The BC SPCA is reminding Prince George and area residents that they’re still supporting the city with animal services, despite the North Cariboo community animal centre closure.
Since the closure at the end of 2024, the service model delivery had to be adapted to ensure needs are still being met in the community.
“It allowed us an opportunity to focus on some other key areas of being able to keep pet guardians and their pets together, or support them when maybe they’re struggling.” said Senior Manager of Community Services, Jamey Blair.
“It’s been a good shift for us to be able to focus on those areas.”
The SPCA also has its Pet Food Bank Program in PG, working with four organizations serving various social services needs and supply their clients with pet food.
Those organizations include:
- Prince George Native Friendship Centre
- Salvation Army Prince George
- Positive Living North
- Society of St. Vincent de Paul Prince George
Blair said they also have the Community Spay and Neuter Program, which aims to reduce cost barriers for pet owners.
