Financial gifts

The Saskatoon SPCA receives thousands of animals per year through our new facility. We do not receive any government funding but are fortunate and grateful to receive both in-kind and monetary gifts. The monetary gifts go to support the greatest needs of the animals in our care. Most often, these gifts are used for medical supplies, vaccinations, medications, and spay/neuter surgeries. Monthly gifts are the best way to support our efforts, as they provide a reliable and predictable source of funding. This consistent support allows us to plan for ongoing care, respond to emergencies, and give every animal the second chance they deserve. Thank you for your generosity and commitment to helping the animals who depend on us.

More about us

Community Impact

For over 55 years, the Saskatoon SPCA has been a vital part of our community, caring for vulnerable animals 24/7, 365 days a year. From the moment an animal enters our care, their well-being is our top priority. Our dedicated team provides more than just basic necessities like food and waterโ€”they offer enrichment through play, affection, and training, keeping animals happy and ready for adoption. Comprehensive medical care, including vaccinations, spay/neuter surgeries, and health assessments, ensures every animal gets a fresh start. With the help of compassionate fosters and volunteers, our impact extends beyond the shelter. Every adopted pet is microchipped for added security, and we support veterinary students through hands-on training opportunities. Through educational programs, behavior training, and community outreach, we strengthen the human-animal bond and build a more compassionate community for pets and people alike. Together, we create brighter futures for all.

Financial Breakdown

The Saskatoon SPCA receives no government funding, relying entirely on community generosity to care for animals in need. With up to 80 animals in our shelter daily, our dedicated staff ensures each one has food, clean shelter, enrichment (toys and food puzzles to prevent boredom), and medical care, including vaccinations and deworming treatments. Most animals arrive unspayed, unneutered, and often in poor health, requiring costly medical interventions from our veterinary partners. Behind the scenes, our team tirelessly cleans kennels, washes dishes, and manages endless laundry and team members who are financial wizards to keep operations running smoothly. Every donation directly impacts these vulnerable animals, providing them with the care and love they deserve. Together, we can give them a chance at brighter futures.

Our Philosophy

If you love animals as much as we do, you understand why we work so hard to provide the best life possible for the animals in our care, through safe shelter, sustenance, medical treatment, and enrichment to thousands of abused, neglected, abandoned or lost animals in our community but most importantly we offer these pets a second chance at finding loving, happy homes. We aspire to improve the quality of life for companion animals in our community through education, adoption, training and programming. We like to say that we are at the centre of a happy community of people and their pets. It thrives because of the dedication of our people, the people we serve, and the animals we nurture together. Together with donors like you we can ensure that all animals who come through our doors receive the care they deserve and are matched with loving homes.

Programs and Services

The Saskatoon SPCA offers a range of programs to support animals and their owners. Our adoption counselors work to match pets with loving homes, breaking down barriers to make adoption accessible. To keep pets with their families during tough times, we operate an emergency pet food bank and provide low-cost pet supplies. We also assist northern rescues by sharing resources. Our volunteers and fosters play a vital role in animal care, offering temporary homes and daily support. Through our Supported Rehoming Program, pets transition directly to new homes, reducing shelter strain while providing peace of mind to owners. For those who must surrender pets, our compassionate team ensures they find loving homes. We also focus on education, offering hands-on training for veterinary students and behavior classes to strengthen the bond between pets and their owners, promoting healthier relationships and communities.
