VANCOUVER ORPHAN KITTEN RESCUE ASSOCIATION

VOKRA is a no-kill, non-profit, registered charity dedicated to the rescue of cats in the Lower Mainland. VOKRA does not have a shelter. Instead, we provide over 100 individual foster homes throughout the Lower Mainland. In a home environment, our cats are safe and receive lots of love and attention. VOKRA covers all costs and provides ongoing support to foster families. VOKRA's Trap-Neuter-Return team humanely traps feral cats and kittens. Pregnant feral mothers are cared for through birthing and weaning, at which time we spay the mother and socialize the kittens. If the mother cannot be tamed, she is returned to a location where volunteers ensure food and water are available daily, and the cat’s health can be monitored. We also neuter feral male cats, and either adopt them out or release them as appropriate, with the same care arrangements. VOKRA rescued over 1,420 felines in 2009. VOKRA has no paid staff. We are 100% volunteer. Website: www.vokra.ca

Project Sphinx is an animal rescue organization in Montreal (Québec). We rescue abandoned animals and find them responsible, permanent homes, where they will have the chance to lead a good life.

CANADIAN CHIHUAHUA RESCUE & TRANSPORT

The Canadian Chihuahua Rescue and Transport (CCRT) was originally created in July 1999 to respond to the ever-growing need for a breed-specific Chihuahua rescue organization in Canada. Several people, who had met online in a Chihuahua chat group, formalized their desires to help and the CCRT was born. The CCRT now has Regional Coordinators and volunteers in every province who work together to rescue and rehome our very special dogs all across the country. The CCRT endeavours to match homeless Chihuahuas with loving new adoptive homes that have been carefully screened by approved volunteers and to provide follow-up support to new owners. We ensure that all Chihuahuas placed through the CCRT are spayed/ neutered, microchipped and properly vaccinated. We are also committed to humane education and reinforcing the importance of responsible pet ownership. Our fundraising events generate revenue to assist us in every aspect of our mission and statement.

MEADOW LAKE & DISTRICT HUMANE SOCIETY .

We are a Humane Society dedicated to finding homes for stray cats and dogs as well as spreading the word about spay and neuter. We spay and neuter all pets Before they go out to new owners if they are old enough. After a couple of years in existence, we were able to purchase jointly with the Town of Meadow Lake a used kennel building which was moved the summer of 2007 onto a lot in the industrial area of town. As of December 2007 it was set up for interior use. Outdoor pens were set up in 2008. This new building now houses both our adoptable dogs & cats! It is much cleaner, brighter & better built than our previous shelter to house the animals and will serve the town well as both a shelter & pound building. We are 100% volunteer operated. Thanks to the Town of Meadow Lake & the hard working volunteers of MLDHS. See our adoptable pets at www.mldhs.petfinder.com or contact us at mldhs@sasktel.net. We thank you for any donations we receive via Canada Helps.
