How are we similar?
• Annual intake, high live release rate• Animal Control right next door• Large modern buildings• Well-resourced

How are we different?
• EHS - stray holding facility for areas surrounding Edmonton
• EHS - Animal Protection department• Community cats / TNR still a radical concept in
Alberta• Main challenge to C4C in Edmonton is cats, at
SFSPCA, dogs.• SF SPCA- 2 public facing hospitals

Staffing Shortages –all shelters
• Do what you can. Staying within your capacity for animal numbers will help when short staffed
• Focus on what is most important
• Recognize limitations, set realistic goals
• Capacity for care is fluid – drops when staffing levels drop
• Train workers to recognize the early signs of stress, burn out and compassion fatigue and provide resources and flexible scheduling

MANAGED INTAKE -BASIC MATHIf an average of 5 cats get adopted per day, and the shelter is housing 250 cats, how long will on average each cat stay before getting adopted?
50 days (250 cats / 5 cats adopted per day)
If the shelter has 50 cats and adopts out on average 5 per day, how long will each cat stay on average?
10 days (50 cats / 5 cats per day)
Result: same number of cats helped!

Removing Barriers to OutcomesMy adoption took two hours!
I spent an hour working with a volunteer to find my best match, then spoke to an adoption counsellor and found out I couldn’t adopt the same dog!
It took half an hour for them to read me the medical record, I didn’t understand any of it!
I waited three hours to meet an animal.
I met an animal than found out they had already been adopted.
