NEWS UPDATES IN ANIMAL WELFARE

One Man’s Friendship Leaves a Lasting Legacy

310-SPCA Makes Reporting Animal Cruelty Easier 310-SPCA is the 24/7 call centre for reporting animal cruelty concerns. Implemented in April 2014, the call centre has received over 22,800 calls in the first year of service!

Should anyone have any concerns for the welfare of an animal in Ontario, they are encouraged to call 310-SPCA. A trained operator will gather all the information reported and ensure an appropriate response.

Ontario SPCA’s Major Case Management Team It has been one year since the implementation of the Major Case Management Team. Under the supervision of the Deputy Chief, Major Case Management, a seven member team, has been assembled and trained in specialized areas such as: forensic identification, photography/videography, livestock, body recovery, entomology, media relations and first aid training. Through continued development and training, this specialized team is well equipped to respond to large removals, major cases and emergencies on short notice to ensure distress is addressed efficiently and effectively.

The Major Case Management Team was deployed 16 times to assist with various cases across the province, during its inaugural year. This team is available to respond at any given time to assist Ontario SPCA Communities, Municipalities or other agencies!

Zoo Registry Update!

The Ontario SPCA has established a provincial zoo registry and identified 62 known zoos in Ontario. This registry involves a cooperative zoo inspection led by the Ontario SPCA zoo inspectors. These inspections have been both announced and unannounced and are conducted during both the open and closed seasons. The Ontario SPCA will continue to build this registry and conduct zoo inspections each year. This initiative is helping to establish working relationships with zoos across Ontario and helps to address Animal Welfare concerns when they arise.

Alex Hunt was not only a long time donor, but also an adopter and friend to the Society. As a regular supporter, Alex would tell everyone how he enjoyed seeing his funds at work and hearing the stories of how he has helped the animals.

Kevin MacKenzie, Development Manager for Leadership Giving, recalls sitting with him regularly over coffee to discuss stories from the frontline staff and what amazing work is being done across the province. This relationship also nurtured an adoption of a new cat; a wonderful feline friend that was with Alex until Alex’s passing this past year.

The Society was saddened to hear of this news and kept their promise to care for and rehome his cat, “Toby”. As his last gift to Animal Welfare, Alex left a significant legacy gift of 75% of his estate in his will to the Society, a major commitment to the animals across Ontario. Alex’s memory will live on in the work that is done province wide to enhance

New Livestock Trailer The Ontario SPCA responds to an average of 1,870 concerns for livestock each year.

There are situations where horses, cows, or even goats may need to be transported from one location to another. Thanks to the Donner Canadian Foundation, the Ontario SPCA is pleased to share the news of our new Rescue & Relief™ Livestock Trailer. This new trailer is 25 feet in length, plus the gooseneck which can be used for storage of equipment. It includes two internal dividers that allow Officers to separate the trailer into three sections increasing the trailer’s functionality and versatility. A planned 160 linear feet of penning will be mounted on the sides which can be utilized to contain animals or create a chute to load animals in to the trailer, making a more comfortable loading process for the animals. This new resource will be available to assist all of the Ontario SPCA Communities across the province, and is a great addition to our Rescue

Provincial Investigations Building, Exotic Wildlife In collaboration with the Ontario SPCA, the Welland & District SPCA has established a provincial shelter facility dedicated to the housing and care of exotic wildlife. The location of this specialized resource is not disclosed and is available to any Ontario SPCA Community for exotic wildlife that come into their care. The facility is operated by experienced, trained staff who work with a network of experts to address the needs of animals that come into the facility. This facility is a first for Animal Welfare in Canada in addressing the specialized care required by exotic wildlife.

Cupcake Day was a Sweet Success!

In its third year, National Cupcake Day™ for SPCAs and Humane Societies was once again a huge success. With over 54 participating Societies, $550,000 was raised across Canada to help animals in need. That’s a lot of cupcakes! The Ontario SPCA was pleased to partner with celebrity baker Anna Olson to help promote this annual event. In addition to sharing the importance of supporting Animal Welfare across the province, Anna also created a unique Ontario SPCA Cupcake Day Recipe and even a recipe for the four legged companions.

Food for Feral Cats The Ontario SPCA is always looking for ways we can support Animal Welfare programs.

There are many individuals who volunteer their time and money to care for feral cat colonies in their communities. The Society wanted to find a way to help support these dedicated individuals and the animals they care for. The Feral Cat Food Bank is located at Provincial Office and provides free cat food for feral cat colony managers that have participated in the Toronto Feral Cat Coalition’s “Feral Cat Management” program. The food has all been donated by our generous supporters. It’s a great initiative that helps cats in local communities.

Guidelines for Standards of Care in Animal Shelters

The Canadian Standards of Care in Animal Shelters provides Animal Welfare organizations across Canada with a comprehensive tool that helps align their activities with recommended practices on all aspects of care. The Ontario SPCA Shelter Health & Wellness team has been working to help Ontario SPCA Communities as well as municipal shelters, utilize these guidelines and raise awareness for opportunities for a healthier shelter environment. Through a consultation process, the team works with staff within shelters to share best practices and identify opportunities to apply these best practices to their own unique facility.

