Toronto Wildlife Centre (TWC) is a registered charity that strives to help people and wildlife through two main avenues: 1) Wildlife Services - rescuing wildlife in distress, and providing care and medical treatment to sick, injured and orphaned wild animals with the goal of releasing recovered patients back into the wild; 2) Public Education - teaching people about wildlife and wildlife issues via the Wildlife Hotline, presentations and other educational venues. We admit over 4,500 animals for care and treatment each year, and respond to approximately 30,000 wildlife-related calls on our Wildlife Hotline annually. Since opening in 1993, we have treated more than 32,000 wild patients - representatives of more than 200 species of wildlife. Toronto Wildlife Centre works in cooperation with organizations and agencies at local, regional, national and international levels to ensure that the best possible help is available for wild animals and the people who live alongside them.
Pet Patrol is an entirely volunteer-run, non-profit organization in the Kitchener - Waterloo area. We give cats a second chance, and an opportunity for a full life as we are NO KILL. Pet Patrol helps cats that have been abandoned, found ill, or homeless find new families. We are a registered charity and rely solely on donations to cover our extensive Veterinary costs, which can total $40,000 per year. We receive no assistance from our municipality or government. Pet Patrol does not believe an animal should be euthanized if they are unwanted or ill and can regain their health. We do everything in our capacity to make sure that all opportunities for the cat are met. We not only rely on conventional Veterinary care, but also alternative therapies. We also work to educate the community on the proper care of cats, and provide information aimed at reducing the homeless cat population in the KW area.
The Winnipeg Pet Rescue Shelter is Manitoba's first registered charity, "NO-KILL" animal shelter. The Winnipeg Pet Rescue Shelter aspires to a society in which pets are accorded the right to life and are recognized as beings with feelings that have the right to loving care.
We provide a temporary home and veterinary care for stray or abandoned cats. All cats in our care are viral tested, spayed / neutered, vaccinated, de-wormed, de-flead and tattooed prior to adoption. Our cats are well socialized at our centre prior to placement in a forever, caring home. We also assist in public awareness of animal welfare and spay/neuter promotion, provide community support through our in-house programs and education programs for the local schools.
Our main role is to rescue and transport injured or sick animals to a veterinarian or one of the wildlife recovery facilities on Vancouver Island and Salt Spring Island. Our long-term vision is to foster the education of GROWLS volunteers and our community to be more knowledgeable and respectful of our natural world. We do not want to keep wild animals as pets. The goal is to release animals back into the wild. We strive to provide the best care possible and with minimal stress to the animal.
We are a dedicated group of volunteers operating a successful trap, neuter and return program for feral and stray cats since 1999. We rely entirely on private donations to fund our program, which spayed and neutered almost 500 cats in 2011 alone, and socialized and adopted out well over 100 kittens in the same period. We are now raising funds to create an on going low cost spay program for pet cats belonging to people living on public assistance in order to further reduce the number of unwanted kittens born in our community. Further information about our program can be found on our website at www.cowichancatrescue.org

Our members participate in club-organized events that include sledding (both competitive and non-competitive), packing, weight-pulling, ski-joring, and agility.

The Bow Valley SPCA has completed the construction of our innovative No-Kill, No-Cage Adoption Centre – the first of its kind in Canada. The Carla Cumming Sojonky Adoption Centre's design is based on the organization's no-kill, no-cage philosophy. This philosophy requires the environment to be more sensitive to the needs of dogs and cats. Design elements include dog cabins and cat chalets which comfortably accommodate three to five animals, allowing for animal compatibility and in-room visits with people. This creates a more people- and animal-friendly environment. The Bow Valley SCPA’s no-kill, no-cage philosophy extends beyond the Centre design. Now that we are open – we are busy generating greater awareness in humane animal treatment and reducing the number of abandoned animals in the Bow Valley through our adoption services, humane education and spay/neuter programs. Animals cannot help themselves. You can make a difference. Donate to the fund of your choice today.
27 years ago, Kathy Asling found an 8-week-old puppy on the street. She immediately called every possible link to the pup's owners and ran an advertisement in her local newspaper. A reporter who saw the ad called Kathy to write a cover story. Although no owner was ever located, she received almost 200 calls to adopt the puppy. She instinctively screened prospective adopters and conducted home visits. Kathy decided on a home but had names and numbers of several families she felt would provide a loving home to a dog. The next day she visited the local shelter and started 'match making' by contacting the people who had called her looking to adopt. Identifying the need for someone to step up and save the lives of good dogs from being put to death We are 100% volunteer we have no paid staff. Your donations and fundraising are the only sources of income to help us continue to save the live of animals. www.animalguardian.org

Wildlife Rehabilitation CCWR is working towards a Wildlife Custodian Authorization, to be issued by the Ministry of Natural Resources. We are applying for the funding needed to build our intake clinic and animal enclosures in the hope of taking in injured and orphaned fawns and raccoons starting in spring 2010. Public Education Some harm to wildlife can be prevented through public education. CCWR will develop an extensive campaign to inform the public on the role people can play in minimizing the impact humans have on wildlife. Advocacy CCWR believes that we need to respect nature and that all life should have value and meaning. When human industry interferes with the balance of nature, we need to take a responsible approach. CCWR will work with city officials and developers, speaking on behalf of wildlife when its well-being is threatened by land development. Sanctuary Our sanctuary animals continue to receive excellent care for the rest of their lives.
