Noah’s Wish volunteers worked along side CDART and the SPCA to help evacuate pets in the Kelowna fires. Final count was 125 animals total (49 cats, 38 dogs, 20 horses, 5 rabbits, 4 pigs, 2 turtles, 2 rats, 2 dagus, 1 bird, 1 hamster, 1 gerbil).
Kelowna is becoming well prepared for evacuations and Surrey and White Rock can learn a lot from this current fire and the 2003 fire. Look for tips on disaster planning with pets in future posts.
