My story

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

Eeyore may have earned his name from the solemn little expression he wears, but don't be fooled-beneath that serious face is a confident, endearing boy with plenty of personality. He knows what he wants, whether that's leaning his whole body into you for affection or quietly letting you know he'd prefer a bit of space. Once he trusts you, his love is unmistakable: he gives full‑force head‑butts, follows you around for pets, and happily settles in wherever you are. He's not a fan of being picked up, but he absolutely adores attention on his own terms.

Eeyore came to us from a property with many other cats, some of whom were ill, so he has been exposed to upper respiratory infections. He was hit hard with a URI and now lives with chronic rhinitis-meaning he's a very snotty gentleman who will need a family comfortable helping him wipe his nose when needed. Luckily, he's wonderfully tolerant of the process. Any future feline friends should be up to date on their vaccines, but Eeyore himself would be just as content living with another cat as he would being the only one in the home.

This big, handsome guy could also use a little support with weight loss, and he'll thrive in a home that can offer healthy meals, gentle playtime, and a calm environment where he can feel secure. With his mix of sass, sweetness, and unmistakable charm, Eeyore is ready to bring warmth, character, and companionship to a family who appreciates a cat with a little extra personality.

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.
