A SELF-PROFESSED ANIMAL LOVER, Elizabeth Ginn, has founded
the Last Chance Cat Ranch; and when she says that she has cashed in her RRSPs
to keep her organization running, there’s no doubt of her seriousness and
passion for her animals.
The Last Chance Cat Ranch has
the purr-fect pet for you!
Born in Saint John,
N.B., Elizabeth, along with her three children, worked her way west in 1977.
From Toronto to Alberta,
she has offered her services protecting and rescuing strays. In larger centres
like Calgary and Edmonton,
Elizabeth was successful in
adopting out most animals, but for some unknown reason Lethbridge
has a different track record.
Presently Elizabeth
has about 50 animals and has become a registered society with the provincial
government; thus allowing her to have this many cats and requiring an annual report
to be filled out yearly on the status of the Ranch. Elizabeth
relies on pet food donations, cash donations and volunteers to keep things going.
In addition, all of the vet clinics in Lethbridge
have been generous in their support of her endeavour. Felines in her care are
spayed or neutered, have current shots, and for the ones that are too ill she
pays for euthanasia.
