Holly is ready to come home
Last month, a sweet little 10-year-old Beagle arrived in our care as a stray and was in need of some care. She had a mammary tumor that was quite evident and needed to be removed, as well as a fractured tooth that needed to be extracted. This senior gal was a real trooper and came through surgery with flying colors.
Holly is now ready to find her forever home and live out her golden years. Please come by the Animal Centre to meet her.
Holly’s cost of surgery and recovery was unexpected. Please consider donating to the Ontario SPCA Orillia Animal Centre and help other animals like Holly get the second chance they deserve. |
Nacho’s Happy Ending
Do you remember Nacho, our curious little kitten who has to undergo surgery to remove several items that he ingested? Well this little grazer has fully recovered and met his match.
Nacho is settling in nicely to his wonderful new home where his mom will keep a close eye on him and make sure he can’t access any small items! We are so happy for Nacho!
Thank you to everyone who donated towards his care and helped spread the word. There are still many animals waiting to find their new family. Will you open your heart and home? |
