In deepest winter, a groundbreaking rescue is underway. Five groups from two provinces have reached out to save abandoned cats on Little Bay Islands, Newfoundland and Labrador.

Looking for some sweet children’s books with a message about helping animals? Nobody’s Cats is the story of one little kitty who was the first of many helped out of the cold, based on the work of Lakes Animal Friendship Society in Burns Lake, B.C.
