While our staff strive to provide for all of our animals' needs in the day-to-day operation of our shelter, we would be lost without the support of our many volunteers.

Each of them contributes so much to our SPCA, giving of their free time - it is indeed so very much appreciated.

We have the dog-walking corps, giving much needed exercise and fresh air to our canine friends, and our cat cuddlers, who ensure our feline residents receive love and affection, along with a little playtime.  Some of our volunteers assist staff on the front desk, responding to inquiries from our clients, all in an effort to ensure that perfect match between adoptive home and new best friend.  And just when you thought it was all good, clean fun, we have those special folks who don't mind getting their hands a little dirty ... or is that getting a dirty dog clean?

We also extend our thanks to those who assist the SPCA in numerous other ways, such as fostering shelter animals and participating in special events.  The list goes on ... all of it for the love of our animals.

Would you like to join us?  Please call the SPCA of Western Quebec at (819) 770-7722, e-mail ahspca@storm.ca or drop by our shelter location at 659 Auguste Mondoux, Gatineau (Aylmer sector).

See you soon!
