From Rags to Riches
Aurora, a brown and white tabby cat, was found as a stray and brought to the
Ontario SPCA Orillia Animal Centre, she was then transferred to PEAC through our
Provincial Animal Transfer Program. Aurora turned on the charm and chose her
forever family by showing them just how much she loved them: she nuzzled, she
rubbed up against them and settled down into her new family’s arms.
After experiencing this
mighty display of affection, her new pet parents were ready to commit to loving
her for life, changing her name immediately to Lucy and then heading for home. She
is now being pampered in a wonderful home, with an abundance of food and more
toys than she knows what to do with.
Well done, Lucy, on finding yourself a great forever
home!
