BC SPCA temporary evacuation centre opened in Kamloops for animals rescued from Lytton
KAMLOOPS — As families who escaped wildfire zones in BC’s Interior work to recover, their four-legged, furry family members are being brought to the SPCA’s temporary evacuation centre in Kamloops.
The temporary animal evacuation centre is located at High Country Cold Storage — a 5,500-square-foot air-conditioned warehouse on the Tk’emlups reserve. Longtime SPCA volunteer and former branch manager Jennifer Gore took CFJC crews on a tour of the initial set-up.
“I’ve been in a number of animal evacuation centres and this is probably the best one I’ve seen because it’s just so calm and quiet and removed from everything,” she explains. “It’s great for them.”
