Be a Hero: Foster a Cat and Share Your Love

Do you have a little extra love to share? By becoming a foster caregiver for a cat in need, you can be a hero in their life! 

At Critteraid, we invite you to open your heart and home to a feline friend who is waiting for a second chance. 

Fostering not only provides a safe and nurturing environment for cats awaiting adoption, but it also allows you to make a meaningful impact on their journey to finding a forever home. 

Whether you’re caring for a playful kitten or a gentle adult cat, your kindness and support are invaluable. 

We provide all the necessary supplies and guidance, so you can focus on giving love and comfort. Join us in this rewarding experience—your temporary care can change a cat’s life forever!

With Profound Sadness, we share:

Over the past few days, our sanctuary family has been facing one of the most heartbreaking experiences in our history. We are navigating a situation that has required immediate action, coordination with veterinary professionals, federal (CFIA) regulatory authorities, Interior Health and Epidemiology divisions as we had positive case of H5N1 at our sanctuary.

Our team and volunteers are devastated. The animals in our care are the center of everything we do, and the emotional weight of this moment is immense.

Because this situation is still active and regulated, we are simply consumed with this horror. We want to be very clear: we are not hiding anything from our community. We are simply trying to move through this with care, accuracy, and integrity while also supporting our animals and each other.

We will share everything with our experience. The facts we are getting a crash course in, may be able to help the next sanctuaries as these situations are designed for rapid responses wrapped in navigating the differentiating factors of being put into a commercial category.
For now, we ask for:

Our commitment to the animals, to transparency, and to this community has not changed and will never change.
If you need to reach us, please do so with kindness. Our hearts are fragile right now.

Love,
Your Critteraid Family
