Daisy & Cleo

Sisters "Daisy" (renamed "Cassie") and "Cleo" will be staying together as they join their new adoptive family.

The two little kitties were originally brought into the Ontario SPCA Lennox & Addington Branch as part of a litter of nine kittens.

They are already feeling right at home in their new surroundings:

"The kittens are happy, healthy, and full of energy. They love their treats and exploring their new environment. Plastic lids are always a welcome toy and hanging from the cat tree or helping make the bed are fun things to do.”

We are so happy to see these two sisters find their new forever home together.

Tips for Student Volunteers

The fall is a great time to volunteer, whether it’s for community hours or for job experience.

The Ontario SPCA receives hundreds of student volunteer applications every year; therefore it’s important that your application stands out.

If you are a high school student looking for a position within the Ontario SPCA, there are things you can do!

The most important tip is to complete every section of the online application form.

Apply early! If you need hours for the coming year, don’t wait until the end of the first semester to apply. 

Positions are limited and the volunteer recruitment process can take a month or more to complete.

Volunteer positions can pop up at anytime, so check the website regularly so you don’t miss out!
