 Hook
 
Three Legs and Still Full of Play

Our team at the Ontario SPCA Kent County Branch were happy to help “Hook”, a sweet but injured feline who was missing a front paw. It was determined he was in significant discomfort and needed further medical intervention, so one of our amazing veterinary partners stepped up and amputated the leg to make him more comfortable. Once he recovered, his wonderful personality began to shine and he was adopted. His new family renamed him “Paw” and he is very happy in his loving new home!

Sue Dedicates Years of Service to our Shelter

Sue Marshall began volunteering with the Ontario SPCA in Chatham in the early 1970s by helping with bingo and bake sales. She has continued working charity bingos, volunteering at the bingo hall and managing the accounts. Sue loves animals, and has a 15-year-old cat named “Babe”. She wants to do whatever she can to help.

Thanks Sue for your many years of dedicated service to the animals of the Ontario SPCA Kent County Branch.

 Students
 
High School Students Donate Over $880

The grade 12 Business Leadership Class at John McGregor Secondary School is learning what it means to be involved in the community. The class was divided into groups, three of which selected the Ontario SPCA as their charity of choice, wanting to help make a difference in the lives of animals. Through several fundraisers, including bake sales and basket raffles, the students raised over $880 for the Ontario SPCA Kent County Branch!

We are touched by their dedication and support, and are glad to know these are Chatham-Kent’s future business leaders!

iAdopt for Spring

The Ontario SPCA invites you to drop in to your local shelter to Meet Your Match® during their “iAdopt for Spring” adoption campaign running until the end of April. 

All adult cats are $99 starting April 17th, 2015
until the end of the month.

The goal during the iAdopt for Spring campaign is to get as many animals as possible into their loving forever homes.  

Spring is the perfect time to friend  home. 

Visit your local Ontario SPCA Branch and give an animal a second chance at happiness.
