Join us this Dec 3rd for Giving Tuesday!
Welcome to Critteraid
Welcome to Critteraid Animal Sanctuary & Charity Thrift Shoppe in the heart of the South Okanagan, British Columbia.
Our animal rescue sanctuary and thrift store are supported by amazing volunteers and generous donations.
We are more than just a shelter or animal rescue facility, we also provide educational opportunities that invite people to learn about our animals in a way that will change their perspective about themselves and the world around them.
Our origins began with cat rescue over 30 years ago.
We have provided shelter, medical care, healing, and love to thousands of cats, dogs, and farm animals of all kinds.
We call ourselves an animal sanctuary, but we’re just as much a people sanctuary.
Humans often find great comfort, connection, and purpose when they are helping others.
