Each year the Ontario SPCA rescues thousands of animals from neglect, abuse and abandonment - and each year thousands of people step forward to support the Ontario SPCA and give deserving and courageous animals a second chance. Read through some of the many stories we receive from the wonderful people that have adopted Ontario SPCA animals and share in their joyful tales.

Stories should be no more than 350 words and should include the Ontario SPCA Branch or affiliated Humane Society where your pet was adopted and the adoption date. Please include your contact information (phone and/or email address).
