Who we are and what we do

Our main mandate is spaying and neutering, so we provide financial support to low income families with these costs.   We also provide much needed assistance and services including:

• Paying for spay/neuter and vet costs for abandoned and unwanted animals.
• Financial assistance for spay/neuter costs to low income families.
• Assisting the CRD Pound with vet costs for stray and abandoned animals.
• Assisting with boarding and vet costs for pets from people on the streets and women and children going into transition houses.
• Foster and adoption program to help find loving homes for stray and abandoned animals when foster homes are available.
• Feeding, trapping, spaying/neutering feral cat colonies throughout Victoria.  Re-homing and taming the feral kittens when possible.
• Funding and rehabilitating injured and rescued animals when resources permit.
• Promoting animal welfare by setting a good example, assisting with spay/neuter costs and educating the public on the importance on spaying and neutering.
• Being a member of the Regional Emergency Planning Committee for Animals.
