Save the Saskatoon SPCA

Two kittens with the text Imagine Saskatoon without the SPCA

The Saskatoon SPCA provides an important public health and safety service for our community. We not only run the city pound, we improve the quality of life for Saskatoon’s animals through education, adoption, and upholding animal welfare legislation.

The dedicated staff of the SPCA, represented by CUPE local 3477, are calling on city council to provide the SPCA with the funding needed to provide pound services for Saskatoon’s lost, abandoned, and homeless animals.

We are asking residents of Saskatoon to send a message to city council calling for more funding.

For more than six decades, the Saskatoon SPCA has operated the city pound. Every year, we care for thousands of lost, abused or unwanted animals. We reunite pets with owners, and help animals find their fur-ever home.

As Saskatoon has grown, so too has the demand for pound services. But more funding is needed to keep pace with the demands for our services.

Currently the SPCA is only receiving 37 per cent of the funds needed to operate the pound. Generous donations have been subsidizing this essential public service.

The situation is dire. Without an immediate increase of funding from the City of Saskatoon, the SCPA can no longer provide pound services for the community.

Help us fight for #MoreFundingMeow.
