The Fraser Valley
Feline Welfare Society
Dedicated to promoting the health & welfare of cats, and celebrating their close bond with people.
We work to address cat overpopulation with the goal of creating humane communities where all cats are recognized for their intrinsic worth, and where humans and cats coexist and enrich each other's lives.
If you would like to help homeless, abandoned, and surrendered cats in the Fraser Valley, please visit our
Get Involved page. We appreciate and thank you for your donation to these great causes!
​
Your donations also help individuals & families in the Fraser Valley with emergency cat food, supplies, and veterinary care. ​Times are really tough right now in our province. The cost of living keeps going up. Housing, utilities, food, transportation, even veterinary care. If we come together as a community and help one another, it will make for brighter days during these darker times.
​
The Fraser Valley Feline Welfare Society provides pet loss counselling.
This service is for everyone, and it doesn't matter what type of pet you have/had, or the circumstances surrounding the loss. We provide a safe, nonjudgmental, compassionate space for you to get the support you need. All counselling services are by donation.
​
Please visit our Counselling page for more information.
We are here for you!
​
Coming soon: Compassionate Fatigue Counselling - for those who work & volunteer with animals.
​
Stay in touch! There is more to come as we add more programs and services. We thank you for being here.
