The BC SPCA's new Strategic Plan for 2014-2018 has a primary focus on helping the province address its overwhelming cat crisis, according to chief executive officer Craig Daniell.
Daniell said the BC SPCA and other animal welfare groups have taken major steps in the past several decades to help communities reduce the number of surplus cats but that more needs to be done.
"The BC SPCA has invested millions of dollars in low-cost spay/neuter programs, the creation of spay/neuter clinics and a wide range of other programs and services to significantly reduce the number of feral and abandoned cats in B.C.," said Daniell. "In our new Strategic Plan, we are ramping up these efforts and proposing creative ways to partner with local governments, veterinarians, businesses, rescue groups and members of the public to save more animal lives."
The objective of the Strategic Plan is to help create humane communities by offering greater support in areas such as education, cruelty prevention and advocacy. The Plan also addresses opportunities to combat animal cruelty and suffering in B.C.
