🐾 NEW KITTEN SPAY & NEUTER PROMOTION! 🐾

We’re making it more affordable to adopt a kitten while helping control our community’s pet population! ❤️

🐱 Pay the regular $200 adoption fee, which includes deworming, flea treatment and their first vaccine.

✂️ Once your kitten is spayed or neutered, NARA will refund the FULL $200 adoption fee!

📋 Proof of spay or neuter must be provided within 6 months of adoption.

This special promotion is made possible thanks to the generous support of our community through bottle donations and the hard work of our “bottle guy” extraordinaire, Barry! 🥰

NARA currently has a large number of kittens in care, with many ready for adoption and more still too young to find their homes. We want to keep our doors open to intakes, and hope this program helps remove financial barriers, encourages more families to adopt, and, most importantly, spay or neuter their new companions. 🐾

❤️ And don’t forget about our adult cats! Their adoption fee includes the FULL cost of their spay or neuter, as all adult cats are fixed before adoption.

Apply to adopt today at narabc.com/adopt

Back in 2012 NARA started working on an out-of-control colony of feral cats known as the ‘Tim Hortens’ or NIS colony. Back then there were kittens hanging out by the dumpsters of the drive-through and many, mostly orange, cats in the surrounding area. The entire colony was TNR’d; Trap, Neuter & Return (or rehome if possible, especially all the kittens). Some of the veterinary costs were covered with a grant from the BCSPCA. Over the years the colony reduced in size naturally, being fed by their caregiver. Eventually the caregiver had to step away and the 3 remaining senior feral cats, that had never been handled other than by the vet under heavy sedation, needed a safe place to live out their days. Up stepped an amazing foster family, who welcomed them all into their purpose made barn with large outdoor run. Ginger Fred passed away peacefully a few months later, but we just got this lovely photo update of Lizzy and Harlequin, loving their retirement. We don’t know how many cats and kittens were involved, but it would’ve been well over 100, probably nearer 200. So many volunteers and supporters but we fixed and or rehomed the lot.
If you have a ginger female cat and live around Terrace – she’s probably from the same gene pool.

HAPPY UPDATE! Ollie, the missing 'Ferry island' cat was trapped overnight and is very happy to be home. 4 weeks, 5 days, one very determined owner. 3 traps, 3 game cameras, a lot of support from friends, walkers, volunteers and NARA. He's never going out in a pet stroller again and now has a catio. He seems fine but will be getting seen by a vet as soon as they can fit him in.
His owner wants to thank everyone that got involved. Please spread the word.
