Is your home in need of a new four-legged friend? The Greater Sudbury Animal Shelter may be able to hook you up.
The shelter aims to adopt or foster every dog or cat who comes into its care.
Adoption fees are (maximum) $640 for dogs or $320 for cats. Fees include the cost of spaying/neutering, vaccinations, a one-year dog or cat licence, and microchipping.
“Fees may vary depending on the age, health and needs of the pet,” the shelter says on its website. “For example, an elderly cat or dog may be adopted for a lower fee than a kitten or puppy. Appointments are required for all adoptions.”
To adopt a pet, a driver’s licence or identification showing a current address is required.
This week we’re featuring Captain Canuck, the hero your home needs.
“With a heart as big as the Great White North and a spirit that soars higher than the maple leaf, Captain Canuck is here to protect, purr, and proudly serve as your new best friend,” the shelter said of this four-year-old domestic shorthair tabby, who is neutered and ready for a good home. “Bold, confident, and fiercely loyal, this tabby is always ready to leap into action, whether it's guarding your snacks, defending the couch, or offering superhero-level cuddles after a long day.
“Captain Canuck's superpowers include a never-ending purr motor, lightning-fast zoomies, and the ability to make even the grumpiest days better with a single nuzzle.”
