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.

One of the animals available for adoption at the moment is Zeus, a seven-year-old male American bulldog mix with a distinctive brindle coat.
“Zeus is an affectionate boy who absolutely thrives with company, both human and canine,” the post about the pooch reads. “However, Zeus does have some challenges.”
Because he suffers from separation anxiety, Zeus needs a special family to help him feel secure when left alone.
“Zeus is looking for a home where someone is around most of the time, or one with another dog to keep him company while you're away so a home with another dog would be ideal for him,” the post reads. “Zeus is currently untested with cats and children.
If you're experienced with dogs who need extra support, Zeus will reward you with endless love and affection!”
