We can't believe Sally is still available!

This adorable bunny is more like a cat. She is sweet, smart and playful. Currently in foster care, her fosters have nothing but good things to say about her.

"Sally is a very friendly bunny who enjoys when our family chats around her cage. She runs out of her house when we walk up to it to see if she can get some pets, a piece of lettuce or some free roaming time. We let her out once a day when we can watch her. She loves hopping free around our living room and kitchen. She uses her litter box, and we only find one or two droppings in the cage, but never around the house when she is free roaming. Sally communicates her dislike by making things out of order in her pen: towels, food bowls and toys tossed around. When she feels comfortable she enjoys being petted by closing her eyes and soaking in the connection. She also likes being flopped down and stretched out when she gets the type of fluffy blankets and towels that she prefers, or when we clean the litter box. The fresh smell of hay makes her happy. She is very attentive to what is happening around her, and loves basking in the sun that shines in through the windows. She loves lettuce, carrots and cucumbers. She hops on and off the box in her pen and really enjoys her playtime. Sally is a joy to have and a great addition to a family or person who can provide physical contact, and free time for her outside of her playpen. She is a fun bunny."

UP FOR ADOPTION ❤

Looking for the sweetest treat this Halloween?🎃 Meet Juno!🐾

Juno is a 6-month-old Shepherd cross who might just be the sweetest pup you'll ever meet. This little girl has the manners of an old soul, is incredibly polite, and seems wise beyond her puppy years.

Juno has the best of both worlds. She is independent and content doing her own thing, but absolutely loves her humans and is exceptional at making new dog friends. In fact, having another canine companion in her forever home would be ideal, as playing and spending time with other dogs seems to be the highlight of her day! She hasn't been exposed to cats, but her foster believes she is so kind-hearted that she would get along with any animal given a slow introduction.

She has plenty of puppy energy and loves to get out and explore, but she also knows when it's time to relax. She is kennel trained and happily heads off to her kennel when it's time to be tucked in for the night, sleeping right through until morning when she's ready to head outside for her morning potty break.

Juno is almost completely house trained. She'll go as soon as you ask her to, and is learning to ring the bell when she needs to go outside. She hasn't quite mastered asking to go out on her own just yet, but she is catching on quickly - learning from her canine foster siblings. She'll also let you know when she's ready to come back inside with a little bark.

This clever girl is food motivated, making training a breeze. She already knows "sit" and "paw," responds well to "no," and is eager to learn. She's also been wonderfully respectful in her foster home, with no inappropriate chewing. She loves her toys, although her idea of playing with them is taking every last one out of the toy bin and scattering them throughout the house. Apparently, interior decorating is one of her talents!

Juno walks impressively well on leash, and has enjoyed off-leash time with her canine foster siblings, happily following their lead.

She's still building confidence when it comes to getting into the vehicle, but once she's in, she enjoys the ride!

Juno would make an incredible addition to just about any family willing to give her the love, guidance and enrichment a growing puppy needs. Walks, adventures and regular opportunities to visit and play with other dogs are important to her happiness.

If you're looking for a sweet, smart companion to grow alongside your family, Juno might just be your perfect match. She is currently in foster, so keep in mind that a meet and greet would have to be arranged.

Who could say no to a face and ears like that? ❤

Meet Tabs ❤

At just four years young, Tabs is ready to leave his days as a stray behind and find a place to call home.

This incredibly sweet boy absolutely loves attention and affection. He may be a little shy when first meeting you, but give him a bit of time and patience, and you'll discover a sensitive soul with so much love to give. He's also VERY food motivated, so treats are definitely the way to his heart!

Tabs does have a few special considerations when it comes to finding his perfect match. He isn't a fan of sharing his space with other cats, so he'd do best as the only feline in the home. We are also looking for a home with older children or no children, as Tabs can be a little protective around his food and sensitive when touched around his mouth and hips. We suspect this may be related to a previously healed injury from his time outdoors.

We know theres someone out there for this handsome man. Interested in meeting Tabs? Apply today at https://ontariospca.ca/adopt/tabs-2000498222/ visit us at 1535 Rosslyn Road, or contact our team at (807) 475-8803 Option for more information 🐾
