Toronto Cat Rescue (TCR) is a network of foster homes and volunteers. We are often the last or only hope for a homeless, abandoned, sick or injured cat. Since 1994, TCR has been helping cats to escape situations of abuse, neglect, or euthanasia at a shelter. There are numerous stray cats in and around Toronto. Through a program of spaying/neutering, fostering and adoption, TCR works to reduce this number in a humane and compassionate manner.

All potential adopters are thoroughly checked before we can adopt them a dog.

All of the dogs who join New Hope Dog Rescue are partnered with loving and dedicated foster parents, who open their homes and hearts to these animals in need, and help provide the care they require until they can be matched with adoptive, permanent homes. Every dog receives proper medical care while with New Hope. This will range from the basics (vaccinations, deworming, microchip, spay/neuter), while others will require more extensive care (anything from dental cleaning/extractions, to corrective surgery, to treatment of skin conditions). We rely on donations and support from the community to allow us to cover these medical expenses and to carry out and continue our mission. We are always in need of adopters, foster homes, donors and volunteers. To learn more, visit our website at www.newhoperescue.org.

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.
