The Problem
Every day, dozens of kittens are born outdoors in British Columbia without a home, proper nutrition, or medical care. In just four months, these kittens can also reproduce, continuing the cycle of overpopulation.
40% of lost cats never return home, contributing to the overpopulation crisis.
Four out of five cats that go missing are not spayed or neutered.
Many stray cats were once lost pets that never made it home.
How We Can Fix It
The most effective way to end this cycle is through TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return). By sterilizing community cats as soon as they are found, we prevent future litters and improve their quality of life.

Cat Fosters
Fosters are essential to everything we do. By opening your home to a cat or kitten in need, you provide a safe and loving place for them to grow, recover, and prepare for adoption.
Every Foster Need Is Different
for many comfort levels. ♡
Neonatal kittens requiring bottle or tube feeding
Pregnant cats and mothers with kittens
Kittens growing until they are ready for adoption
Adult cats needing time to adjust and build confidence
Cats recovering from illness, injury, or medical treatment
Cats needing a temporary break from the shelter or adoption centre environment
Abby Cat Daddy Provides
Abby Cat Daddy provides the food, litter, supplies, veterinary care, and ongoing guidance needed for each foster placement.
A Safe Place to Grow
Foster families provide a safe indoor space, daily care, socialization, transportation to scheduled appointments when required, and regular updates about the cat’s health and progress.
You Don’t Need to Be an Expert
Experience is helpful, but it is not required for every foster placement. We work to match each foster with cats that suit their experience, availability, household, and comfort level.
Every Placement Is Different
Fostering can last anywhere from a few weeks to several months, depending on the needs of the cat. Every placement creates space for us to help another local cat in need.

Improve Safety for Cats
With Better Bylaws
Countless rescues and volunteer TNR (Trap, Neuter, Return) groups work on taking in feral kittens and stray cats in an effort to make a dent in the overpopulation of stray, feral and abandoned cats in their communities.
This work includes spaying and neutering adult cats found without owners.
We are looking for more support and protection for the local ecosystems that cats can impact, the cats themselves, permanent identification through microchips and tattoos, and getting owned cats spayed or neutered to help prevent overpopulation.
We are petitioning local and provincial governments to implement a pet registry for cats, similar to existing dog licensing programs. This would help ensure cats receive fair treatment, are properly identified, and receive the care they need.

Logan Bryan
My name is Logan Bryan, and I am the Founder of Abby Cat Daddy The Feline Advocate Society. The death of my beloved soul cat Leo is what pushed me into cat rescue and changed the direction of my life. As a vegan, I felt a deep responsibility to do more than adopt and provide care on an individual level. I began my rescue work through Trap Neuter Return, which remains the backbone of Abby Cat Daddy today.
I am deeply committed to reducing suffering through ethical rescue, prevention, and community based solutions that protect cats and support the people who care for them.
Sharon Bison
Sharon Bison is a Director at Abby Cat Daddy The Feline Advocate Society and the Owner and Entrepreneur behind Teddy Bear Dreams, a beloved dance clothing store built on creativity, care, and community. With a strong passion for supporting local initiatives, Sharon brings both business insight and heart to her role at ACD, helping strengthen programs that protect and advocate for cats in need.
At home, Sharon is happily kept company by her cat Toby, who reminds her daily why compassion and community driven work matter so much.
Raylene Mumford
My name is Raylene Mumford, and I have a lifelong passion for rescuing and caring for animals. For decades, my family and I have opened our hearts and homes to animals in need, offering safety, compassion, and a second chance at life. That tradition continues today with my own rescue, a spirited 12-year-old who keeps me on my toes and reminds me daily why this work matters.
Supporting and advocating for animals has always been close to my heart, and I am deeply committed to continuing that work in every way I can.
