About SCARS

Second Chance Animal Rescue Society (SCARS) is dedicated to reducing the number of homeless animals in Northern Alberta, Canada

We believe that there is a suitable home for all homeless animals: young or old; large or small.

As a volunteer-run, registered charity, we care for these animals by providing veterinary care and foster homes for animals in need until a permanent home is found. These private foster homes provide the animals with warm shelter, food, exercise, and tender loving care (something that so many of the animals we receive have never experienced).

SCARS does not practice selective intake procedures and operates in a triage manner: taking the animal in most medical need first. As a result our medical expenses are enormous. Please consider donating to our rescue efforts.


Look At Us Now!

To date, SCARS has rescued and rehomed over 3,000 animals.

Because these animals live in our homes, we deveop a very deep bond with our fosters. Many of the adoptive families keep us updated on how well their new companions are thriving in their new homes.

To all the wonderful foster homes, all the tireless volunteers, all the compassionate furever-homes: we say a heartfelt thank-you!

Please support your local rescue society and consider adoption as opposed to buying your new friend.

Leyla (aka June)

It's me Leyla (a.k.a. June). I wanted to let you know that I am doing very well and have settled into my new home. I couldn't be happier! I have tons of toys all over the house to play with, and I even have a furry feline sister named Keetsya to chase around. She seems to like me and lets me lick her ears and chase her throughout the house, although she sometimes chases me?! What's up with that??? I have learned to sit, shake a paw and lie down…mind you I will do whatever it takes to get those yummy treats!!! I want to send a big thank you to Aunty Lorraine, who was my Foster Mommy before I found my forever home. I miss her lots but know that I will stay in touch with her. Jamie has also been a big fan of mine, so thank you Jamie for caring about me! My Mommy and Daddy hug and squeeze me lots and tell me that they love me. I think it is a win-win situation for us all. Life couldn't be better! SCARS, thanks for rescuing me when you did. We will all be forever grateful. Keep on saving other lives and take comfort knowing that you are making a difference in this world.

Love and gratitude,
Leyla and the Family
