"Marabelle" Needs a Home
   
“Marabelle” is a sweet, loving orange tabby cat that was surrendered to the Ontario SPCA Muskoka Animal Centre in early June.

Sadly, Marabelle’s owner had become ill and was no longer able to care for her.

She is two years old, has been spayed and is up to date on her vaccinations. Marabelle loves the company of other cats and we feel she would enjoy the company of children as well.

If you are thinking about adding a feline friend to your family then Marabelle might be the one for you.

For more information on Marabelle please call the shelter at 705-645-6225.

 Garage Sale Success
 
Thanks to our volunteers, the annual Ontario SPCA Muskoka Animal Centre’s "Bargains Hounds Garage-and-Bake Sale" was once again a huge success.

In spite of pouring rain, a power outage and a number of other setbacks, our volunteers helped raise $ 6,557 dollars at this event.

Our volunteers also spent days sorting, pricing, organizing and cleaning up, and we couldn’t have done it without them.

Thanks so much for all who donated items, attended the sale, or volunteered; we all had a great time, got some great bargains and raised funds for a great cause. It just doesn’t get any better than that!

Hope to see everyone again next year and thanks again!

The Animals Thank You

Congratulations to Sara and Gracen for their birthday fundraising efforts!

These two twins asked for donations for the Ontario SPCA Muskoka Animal Centre’s animals instead of gifts for their 6th birthday.

We are always really thrilled when we have a chance to meet our young animal advocates and it’s reassuring to know that animals in need will be loved and cared for by generations to come!

We can only hope that these two bighearted youngsters set an example for their friends!

A big thank-you to Sara and Gracen for supporting homeless animals!

Volunteers can now manage their own schedule!
 
Ontario SPCA volunteers can now update their contact information and manage their own schedule all from home.

The Ontario SPCA has launched a new online software system called "Better Impact"; this system is especially designed to manage volunteers and provide a more efficient way of communicating.
As a volunteer you can sign up for shifts, inform us of any vacations, log hours, or change your phone number all from your home.

Volunteers just need an email address and access to the internet to get started.

For more information see you branch for details or log into www.myvolunteer.page.com to create your web page.
