Cat Lovers Rescue Group is a non-profit, charitable organization whose focus is the rescue of stray and homeless cats. We adhere to a strict no kill policy and provide necessary humane and caring support until placement in a permanent loving home can be arranged. In the absence of placement in a home, we also arrange for cats to be sheltered in a safe, clean, maintained outside environment.

Okanagan Collie Rescue is a registered non-profit society which operates primarily in British Columbia and Alberta. Because the historical roots of the society are in the Okanagan, we have retained the name. OCR is dedicated to providing shelter and care to purebred and mixed-breed collies who have been abandoned or place into shelters. Our goal is to match these ‘castaway’ collies with families who will provide a safe, loving and permanent home. We have successfully placed collies of all ages - from young adults to seniors requiring a safe haven for their golden years. OCR fosters its rescued collies in private homes throughout British Columbia and Alberta, and assists with transportation and placement of collies from other areas of Canada and the United States.

Volunteer-run, we are dependent on public donations to fund programs. There is no shelter facility at this time: we run a network of foster homes. Many animals are left to fend for themselves without shelter or food. Some are ferals, others were abused, abandoned or neglected animals, who were lucky enough to survive prior to our intervention. Many are the product of people who were not responsible enough to have their animals fixed. Kittens and puppies have been found in trash bags and sealed boxes in garbage dumpsters. They were deemed disposable. How tragic that such a low value is placed on life in our society and that certain people cannot overcome their ignorance and insensitivity, to find some decency within themselves. Their callous acts reflect on us all: Tolerance for either their deliberate brutality or mindless indifference should not be allowed to continue.

We are a no-kill organization that relies on volunteers to give every cat that enters our adoption program the time, patience, love and cuddles they need until their forever homes can be found. Each cat is vet checked, tested for Feline Leukemia, vaccinated, dewormed, spayed or neutered, and tattoo'ed or microchipped. Our love knows no age limit, and we take in newborns to seniors. We sincerely thank all those who have supported us and opened their hearts and homes! We truly feel our family extends with every adoption.

We are a group of volunteers and foster homes dedicated to the rescue of animals in need. We do not have a shelter. Every foster home that has space is one more animal that can be saved from the street, going in to a shelter or euthanasia.

"After the Rescue" The financial reality

We are a volunteer-operated, not-for-profit charity. Since the needs of the dogs that come to us are paramount, we match each dog to a potential adopter based on its needs and how well that person meets those needs. For this reason, all adopters must complete an extensive questionnaire and undergo a home and property visit prior to an adoption being approved. Except in extenuating circumstances, our dogs live with foster families until adopted. These families work hard to ensure the dogs in their care get all of the love and attention needed to help them recover from their previous lives and prepare them for life with a new family. Prior to adoption, our dogs are spayed/neutered and their vaccines updated. All other medical needs are taken care of as well. Sometimes this includes extensive surgery and after care. Without donor support this wouldn't be possible. We are grateful for their generosity. Please visit us at www.LeoRescueCanada.com

Since 1990, the David Suzuki Foundation has worked to find ways for society to live in balance with the natural world that sustains us. Focusing on four program areas – oceans and sustainable fishing, climate change and clean energy, sustainability, and the Nature Challenge - the Foundation uses science and education to promote solutions that conserve nature and help achieve sustainability within a generation.

The Carleton County Animal Shelter was founded on the belief that no animal should have to go hungry, be homeless or live in fear or pain. CCAS believes that all animals deserve to be treated with dignity, kindness, and respect and provided with care that increases their opportunity for a safe life. Founded in 1995, CCAS has rescued and re-homed hundreds of cats and dogs each year. We are a non-profit organization, run by a group of dedicated volunteers and caring staff (made up of 1 shelter manager and 2 part time shelter attendants). We are funded solely by donations made by the public and therefore rely on the generosity of our supporters. No donation is too small or insignificant...every penny will be put to good use (food, shelter, medications & vaccinations, and most importantly spays/neuters). Thank you for your generosity.
