PetSmart Charities® is presenting another National Adoption Weekend at PetSmart in Langford, and VPAS will be there. The three-day adoption event takes place Friday-Sunday, November 13th - 15th from 11am-4pm each day. Please join VPAS & several other local rescue organizations and help some of our deserving pets find great homes. Keep an eye on our website/Facebook page to find out which adoptable pets will be putting their best paw forward at the adoption fair to win your heart.

On behalf of everyone at Victoria Pet Adoption Society we'd like to thank you for caring about rescued pets and sharing the photos, stories, and events that are posted here. For the safety of the animals in our care, we have placed a hold on all adoptions until after the Halloween weekend. While Halloween is a lot of fun for children of all ages, the costumes, fireworks, decorations, and noises can be frightening for some pets, especially those that are new to a home and have not yet settled in.