In 2009, the Ontario SPCA introduced high-volume spay/ neuter services to the province of Ontario. Since the inaugural clinic opened, another five clinics have been established by the Ontario SPCA and its Affiliated Societies.

In 2014, Ontario SPCA shelters saw a reduction in cat in-take of 19% and some of our shelters have reported cat in-take reductions of 40 to 50%! Encouraged by these results, the Ontario SPCA and its Communities are working together to expand access to spay/neuter services and to develop a mobile spay/neuter service for First Nations Communities, with a focus on remote and northern areas.

The Lincoln County Humane Society has taken an old board room and renovated it into a new cat adoption room! This interactive adoption area has an entrance shaped like a cat and houses 24 oversized white cages with plexiglas on one side. The glass allows people to see the animals but helps prevent the spread of disease. In addition, the 11-square-foot cages have portals to litter boxes that are hidden from public view. The cat rooms are designed to be larger to help create a less stressful environment for the animals while they wait for their forever homes!

Because there’s no gift greater than the

love of an animal.

Let’s all Pledge to Have NO HOT PETS! The award winning “No Hot Pets” campaign was back in 2014 and was a resounding success! With over 20 million online impressions and close to 12,000 people pledging not to leave their pets in their vehicles, the campaign exceeded all of our expectations. The Society wants to thank the 41 participating SPCAs and Humane Societies, 50 community partners and 22 car dealerships for helping to save pets from harm. 2015 is expected to reach even higher numbers with close to 100 SPCAs and Humane Societies! The campaign not only shares the dangers of leaving pets in hot cars but also informs the public of the laws that protect these animals. Let’s all remember, there is no good excuse to leave your pet unattended in a vehicle! Visit nohotpets.ca to learn more about this very important campaign.

iAdopt Helps Animals Find Homes Through True Adoption Stories!

The national adoption campaign, “iAdopt” was successfully launched last year.

The program was met with great success, increasing adoptions of 10% on average from the same time the previous year. The holiday campaign, “iAdopt for the Holidays”, generated a great response for the holiday contest. Adopters shared their life-changing adoption stories and readers could then vote on their favourite story. The winners will be featured in the 2015 iAdopt for the Holidays campaign.

Promoting Adoptions one Litter Box at a Time!

Once again the Society is pleased to partner with Arm & Hammer on our iAdopt campaign. Arm & Hammer understands how important it is for cats to be comfortable in their home, especially with their litterbox. Together with Ontario SPCA shelters across the province, Arm & Hammer will be promoting the importance of adoptions and providing each new cat adopter with a free box of Arm & Hammer kitty litter during our designated iAdopt campaigns. The kitty litter donation is designed to help the animal transition into their new home smoothly, allowing the family time to bond without litterbox issues. Thank you Arm & Hammer for helping these new families!

TSC Stores support animals across Ontario one Hoof & Paw at a time Ontario SPCA Communities and TSC Stores have been in partnership for the past year, and what an exciting year it has been! By offering customers a paper paw or hoof to sign and mount on the store wall for two dollars each, TSC Stores managed to raise over $90,000 through four events throughout the year. The money raised from each store will support their local Ontario SPCA Community shelter. The Ontario SPCA is thrilled with this partnership and the support TSC Stores has provided towards Animal Welfare in their local communities. Working together the team is hoping to raise $100,000 in 2015 for Animal Welfare!

Royal Canin feeds our Shelters Thousands of animals come into the care of the Ontario SPCA every year. Feeding a consistent high quality diet is paramount to our standards of care. We are thrilled to announce that Royal Canin Canada is our official feeding partner at all our branches across the province! This new collaborative partnership is truly changing the lives of animals in our care while also enhancing our staff and volunteers’ education about pet nutrition through Royal Canin’s extensive education and training programs.

More Great Collaboration in the Livestock Industry Over the past few years the Ontario SPCA is pleased to have developed great working relationships with a variety of livestock commodity groups on addressing agricultural Animal Welfare concerns across Ontario. The Society is excited to announce that additional partnerships have been made this year. In addition to the Memorandums of Agreement (MOA) made with dairy, chicken, beef, pork, veal, and sheep producers of Ontario, the Society has new MOA’s with the Ontario Racing Commission, Ontario Goat, and Fur Breeders of Ontario. Working together with the goal to help animals in need, the MOAs have been a huge success.

(Vulnerable Animals Left Unattended Everyday) is a crime prevention initiative designed to share the laws that address areas of concerns such as: animals left unattended in vehicles, abandonment, having suitable sheltering and safety while travelling with an animal. The Ontario SPCA has partnered with the Ontario Association of Chiefs of Police, Ontario Provincial Police, Toronto Police, York Regional Police, Crime Stoppers, Ontario Veterinary Medical Association and the Ontario Association of Veterinary Technicians. Operation V.A.L.U.E. began in 2012 in the York Region/Greater Toronto Area and has continued into 2015, where it has moved towards a provincial initiative, with events planned throughout the province.

