Companion Animal Rescue Effort

Companion Animal Rescue Effort operates a housing program that helps people in Mississauga and the GTA keep their pets when facing homelessness or housing instability. The organization recognizes that many individuals delay leaving unsafe situations because they fear losing their animals, and works to remove that barrier by providing temporary foster care, shelter space, and support services that allow people and their pets to stay together during housing transitions. By maintaining the human-animal bond during crisis periods, the charity enables clients to focus on finding permanent housing without the added trauma of separation from their companions.
