Lake Cowichan Animal Rescue

Home

The Society advocates for responsible, respectful and compassionate care of animals within our community; collaborates with other rescue organizations & resources to meet the needs of homeless animals; ensures sterilization of all animals prior to adoption; and participates in public education.

To ensure animals from our society do not contribute to increasing the local population, the society pays for the veterinary services to neuter and spay the animals before reintroducing them to their environment.

Adoptions:

Lake Cowichan Animal Rescue Society offers cats, kittens, dogs,  puppies and other pets for adoption when available.  All animals are altered, tattooed, immunized and in good health.  Adoption fees apply. 
 

Relinquishment

Many of the animals that Lake Cowichan Animal Rescue  provides care for and eventually re-home, come to the society through  relinquishment.  Pet owners who find that they can no longer provide for an animal seek assistance to find a new home for their pet.  Stray cats and dogs  needing permanent homes find their way to us usually with a little help  from their human friends.  Unwanted kittens and puppies need new homes, too.
 
If you know of an animal in need of a home please help. There is no charge for this service.

Feral Cat Rescue

Many of the cats that come to be in the society's care are strays, belonging to what are known as "door-step colonies".  These are animals that come regularly to the same house for food.  Sometimes these cats are very shy, sometimes feral (wild), and sometimes very tame.  Those that are tame or just shy are adoptable and after being spayed or neutered and vaccinated suitable homes are found.   Feral members of the colony are caught using live traps then altered, immunized and released.
