Vancouver Orphan Kitten Rescue Association
The Vancouver Orphan Kitten Rescue Association (VOKRA) is a no kill, non-profit cat rescue organization in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, providing trap-neuter-return services to Vancouver and nearby communities.
==History==
In 2000, Karen Duncan and Maria Soroski founded the Vancouver Orphan Kitten Rescue Association (VOKRA) in Vancouver, British Columbia.〔 They first planned to care for very young, mainly bottle-feeding kittens, who rarely survived if found without a mother cat.〔 They soon found that older kittens would do better in foster care, and then included mother cats, both tame and feral, and eventually a full trap-neuter-return program.〔 Initially the organization helped about 150 cats and kittens each year.〔
In 2008, the organization expanded into Surrey;〔"Joytv News - VOKRA", Youtube user Joytv, Jan. 14, 2013.〕 more than half of the incoming cats were from the Surrey area in 2013.〔
By 2014, the organization had grown to over 350 foster homes, helping 1,800 cats annually.〔 In March 2014, the organization opened a new 3,200 square foot (297 sq. m.) operations centre in East Vancouver.〔 The facility contains four pods, each with its own air supply to prevent disease from spreading.〔 The centre can handle up to 50 cats for short stays of usually one to three days, before the cats go to foster care.〔 The centre is also used for recovery of feral cats after their spay/neuter surgery.〔
