Through scientific expertise, strategic alliances, outreach programs, and innovative projects, Watershed Watch is at the forefront in sounding the alarm on threats to salmon, and in prompting action to help them. Watershed Watch’s many years of experience with the issues and with government agencies, uniquely position it to identify and act on existing and emerging threats to wild salmon. It has been instrumental in drawing public attention to such key issues as: the threat posed by sea lice to wild salmon; water management; unsustainable harvesting; and the long-term benefits of saving wild salmon. It is now focusing on three new issues: the impact of ‘green’ power projects; First Nations’ monitoring of salmon and salmon habitat; and the potential impacts of groundwater withdrawal on wild salmon. BC’s wild salmon face an uncertain future, and they need help. Make your voice count by joining with Watershed Watch to protect wild salmon.

CatNap is a volunteer non-profit registered society that has been helping abandoned and homeless cats in Nanaimo, BC since 1998. Every year, our group gives a second chance in life to over 200 domestic and feral cats. Our mandate is to rescue abandoned cats/kittens, have them spayed or neutered, provide medical attention, and find them good loving homes. This helps prevent unwanted litters and reduce further suffering for these animals. After spaying or neutering, feral (wild) cats are released back to their original location if shelter, food, and water can be provided daily. We rely solely on financial donations and fundraising events. With no administrative overhead, all money raised is used for spaying/neutering, food/litter, obtaining medical attention and caring for these cats. Please visit us at www.catnapsociety.com or CatNap Society on Facebook for more information about us.
