RESCUE is a no kill facility of which 95% of all cats taken in are relinquished to our care from the Winnipeg Humane Society.
The organization was set up to give preference to the Siamese and Oriental breeds, but will also take in the domestic partners of these breeds. Being of a recognizable breed does not safeguard Siamese cats from physical handicaps, emotional problems, becoming feral or growing into a neglected Tom - all are welcome at our door!
Upon entering our program, each cat is health checked, vaccinated, dewormed and then placed in one of our loving foster homes to monitor for a two-week quarantine period. "Suspect" strays (cats that have been "living on the streets" and may have come into contact with FeLV) are tested for Feline Leukemia or FIV. If any health problems arise during this period the animals are promptly treated. Upon completing this quarantine period the cat will be transferred to our main viewing area for adoption. All adult cats (over 6 months of age) are sterilized as soon as possible. In addition to the sterilization, vaccination, deworming, and testing, our adoption packages also includes a microchip ID or tattoo to ensure lost pets find their way home. Once the quarantine period has been completed and the above treatments have been completed, the cats are made available for adoption.
The adoption fees for cats are used to offset the costs of spaying or neutering as well as paying vet bills, the cost of medications and other costs relates to running RESCUE. The shelter also receives private donations and holds fund-raising events. However, much of the money comes from the volunteers themselves.
