are full and looking for community assistance. CAWES will supply food, litter and anything else they need.

Are you that special person?

We are trying to find out if this little guy has a home? He looks to be a young intact male. He is very skinny and has been spending a lot of time visiting and feeding at a house that isn't his own. The house is on the corner of Oceanview and Miller.

He obviously needs a little help as he is matted and looks to have a lot of fleas. If you know him or at least know where he lives could you please reach out here or call 604 947 2555 so we can get him some help. You can also email at [email protected] Thank you 💙

While the last few hours of the Dog Of The Year count down and I am in "The proverbial DOGHOUSE" for deleting the front runner from the poll I am turning my attention to other things to release some of the angst.

I have a serious and somewhat urgent need to find a foster or a foster to adopt situation for an 8 year old Russian Blue

Gracie Blue, an 8 year-old Russian Blue who recently lost her loving mom. Gracie is full of love - very affectionate and has a super fun personality. She has a funny little Grinch-who-stole-Christmas face. Gracie (aka Little Gray Kitty, Pumpkin, Pumpy, Angel) has been happily living in an apartment for the last few years and prior to that was living in a house with three large dogs.

There is lots more to know about Gracie so please do give me a call or send an email to [email protected] if you would like to meet her. She is not on the island yet but should be here very shortly if we can finalize a foster home for her

6. Milagros

Nominated by the wonderful woman, who saved Mila from abuse (Anne Margaret) and neglect in Mexico, Mila came to Bowen in October of 2023. She was found on the streets, with her puppy and was being harassed by locals so much so that she now is afraid of men's feet!! But she found so much love and affection from her new mum here and the community of Bowen Island and will never have to scrounge for food again. Named Milagros (miracle in Spanish) for the miracle that she survived the ordeal but is affectionately known as Mila. She loves a lap and will often ask to sit with you even if she just met you. She is a Miracle and a joy.

NOMINEE for Dog of the Year 2024
2. SHAY

Chances are you’ve seen Shay at the grocery store or pharmacy or post office or beach or upstairs on the ferry or almost anywhere else on Bowen, since as a Certified Hearing Dog, she accompanies Emily everywhere she goes Shay listens for sounds to which and alerts Emily when needed. For example, she alerted her to a dump truck backing up behind her in the library parking lot, saving her from serious injury. WELL DONE SHAY

But its not all work and no play for Shay. If you were having a bad day she would offer a snuggle to enable you to absorb as much Vitamin Shay as you need. Or you might just have smiled to see Shay walking by Emily's side, tail swinging happily. Though it’s not part of her work, the joy Shay spreads by just being her quietly cheerful self is infectious, particularly in potentially stressful situations like medical waiting rooms.

1. MOSER

Moser is a 12 years old Labradoodle and has lived his whole life on Bowen since he was 2 months old. Not only is he exceptionally beautiful, with a sweet, brown nose, golden eyes, and long eyelashes, he is very well behaved. Moser loves people

He has been a great ambassador for Bowen Island, as he has greeted many tourists (who adore him), and invoked many friendly conversations. He is also well behaved at events and parties and .will not steal food off of a table—not even a coffee table.

It was a big day for our little kittens “Thunder and Lightening”. Today was the day they went to their forever home.

In 26 days with us they went from feral, scared and hiding to loved, playful and confident little beings, all set for their new life.

Mila and I will miss them very much but we will hopefully have some of their siblings or cousins soon. We hope to give as many as possible a chance for a happy and safe life with people that love them. ♥️♥️

UPDATE: Thanks everyone - we have located his family and as expected he is NOT a stray. THANKS to West Van SPCA for reaching out to us or he may have been gone forever. He will be back on Bowen and with his family ASAP

Does anyone know this cat? He was taken to West Van SPCA from Bowen as a stray and they have reached out to us as they doubt he is really a stray. Is he really a stray or is someone misto SPCA sing him ?

From day one to now in just two weeks and one day “Little Lightning” has transformed from a petrified feral kitten who had never felt human touch to a beautiful loving little guy. He and his sister “Thunder” are looking for the best home ever on the island.

Please contact Kim if you can open your hearts and your homes to these two ♥️. 604 947 2555. [email protected].

And then these two came last night. They will be with us for a while so we can make sure they are happy and healthy. They are sweet natured but have not been handled. We aim to rectify that with lots of hugs and kisses. There’s no shortage of people who want to snuggle them.

They are littermates and preference will be given to someone who could give them a home together. We’re letting them just be for now (apart from feeding and snuggling) but will determine gender in the next day or so.

Please email Kim at [email protected] if you think you would like to give them a forever home. ♥️

01/07/2024

These little darlings came to us a couple of days ago. They are looking for a new permanent home once they’ve had a little time to relax and destress.

I don’t think they have been handled too much but with care and compassion they will come around. If you can give them a loving new home please contact Kim at [email protected].

Not really suited for young children but a compassionate pre-teen could work wonders. ♥️

It is cold here in the evenings and Mindy is a small chihuahua.. Pls share. It only takes 1 person to see her . 💔💔

Wow what an amazing rescue story.. Everyone thinks and says my dog is special… Well this is Gus. We rescued him from a kill shelter in California. He is 2.5 yrs young and NO medical. Imagine someone dumped this beautiful boy. Gus touched the hearts of everyone that helped save him. He really is a special dog.. not at all marred by his past. We knew he had to have a special home for a special dog. @shark.zombie is the special furever home for Gus.. Thank you to all the great team whom none of us knew each other ,that kicked butt to save Gus .. You are all amazing dedicated women with huge hearts . It just shows when we ALL work together we can do ANYTHING.. There are so many dogs like Gus in shelters. Pls give them a chance - rescue ,adopt & Don’t shop. ❤️🐾🐾🐾

@dmoodyproject & her rescue partner @d.valdovinos WOW. We can not thank you enough for ALL that you do for the dogs .. you are fighting every day to help these poor babies that people have just thrown away . Respect ❤️❤️❤️

We just drew the winner of the 50/50 prize. The lucky winner was Tammy Sanhedrai. She is the winner of $367. And not the $355 I stated in the video. We found $22 in coin at the bottom of the jar. 😁 Thanks to Darryl for selling the tickets and for all of you that bought a ticket. More funds to help us help the animals. Special thanks to the Bowen Co-Ed ski pitch league for boosting the pot at the last minute ❤️❤️
