Did you know today is National Feral Cat Day?

The Ontario SPCA and Humane Society cares about all animals, including community cats! That’s why we have programs to support feral cats and the caretakers who look out for them.

Every year, volunteers build feral cat shelters for caretakers to use. There are only a limited number, but each one gives community cats a safe, warm spot to get through our cold, harsh winters.

Some community cats come into our care and can’t go back to their original colony. So we give them a job! Our working cats have zero interest in being lap cats, but what they lack in social skills, they more than make up for in keeping vermin away. Barns, stables, shops, wineries, breweries, garden centres and warehouses all make great homes for them.

🤍 Meet Apollo & Aries! 🤍

These handsome four-year-old White Swiss Shepherd mixes have come such a long way since arriving in our care. 🥹

When they first arrived, the world felt a little too scary. New people, new surroundings, and learning to trust again were big challenges. But day by day, these gentle boys are showing us that with patience, kindness, and time, beautiful things can happen. 🐾

✨ Wagging tails when we greet them in the morning
✨ Gently taking treats from our hands
✨ Playfully wrestling with each other on their walks

These might seem like little things, but for Apollo and Aries, they’re HUGE milestones. 🤍

We believe these boys have so much potential to blossom in a quiet, patient home where they can decompress, build confidence, and learn that the world can be a safe place.

They don’t need someone to rush them. They need someone who will meet them where they are, celebrate every little victory, and give them the time and space to become the confident, happy dogs we know they can be. 🥹

Could you be the safe place these boys have been waiting for? 🏡

📩 If you think you could offer Apollo and Aries the patient, loving home they deserve, we’d love to hear from you!
