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.

Jake (Bandit)

It's been only three weeks but I had to let you know how well Jake (formerly Bandit) is doing. He has made a new friend in my male cat Jonesy. The things that cat lets Jake do to him. After being attacked and losing the hair off the end of his tail to a dog I really thought Jonesy would have doggy issues but as you can see by the latest picture, that is not a problem. I can't thank you enough for letting me become Jake's new mommy. Will keep you updated on his progress.


Thank you from Robyn, Jonesy, Thelma and Louise.
