Kootenay Animal Assistance Program Socierty (KAAP)

After two years of helping animals and their owners in our community, the volunteers of the Kootenay Animal Assistance Program Society (KAAP) have become a registered Charity. We can issue tax receipts for qualified donations.

The volunteers of KAAP have helped almost 900 cats and dogs since the fall of 2007. Nearly 550 of these pets were homeless; KAAP offered temporary foster home care to them while they were waiting to find their new families. These animals were also given medical care as required; many needed to be spayed or neutered, and needed other attention such as vaccinations or de-worming. KAAP advertised these pets on the well-known web site www.homes4animals.com, as well as local media, and has had great success.

KAAP is the only local organization actively promoting spay/neuter of pets, by helping low-income pet owners to access this service. Through generous donations by local individuals and businesses, KAAP has helped over 350 cats and dogs to date, and has significantly impacted the pet overpopulation problem in the region.

Another innovative project is the KAAP Barn Cat Program, which locates suitable rural properties and matches them with semi-feral cats and kittens that love to catch mice.

This new charitable non-profit society is gearing up for a busy year! KAAP needs more foster homes, volunteers to drive pets and help with adoption clinics, donations, and ideas for helping community animals.
