33 Cats, Dogs, Puppies and Kittens Surrendered to B.C. SPCA in Nanaimo

NANAIMO, BRITISH COLUMBIA, CANADA, JUL 29 – The B.C. SPCA took in 33 cats and dogs from a Nanaimo home with poor conditions and uncontrolled breeding, with veterinarians treating all animals for parasites.

  • B.C. SPCA took in 33 cats and dogs, including 16 puppies, from a Nanaimo property with animals affected by flea infestations.
  • Eileen Drever, SPCA senior officer of protection and stakeholder relations, said uncontrolled breeding overwhelmed the property, which had feces, urine, and flea infestations.
  • The SPCA reported all animals require flea treatment, with most housed at the Nanaimo community animal centre while some animals went to qathet, Powell River, and Parksville.
  • The SPCA said the rest of the animals will be available in the coming weeks, with three-week-old puppies planned for adoption in about five weeks after weaning.
  • Drever warned that the home was described as having uncontrolled breeding, which creates a 'significant challenge' for SPCA resources.
