CR Partners for Animal Welfare Society (PAWS)

In 2014, a small group of volunteers formed to aid in the care of Campbell River’s community and feral cat population; feral colony caretaking, trap-neuter-release, barn cat placement, and socialization of semi-social kittens and cats. That would be the beginnings of CR PAWS and these still remain our main objectives.

After multiple collaborative projects with the very popular and successful “Lost and Found Animals of Campbell River” Facebook page team, we amalgamated our two groups in order to combine resources.

In 2016, CR PAWS became a registered Canadian charity; our society is operated entirely by local volunteers and governed by a three-member Board of Directors.

Although our society is still an active advocate and caretaker for the feral and community cat population, we now assist in lost animal searches, advocate for animal welfare, foster/socialize/adopt kittens and cats, and barn cat placements.
