Our Events and Fund Raisers

Raising enough money to care for all our critters is as big a task as actually caring for them, and our volunteers are always planning something. This page will let you know what we've got in the works next. We'll keep it updated so you can mark your calendar for our next garage sale, mall display, raffle, or whatever event is coming up next. You'll also find our on-going events and fund raisers listed at the end. Be assured that the proceeds of all our fund raisers go to the animals. The volunteers who work on them and donate materials take no remuneration.

Come out and see us. You'll find it worth your while. We have some very talented people donating their skills and some very generous merchants in our community who support us with gift prizes or lend us space for our displays. We'd also like to chat and answer your questions about our shelter and our animals.

Hope to see you soon.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Ongoing:


Katie's Place's book, The Cat Who Sang & Other Stories of Rescued Pets, is about the animals at Katie's Place over the years, their humour and pathos, their challenges and adventures, their eccentricities and altruism. Their stories have moved volunteers, adopters, and supporters, and they surprise us still, even after thousands of rescues. Click here for more information about the book.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 


 
 
 
 

Our 'Sales Shelves'
We have a small display area at the back of the shelter with special trinkets, cards, books, pet supplies or other items that we think people might like to buy. When something nice is donated for which the shelter just isn't a good place, we figure somebody else can enjoy it at home and we can put the proceeds toward animal care. Our sales cupboard isn't large but we hope to reorganize things better over the next year and display more items. Check it out next time you drop by.
 
 
 
 
 
 


Cards
We are offering hand-crafted cards featuring our own Katie's Place animals. Each box contains six cards and envelopes and each card describes the journey of one pet from homelessness into a happy home. One boxed set  is $15.00, or you can buy two for $25.00. Call us at 604-463-7917 or email us at katies.place@shaw.ca for pick-up options.
