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.

“When Cat Bus first arrived at our shelter, he was in rough shape. Obese, severely matted, and so tangled that we couldn't even tell if he was neutered!” the shelter said. “At first glance, he seemed grumpy and withdrawn, but we soon realized he was just uncomfortable.”
After a careful shave under sedation, the shelter saw his true colors shine through.
“With proper care, love and a healthy diet, he's transformed into a happy, thriving cat! He's lost weight, his coat is growing back beautifully, and his personality shines through every day.
“Now, Cat Bus is ready for his second chance at life, and he's hoping it's with you!”
