Adorable bunnies find new homes

There’s nothing we love more than a story with a happy ending!

Two tiny baby Netherland Dwarf-mix rabbits were found in a shed on a property that had been recently purchased, along with their mother and another rabbit.

After being brought to the Ontario SPCA Orangeville & District Branch, the little guys were later named “Bambi” and “Floppy”, and our staff loved seeing them grow, explore and thrive!

Once Bambi and Floppy were mature enough, they were ready to be put up for adoption and have since found their new forever homes.

Moyra has a passion for helping animals

This month’s volunteer spotlight for the Ontario SPCA Orangeville & District Branch is Moyra. 

Moyra has been with our branch for over a year, and has consistently demonstrated her hard work ethic and love for animals, especially the cats!

Moyra arrives early in the mornings to help with animal care, and our staff always enjoy her company.

Moyra’s generous donation of her time and care is just another sterling example of how others can support the animals in our shelter.

Thank you Moyra for all of your efforts and for being a part of our team!

We would like to thank the Saint Mark’s Youth Group from Saint Mark’s Anglican Church in Orangeville for their recent fundraiser benefiting the Ontario SPCA Orangeville & District Branch.

The ambitious teenaged members participated in a 29-hour famine fundraiser this past May, raising over $1,000 for the animals in the care of our branch!

Past adoptee “Monty”, a puppy who was born and raised in the branch, stopped by with his new owner to pay the group a visit and thank them for their efforts with happy tail wags. He was a big hit with the youth group members!

Thank you again everyone from Saint Mark’s for your generous donation, and for choosing us as your fundraiser’s recipient. The animals extend their gratitude!
