Every day, many pets are found that have been abandoned or lost. Loving, faithful pets like Butterscotch are often discarded by owners, sometimes found wandering outside, struggling to survive or are found injured or pregnant and completely alone.

Each homeless pet on this website has his/her own story, but all are in desperate need of temporary foster, and of course permanent loving homes where they can get the attention and love they deserve. Time is of the essence as animals in pounds normally only have three days to be claimed. After this, they are usually either euthanized or sold for research.

If you would like to give a foster or permanent home to one of our animals or make a donation that will help save countless lives (a tax receipt can be issued), please email: petrescue@hurontel.on.ca or phone: Kathi (6 p.m. – 11 p.m. ET) at (519) 528-3045 (our Call Centre in Lucknow, Ontario). Please give us a detailed message of the breed, age, sex, and size of the animal you are interested in or have lost.
