Guided by the humane ethic, it is the mission of the Canadian S.P.C.A.
to:
- Protect
animals against negligence, abuse, and exploitation;
- Represent
their interests and ensure their well-being;
- Raise
public awareness and help develop compassion for all living creatures.
Our
role is to prevent cruelty against animals through a number of actions
which profit both animals and humans. We help prevent animal cruelty by
doing the following:
- Receiving
nearly 24 000 abandoned animals each year;
- Educating
the public about the benefits of sterilisation;
- Advising
people when adopting animals;
Preventing
impulsive adoption
[
The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the
way its animals are treated. ]
