My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Mickey and Minnie! These two shy girls are looking for their own forever home together. They're currently in a foster home as they were quite scared when they arrived in shelter, but they're slowly coming out of their shells now! Their foster parent has noted that Minnie seems to be the braver of the two, but they will both take food from your hand now and are more curious of their surroundings. Mickey and Minnie will need a calm, loving home with someone who will be willing to work on their socialization and will have a nice set up for them to run around. If you think you could offer Mickey and Minnie the greatest home ever, then fill out an application for them online on the BC SPCA website or email the Vancouver SPCA: vancouver@spca.bc.ca
Mickey and Minnie love humans and cuddles. They go on regular trips to the garden. They eat out of your hand, and although are hard to catch, they love snuggles and cuddles.

More about this shelter

Our Mission:



The BC SPCA is a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting and enhancing the quality of life for domestic, farm and wild animals in British Columbia. Through its 36 branches located around BC and its provincial office in Vancouver, the BC SPCA provides a wide range of services for more than 53,000 homeless, abused, and abandoned animals around the province. The BC SPCA was created under the auspices of the provincial Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act, and is the only animal welfare organization in BC which has the authority to enforce laws relating to animal cruelty and to prepare cases for Crown Counsel for the prosecution of individuals who inflict suffering on animals.

Our Charter:



The BC SPCA Charter is the foundation that guides the work we do:

Whereas:

The world is inhabited by many species sharing a common ecosystem of air, earth, and water. We recognize and value our interconnectedness with all animals.

Therefore:

The BC Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is dedicated to protecting and enhancing the quality of life for the animals of the world we share.



We pledge our energies to inspire and mobilize society to create a world in which all animals, who depend on humans for their well-being, experience, as a minimum, five essential freedoms:



1. Freedom from hunger and thirst

2. Freedom from pain, injury, and disease

3. Freedom from distress

4. Freedom from discomfort

5. Freedom to express behaviours that promote well-being.
