North Cariboo
The BC SPCA remains committed to supporting the North Cariboo region with important animal services, following the decision by the City of Prince George to award the municipal Animal Shelter Operations contract to another provider leading to the closure of our centre as of December 31st, 2024.
We continue to serve the animal welfare needs of our valued North Cariboo community through a number of regionally based programs and services.
