As Ottawa braces for the weekend’s ice storm, the Ottawa Humane Society is warning pet owners about the dangers extreme weather can pose to pets — especially cats allowed to roam outdoors.
The OHS is encouraging members of the public who find stray cats in distress to contact 613-725-3166 ext. 223 to ensure the cat can return home safely or to arrange for the cat to be brought to the OHS. If a cat is in immediate danger, call Ottawa By-law Services at 3-1-1.
