Along with the excitement and merriment of the holidays come many possible dangers & sources of stress for pets. Pets new to the home find this time of year extremely difficult to settle in. Therefore, for the safety & comfort of the animals in our adoption program, pets adopted after December 18th/16 will not be released to their new homes until January 4th/17. Thank you for your understanding. Have a safe and happy holiday season, from all of us here at VPAS.

Our Holiday Online Auction is now LIVE! With 107 items with a combined value of over $6600, there is sure to be something for everyone.

If you're looking for a new cat or kitten to add to your family, join us at PetSmart in Langford Nov 12 & 13.

UPDATE: We have had a huge outpouring of support for these cats and are currently working our way through foster home applications. Thank you to everyone who has shared this post to help spread the word, and to all of those who have offered to open their homes to these cats! Victoria pet-lovers are amazing <3

If you live in the Victoria area and would be interested in fostering a cat (or two) short term, please let us know. There are a large number of cats in a desperate situation that need our help. Please share!
