My story

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

Ruby is a lovely girl awaiting her furrever home!

Ruby is a quiet and calm girl, slow and a bit shy to start she warms up with lots of love and pets!

Some observations from the foster:

She still spends the majority of her time tucked away in her box but does seem more comfortable every day. She will even "chat" with me now when I pet her and she has the cutest little meows and chirps. She is really unique looking, very pretty colouring with a copper tint and such a sweet face. I think she will make a wonderful companion for someone with a bit of patience to let her settle in and get comfortable.

As she came to us as a stray we are unsure how she would do with other pets, but we think a calm environment would be best suited for this sweet girl.
She may do well with another calm cat who would embrace her shy nature.

Please submit an application online if I am currently in foster or if you would like to save some time when you come visit. While we do welcome online applications, in person meets have top priority.

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.
