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.

Please Note: We will be opening later than usual today and will open at 12:00 PM.

Thank you for your understanding and patience. We look forward to seeing you this afternoon!
