La SPCA de Montréal déborde de chats à la recherche d’un foyer



Montréal, jeudi 21 mai 2009 – La SPCA sonne l’alarme : elle déborde de chats abandonnés. En ce moment, plus de 150 chats cherchent une famille.



Le nombre d’abandons dépasse largement le nombre d’adoptions, ce qui crée un engorgement au refuge.



La SPCA demande donc au public de venir adopter un chat dès aujourd’hui. « Nous vivons ce que nous appelons « La saison des chatons » et c’est durant cette période que l’éternel problème de surpopulation féline atteint des niveaux de gravité alarmants. Nous recevons des centaines de chatons alors que notre capacité d’hébergement pour les chats a atteint ses limites. Avec autant de chatons, les chats plus âgés ne seront tout simplement pas adoptés », déclare Alanna Devine, directrice du bien-être des animaux.



La SPCA rappelle à la population que les chats adultes font de merveilles compagnons et encourage le public à venir adopter un chat dans le besoin.



Les heures pour les adoptions sont de midi à 20 h du lundi au vendredi, et de 11 h à 17 h les samedis et dimanches.



Nous avons aussi besoin de familles d’accueil temporaires. Les personnes intéressées à prendre un chat ou un chien temporarirement peuvent communiquer avec le service des familles d’accueil à 514.735.2711, poste 2237.

CSPCA Overflowing with Cats looking for new homes



The CSPCA is sounding the alarm: It is overflowing with cats. At the moment, over 150 cats are waiting for a home.



The number of surrendered cats exceeds by far the number of adoptions thus creating an overflow at the shelter.



The CSPCA is calling on the public to come and adopt a cat today. “It is what we call ‘kitten season’ and it is during this period when the ongoing cat overpopulation problem becomes increasingly severe. Hundreds of kittens end up at our shelter, which is already overflowing with cats. With so many kittens, the older cats are simply not getting adopted” states Alanna Devine Director of Animal Welfare.



The CSPCA is reminding people that older cats can make wonderful companions and are encouraging the public to come and adopt a cat in need.



Adoption hours are 12 pm to 8 pm Monday through Friday and 11 am to 5 pm on Saturday and Sunday.



Temporary foster homes are also needed. People who wish to offer a temporary home to a cat or a dog can contact the Foster Family Program at 514-735-2711 ext. 2237.

most pet stores here get their kittens from the SPCA - and charge the same amount that you'd be charged if you went to the SPCA - $125. includes shots

sometimes cat are way pricier than that in pet shops, and 125$ at spca pays for the castration, at a pet shop, its another 100$ the costumer will have to pay to get the animal neutered!

dont forget that pet shop are there to make money, they will never sell any animal loosing money!
I'm feeling hardcore right now..
