WHAT'S HAPPENING

 

    

  

      

Make the BC SPCA your first adoption option!

Each year the BC SPCA finds new homes for thousands of animals - dogs, cats, rabbits, gerbils, hamsters and so many more!

By making the BC SPCA your first adoption option you are helping to ensure that great animals find new homes and have a happy life that they deserve. So many of the animals that come into our care have been surrendered by their previous guardians for different reasons, but deserve a second chance at a new beginning.

If you are looking to find the perfect animal for your family the BC SPCA can help! We have resources available to help you decide what pet might best fit your lifestyle, resources to help you deal with any problems that you may have and information about how to ensure that the pet you choose is not the result of a puppy mill or irresponsible breeder.

Remember -- your new pet will depend on you for his or her life and happiness. Adopting an animal is a responsibility you choose to take on, and requires an informed decision. By making a responsible decision you can help the BC SPCA find a new home for one of the thousands of animals in our care, and your life will be better for it!

Pet on the Net

The BC SPCA features adoptable animals from branches throughout B.C. Our Pet on the Net feature is a fun way for us to highlight animals in our care, but the Pet on the Net is only one of many animals in our care.

 

Search online for adoptable pets

You can find adoptable animals available at any of our BC SPCA branches through our online search engine.

 

Satellite adoption centres

You can meet adoptable animals at more than 22 Bosley's Pet Food Plus locations, Anderson Animal Hospital in Vancouver and many other veterinary clinics and retailers throughout B.C.

 

Five steps to adoption

Make sure that you and your family are ready to adopt using our helpful checklist and resources.

 

Adoption applications

When you visit a BC SPCA shelter you will be asked to fill out a pet adoption application form. The information you provide helps us to match you with the right animal companion for your lifestyle and household.

Drive for Lives

Our animal transfer program relocates animals between branches and adoption centres throughout B.C. The BC SPCA Drive for Lives animal transfer program was created to help save lives -- one road trip at a time!

 

Happy Endings

Read some of our favourite stories from BC SPCA alumni! All of the animals featured in our Happy Endings section have been adopted from one of our 37 shelters and their guardians want to tell their stories. Read the heart-warming "tails" of animals that have been given a second chance.
