Spending time with pets has a lot of benefits for our mood and even physical health. Life is simply better with pets. At the OHS, we asked: how can we bring the joy and therapeutic benefits of pets into our community?
I’m writing this after an all-day marathon to sterilize homeless dogs and cats. In the end, our incredible team at the Ottawa Humane Society managed to spay and neuter 39 pets in need today!
This was no small effort and was a part of World Spay Day. At the OHS we celebrate World Spay Day the same way year after year — with a massive push to help break the cycle of homeless animals. When pets have unwanted litters, it often leads to suffering for kittens and puppies who have nowhere else to turn and no one to care for them.
Just today, I was contacted by a supporter who asked me who they should vote for to do the most for animal welfare. At the OHS, we don’t stand for any one political party. We stand for the animals — enthusiastically supporting efforts to improve animal welfare and staunchly opposing attempts to harm animals, ignore or undermine the importance of their well-being. Throughout the years, we’ve seen successes and setbacks regardless of which party is in office.
