Looking for a forever home; Kamloops SPCA pet of the week

KAMLOOPS – This cat came to the Kamloops SPCA a stray.

The shelter says in a media release that "in a world full of vampires and werewolves the best protector you could have is the great Van Helsing the cat."

At eight years young this handsome guy is ready to retire from patrolling the streets of Kamloops to for creatures of evil. Not much is known about his history other than he was already neutered when he came so may have been a house guardian at some point.

For more information about Van Helsing contact the staff at the Kamloops SPCA. His animal ID number is 472869.

Visit the shelter's webpage for more information such as location, adoption fees and hours of operation.
