Meet Sardina - the tiniest, sweetest grumpy face you’ll ever fall in love with! 🐟💕

Don’t let the name fool you - Sardina isn’t salty at all. This 11-week-old little lady just happens to have a permanent “I’m judging you” face… but behind that adorably unimpressed expression is the biggest cuddlebug in town.

Sardina loves snuggles, pets, and being the center of attention. She’s social, affectionate, and always ready to climb into your lap (even if she looks like she’s questioning your life choices while doing it). Her grumpy little face is pure deception - she’s sweet as sugar and will melt into your arms the moment you pick her up.

If you’ve been dreaming of a kitten with the personality of a teddy bear and the facial expression of a disapproving grandma, Sardina is your girl. Come meet this pouty princess and let her show you that love sometimes comes with a side of sass.

🚀 Meet Chewbacca (aka Chewy)! 🚀

This scruffy adventurer is ready to blast off into his forever home! Chewy is an outdoorsy boy with a serious case of wanderlust - if there’s a trail to explore or a toy to toss, he’s all in. Bonus: he’s extremely treat-motivated, which makes training feel less like work and more like a snack-fueled party. 🍖🎉

Chewy’s looking for someone who will keep up his positive, reward-based training (basic obedience, loose leash walking, and helping him manage his “OMG, LIFE IS EXCITING!” moments). He’s eager to learn and thrives when he has a job to do - especially if that job ends with a cookie.

He loves being with his people and has previously lived peacefully with cats. He’s also lived with kids, but because of his enthusiastic zest for life, older children would be the best match for his bouncy energy.

If you’re craving a partner for hikes, adventures, and epic snuggle sessions after, Chewy is your Wookiee for life. 🐾✨

🥛 Got milk? We do – and his name is Milky!

This charming gent with the milk moustache is as sweet as his name. Milky is a super social guy who loves snuggles, sunny naps ☀️, snacks 🍖, and soaking up all the affection you can dish out.

He may have only three legs, but that doesn’t stop him from scaling his cat tree like a pro to claim the comfiest perch 👑.

Milky is currently awaiting a dental, so we’re looking for a local foster-to-adopt home here in qathet while we get his smile sparkling. (Good oral hygiene is important for cats, too! 🪥😹)

💛 If you’re ready for a cuddly, affectionate buddy who’ll melt your heart faster than a latte, Milky’s your guy!

👉 Apply here: https://spca.bc.ca/adoption/cat-pre-adoption-questionnaire/
📍 Or swing by during open hours to meet this handsome fella!

🖤 Meet Bagheera - A Little Panther with a Big Heart! 🐾

Bagheera is a striking 1-year-old with a sleek black coat and the graceful swagger of a jungle cat - but don’t let his majestic looks fool you. This guy is all love.

He’s a total purr machine, known to rev his motor the second you say hello. Bagheera thrives on connection and makes fast friends with just about everyone. He’ll greet you with leg rubs, flop down dramatically for belly scratches, and follow you around like your own personal shadow.

When he’s not soaking up attention, Bagheera enjoys lounging in his catio, watching the birds and taking in the world like the observant little gentleman he is. He’s curious, interactive, and always engaged - whether it’s exploring new spaces or soaking up the sun.

Bagheera would do well in a home that can offer him lots of love, enrichment, and windows to watch the world go by. He's the kind of cat who makes every day feel just a little more special. 💛

Meet Beckie - Queen of Sass and Belly Rubs!
🎉 Just turned 1 | Feline royalty in training

Beckie isn't your average cat - she's a full-on vibe. Equal parts majestic and mischievous, this girl has perfected the art of lounging with purpose and accepting affection on her terms (and no one else's, thank you very much).

Her whiskers? Flawless. Her sass? Refined. Her tolerance for your endless petting? Limited - but politely enforced with a classy side-eye or gentle tail flick.

When she's not ruling from the top of her scratching post throne, Beckie enjoys quiet company, belly rubs (yes, really!), and quality time with her humans... until she's over it.

