All monies raised for the Winnipeg Pet Rescue Shelter will help with their mission to continue the much-needed work of caring for and adopting out the many unwanted, abandoned or abused animals seen at our shelter!

Large or small, EVERY DONATION IS IMPORTANT to us and YOU can make a difference. The Winnipeg Pet Rescue Shelter is working hard to continue this very important work for our voiceless friends.

A charitable tax receipt will be sent to you for the entire amount of your donation. The Winnipeg Pet Rescue Shelter thanks you for your generous support.
Together, WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

 

THOSE ADDED EXPENSES…$25.00/month

Every so often we get newborn puppies and kittens that need special mother’s replacement milk to survive or a cat or dog that needs special food. A badly matted cat or a dog with very dry skin will need special attention. For only 83 cents a day, the money raised here will be used to enhance the well being of all shelter animals.

HELP FEED A CAT OR KITTEN...$65.00/month

SPONSOR A DOG KENNEL…$100.00/month

It costs the shelter approximately $3.33 a day to house our dogs and puppies. We are always full to capacity with dogs and puppies awaiting loving homes. With daily walks and lots of attention, our adult dogs are always happy to meet new friends!

VETERINARY BILLS…$80.00/month

From booster shots to spaying and neutering, from frostbitten ears to hernia operations, our animals are always getting the best of care. Any pet owner will know, veterinary bills add up. This is a huge expense for the shelter as every animal coming in gets health checked and will have immediate treatment when necessary.

RENT FUND…

If we could get 45 people to donate $75.00 a month each… It costs the shelter approximately $3,400 a month to keep a roof over our heads. With all those precious animals in our care, we need to make them feel safe and loved in a clean and friendly environment until the right family comes along to adopt them. With no government funding, this is a huge expense for the shelter as well.

SHELTER EXPANSION FUND….TARGET $50,000

Great News! We are expanding! We will be able to care for even more abandoned, abused or unwanted animals. We need to build additional cat cages and dog kennels, build a new bird aviary and replace our existing dog kennels and puppy pens. We need to make a separate room for our special needs and sick pets so they can get better away from all the hustle and noise of the daily shelter routine.