The new province-wide partnership with Crime Stoppers is the latest way we can all work to help more animals. This new partnership is designed to help alleviate the pressure on police service resources regarding cruelty reporting for Animal Welfare concerns. The Crime Stoppers team will contact the Society and Ontario SPCA officers

AMEX Canada Give Back #amexcares Volunteers assist the Ontario SPCA in many ways throughout the year! As a commitment to the community, AMEX Canada staff have shown their support for Animal Welfare by offering their volunteer services! Two teams of over 50 people participated in clean up days at the Provincial Education & Animal Centre, in Newmarket, helping to paint the shelter walls, clean the building after the winter weather and help build a garden to grow fresh veggies for the small animals staying in the shelter. This program was such a success that a second team of AMEX staff volunteered a day at the AMEX Canada head office to make over 100 cat and dog toys for the animals in the shelter.

Thank you AMEX Canada for your continued support - your commitment is helping make the animals more comfortable while they are in our care!

Spay Neuter Services in North Bay The North Bay & District Humane Society is proud to announce the opening of the ‘North Bay & District Humane Society Pet Clinic’ at its current shelter location (2060 Main Street West, North Bay). This milestone was made possible through the generosity of PetSmart Charities of Canada and donors of the North Bay & District Humane Society.

The clinic will allow the Humane Society to provide spay/neuter services to the public for their pets, as well as providing access to spay/neuter services to other Animal Welfare organizations, First Nations Communities and remote communities.

“This project is a milestone in the history of the organization that was established in 1954. The opening of the clinic will be a great addition to the operation and enhances our core mandate and mission to ‘Provide, Protect & Educate’,” said Daryl Vaillancourt, Executive Director, North Bay & District Humane Society.

Thunder Bay & District Humane Society “Taking the Lead” to Help Pet Overpopulation

MARS Canada Warms our Hearts and Homeless Cats in Ontario Feral cats are often forgotten and left out in the cold. The Ontario SPCA’s Shelter Health & Wellness team have a new initiative to help give these felines a warm place to sleep at night. The team has designed homemade shelters that are sold to feral cat community managers at cost. They are insulated and allow the feral felines easy access in and out of the cold. They have been such a huge success that the demand for more of these homemade homes is increasing.

Working with our Volunteer Department, we shared this initiative with our friends at MARS Canada and their staff has not only volunteered to help build more shelters but also financially contributed to this program! Another great example of how corporate volunteers and working together, can help better Animal Welfare.

Closing the gap on the pet overpopulation crisis happens one pet at a time – through spaying and neutering. There is a great need for an accessible spay and neuter clinic in the Thunder Bay area and northwest Ontario region. There are currently no available clinic options between North Bay and the Manitoba border, which makes the need for spay/neuter services essential to the Thunder Bay area.

The “Take the Lead” initiative, involving Animal Welfare partners, the Ontario SPCA and the Thunder Bay & District Humane Society, is an exciting fundraising campaign, with a goal of opening a new spay/neuter service in the region!

The Ontario SPCA is pleased to see more communities working to provide spay/ neuter services across the province.

Giving Northern Dogs a Second Chance This past spring, the Ontario SPCA and the Timmins & District Humane Society were contacted by a local rescue group to assist in the transfer of 14 homeless dogs found in a First Nations Community. Our Animal Welfare teams quickly gathered our resources and most of the dogs were transferred down to the Provincial Education & Animal Centre, in Newmarket, where they received medical treatment before being placed for adoption. We are pleased to report that all the dogs have found loving new homes! This is a great example of how working together in Animal Welfare can achieve success for animals in need.

Spay/Neuter Initiative Supports Pet Owners of Six Nations of the Grand River Earlier this year, the Six Nations Elected Council and our friends at the Welland & District SPCA signed an agreement for regular spay/neuter clinics utilizing the new Mobile Spay/ Neuter Unit.

On April 18-19th 2015, a milestone event took place on Six Nations of the Grand River. The Ontario SPCA is pleased to report the success of the first ever Mobile Spay/Neuter clinic.

The event was the first opportunity to use the new mobile unit, with the intent of expanding the scope of the service delivery model to other First Nations Communities, focused in northern Ontario.

The clinic was run by a team of volunteers from the organizations involved. Inspector John Greer of the Welland & District SPCA, along with local veterinarian Dr. Tammy Hornak, were the lead organizers for the project who worked with Six Nations Animal Control Services Supervisor, Penny Hill and Animal Control Officer, Lyall Martin.

The Ontario SPCA provided volunteers and resources.

Ontario SPCA Chief Veterinary Officer, Dr. Magdalena Smrdelj provided health checks and monitored the animals during recovery.

The event was made possible due to the generous donations of many local volunteers including veterinarians, veterinary surgeons, technicians, and supporters of the Welland & District SPCA and of the Ontario SPCA.
