Pet care & behaviour
Yes! In fact, Petsecure Pet Health Insurance provides a complimentary six-week trial of pet health insurance with every dog and cat adoption.
With pet health insurance, you can lower the stress of paying for large, unexpected or unplanned expenses with a monthly premium.
The BC SPCA recognizes that pet-friendly housing is limited in B.C. To make it easier to work together to create humane communities, we have developed resources to help renters demonstrate themselves as responsible guardians and assist strata councils and property owners in effectively managing their buildings and suites.

Fostering an animal means you take a BC SPCA animal into your home and temporarily care for them for us. While they’re in your home, we provide you with food, supplies and medical care. Foster families help animals recover from illness/ injuries, get ready for adoption, and provide them with socialization and love.
If you are unsure about adopting an animal, or unable to make the commitment at this time, fostering can be a great way to bring animals into your life. You can also multiply your impact by caring for many animals during your time as an animal foster.
While fostering is temporary, many foster families fall in love with animals in their care. If an animal is available to be adopted, fosters can apply to be their forever home. In the case of emergency boarding, fosters feel proud of providing a safe temporary home for animals before they are reunited with their family.
