Donations

If you wish to support us, please consider a monetary donation to help with spay, neuter and veterinary costs as we do NOT adopt out any cat or dog until it is spayed or neutered and in good health.

We are a registered charitable organization and as such are able to issue a charitable tax receipt for any monetary donations.

We do get a small discount from our veterinary clinics which we greatly appreciate but we have many other costs as well. 

Donations to the Alberta SPCA are strictly slated for the Alberta SPCA. They are NOT distributed to the many other SPCAs around Alberta.

All SPCAs are individual independent organizations with their own policies, procedures and methods.  We do try to support and recommend other SPCA’s and work together out of courtesy and respect for all that we know we do and for the better good of the animals we are helping.

Our one staff member and many volunteers really work out of the “goodness of our hearts”.  We are in it for the animals and are doing the best we can with the funds available and the facility we have.

We have been over maximum capacity for the past several years.  We can’t take in more cats until we are able to adopt out some.  We wish we could accept more cats and dogs but our facility is not large enough to take in every one.  We will help by posting cats and dogs needing a new home in-house on our bulletin board, on our face book page – and now our website – but sadly our facility is limited in the number we can house and care for at any given time.

Watch for our unique donation banks located in businesses around the community!

Have some stuff for us?

If you want to support one of our larger future expenses, please consider helping us out with:

  • A permanent weatherproof sign for the outside of our building – to house hours of operation and a variety of notices, perhaps lost/missing pets or upcoming events
  • Refinishing our main entry door on the outside – it is badly weathered
  • Window trim paint (outside front and back of facility)
  • Paint for our metal doors and trim in our dog kennels and dog run area
  • Replacement of deteriorating flooring for our indoor kennels with a durable textured paint (eg. Beauti-Tone Granite Spreadable Coating/Home Hardware or Behr Granite Grip/Home Depot)
  • New doggy access doors in our dog runs – many dogs have chewed their way through the “flap-type” doors into the indoor kennels over the years and they are approximately $200 each to replace. We have 5 of them now L that need replacing - one for each of our 5 kennels