She gets along well with other feline peasants - er, friends - and keeps a tidy castle. Calm, clean, and confident, Beckie is ready to bring some regal energy to your home.

If you're looking for a chill, affectionate cat with just the right amount of sass, Beckie is your girl. Long may she reign. 👑

📍 Come meet the queen today!

Meet Siren - Your Gentle Senior Sidekick 💕

🐾 11 years young | Formosan Mountain Dog | Female

Siren is the definition of easy-breezy. This lovely senior lady is quiet, calm, and already house trained - she's the kind of companion who brings a soft, grounding energy to any home.

Siren loves people (kids too!) and enjoys being around her humans, though she's not overly needy - think sweet presence over shadow. She'll gladly share a couch or even your bed if invited, offering gentle kisses and the occasional majestic spin move when she's feeling playful. Despite her age, she's got some surprising speed and a serious love for scent games!

While she's great with other respectful dogs, Siren prefers a chill vibe and isn't into rowdy play. She walks beautifully on leash, adores car rides, and finds joy just lying in the grass soaking up the world. She's mostly deaf, so she takes in the world at her own pace-but don't worry, she's tuned into what really matters: treats, naps, and love.

Though she's had friendly moments with cats, we recommend a feline-free home. She could happily coexist with another calm, like-minded dog.

If you're looking for a low-maintenance best friend with a heart of gold and a soul full of grace, Siren might just be your perfect match.

🚨 Exotic cats like servals, leopard cats and caracals are not native to British Columbia or Canada, and they suffer when they are imported, bred, sold and kept in captivity as pets.

ACT NOW and tell the provincial government to ban the keeping of exotic cats as pets: ⤵️

It is currently legal to own many species of exotic cats, like servals, leopard cats, caracals, ocelots, and more, as pets in British Columbia. They can be bred, sold and shown off in public without any provincial restrictions. The novelty of owning a wild animal or the profit that can be made from....

✨️ Meet Boris ✨️

This scruffy little sweetheart is 9 weeks of pure puppy charm! A dachshund/wire terrier mix with a heart as big as his ears, Boris is playful, , and ready to steal your heart (and maybe your socks). 😏

Boris is a social butterfly who adores people and always wants to be where the action is. Whether he’s chasing a toy, snuggling in your lap, or splashing in the water, he’s happiest with his humans nearby. He’s also a big fan of cats and is learning the ropes of doggy life from his fellow canine pals - though he takes his time warming up to the big guys.

Smart and food-motivated, Boris is eager to learn and is already doing great with his house training. He’s the kind of pup who brings joy wherever he goes - whether he's romping in the yard or curling up for a post-play nap.

If you’re ready for a best friend who’s equal parts cuddly and clever, Boris is waiting to meet you!

Oreo adores attention, head rubs, and the occasional string toy session - but his real joy comes from hanging out with you. He’s got a favourite perch on top of his room’s enclosure where he keeps a watchful eye on all the action like the king of his castle 👑

🐭 Meet Stewie & Winston - The Chillest Bros in Town! 🐭

Looking for low-maintenance roommates who are cute, cuddly, and don’t steal your snacks (unless they're freeze-dried strawberries)? Look no further - Stewie and Winston are here to steal your heart instead!

These 2-year-old bonded brothers are the Kings of Cozy. When they’re not snoozing in a hammock or snuggling in a cozy corner, they’re perched atop their wooden rat palace, watching the world go by like tiny, whiskered philosophers.

They’re super friendly, easy to handle, and way more into chill vibes than running laps in their multi-floor mansion (honestly, same). Give them a snuffle mat, some treats, and a comfy nook, and these boys are living the dream.

If you’ve got space in your heart (and a little hammock in your home), Stewie and Winston would love to move in together and be your snack-loving, people-watching, cuddle champion companions. 💕

Adopt the dynamic duo today - they're the rat-tastic best friends you never knew you needed!
