Richmond Animal Protection Society
|
The Richmond Animal Protection Society (formerly Richmond Homeless Cats)
is a non-profit organization that cares for homeless animals both at its
original shelter on No. 6 Road and Cambie and at its other
shelter at 12071 No. 5 Road.
Visit the site to find out how you can help or if you'd like
to adopt a pet for yourself. I sponsor Cha
Cha and Cookie (and one other cat) from
the No. 6 Road and Cambie shelter; $15/month (per cat) gets
them food, all necessary veterinary care, and a safe place to sleep and
run around in at the shelter.
