Did you know aversive training methods endanger the loving relationship between you and your dog? With so much misinformation online about dog training, it can be exhausting to navigate it and choose a dog trainer. It is National Train Your Dog Month, and there is no better time to reward your dog with a good trainer.

Juluis is approximately eight years old and was brought to us as a stray who had been running around Downtown Chilliwack for the last few months. Julius is an extremely affectionate cat who loves being around people, however he is not a big fan of being picked up and chooses to jump in your lap when he feels the need for some lap loving, otherwise he is very content just following someone around and rubbing on their legs. Since Julius came in as a stray, unfortunately we do n...ot have a lot of background information about him. What we do know is that he is not comfortable around other cats and would prefer to be the king of his castle and rule it by himself. Julius recently had a dental and had three teeth removed along with a dental cleaning and his blood work shows us that he is very healthy. If you would like to adopt Julius please fill out an application: https://spca.bc.ca/surv/cat-adoption-application-chilliwack

Exciting news! BC SPCA has contributed to this beautiful new book 'Rescue Me - The Rescue Horses of British Columbia' - and it's now available from our online store! https://shop.spca.bc.ca/products/rescue-me-horse-book It's the perfect gift for any horse lover. It certainly brought a lot of us to tears in reading the updates from horses that were in our care, like Happy, who waited two years to find his forever home. Our favourite excerpt from his update: "Without the abil...ity to bear the weight of a rider, Happy has proved to carry a much larger load. He has become the equine listener for family and friends. He lovingly carries all the secrets shared with him and supports his tribe. He is a teacher, companion, confidant but most of all a friend." I'm not crying - you're crying! Get your copy today. Remember that Canada Post is expecting major delays this holiday season - so best to order as soon as possible! See more

**ADOPTED** Peata is a 12 year old senior cat looking for a special, semi quiet home to call his own. He absolutely loves all people and has nothing but lots of love and affection to give. One of the good things about adopting an older cat is that they have immense love and willingness to give back, are more responsible than their younger counterparts, and fit in with other animals and people extremely well. Adopting a senior cat will enrich your life with the company of a... devoted pet who will never forget your kindness. Peata is also very healthy and has just had dental done, he also seems to be very interested in other cats in a good way, so we are pretty sure that he would do well in a home with another cat that is also cat friendly. If you would like to adopt Peata please fill out an application https://spca.bc.ca/sur/cat-adoption-application-chilliwack/ and quote ID number: 518851

Help! We are in need of heavy duty shelves for our food and litter storage. This Shelving Unit linked below is the correct measurements and strength but we don't need this exact one. Our community has been asking for ways they can help us and this would be a huge help. We know this is a big ask, so any way you are able to contribute would be really appreciated. The animals thank you! https://www.canadiantire.ca//mastercraft-5-shelf-metal-woo
