THE BRITISH COLUMBIA SOCIETY FOR THE PREVENTION OF CRUELTY TO ANIMALS
Our mission: To protect and enhance the quality of life for domestic, farm and wild animals in B.C.
Welcome to the BC SPCA East Kootenay Branch website. Each year our branch helps hundreds of animals find new homes. The BC SPCA currently does not receive any provincial government funding and is completely reliant on community support. We appreciate all of your support, and for making the BC SPCA your first adoption option!

Pigs are intelligent, social animals that love to explore and "root" around. Yet pigs raised on Canadian farms are normally kept inside on concrete floors, with females kept in confining stalls that cause great stress and frustration.
The BC SPCA is seeking public input about pressing animal issues facing B.C. communities as it begins a strategic planning process to guide its programs and services from 2014 to 2018.
A Vancouver man who was arrested and charged in two separate cases involving the videotaped torture of kittens and cats was sentenced to 17 month in jail today.
