GHS Growing Garden Plant Drive

Now you can grow your garden while helping vulnerable animals in our community! Join us for the GHS Growing Garden Plant Drive on Saturday, May 14th at our new facility at 190 Hanlon Creek Blvd.

100% of the proceeds will be donated back to the animals in our care.

Get your patio ready for summer with four (4) different plant baskets and potters to choose from. All four options will have many different flowers to select, so they are great for any space!

Place your pre-order by May 9th to ensure you get the plants you want! There will be some extra plants available on the day of the event, but they will be sold on a first-come first-served basis.

Please select which plants you would like, complete the registration and payment, and pick up your order at GHS on Saturday, May 14th between 8:00am to 12:30pm. (Taxes are included in pricing.)

Note: there will be no refunds on plant orders. Any of the orders that are not picked up during the plant drive are subject to resale.

Questions? Please reach out to  Events@guelphhumane.ca.

Thank you for supporting the animals in our care!

The PURR-fect Adoption Event!

Come and join us this Saturday, August 29 for our Purrfect Feline Adoption Event!

Visit 500 Wellington St. W. this Saturday and find your new fantastic feline. We will have a variety of cats available for adoption in a safe, COVID-friendly environment. Receive $100 worth of food to bring home with your new furry friend!*

If you plan on joining us, please keep in mind the following:

1) You must bring a mask and a cat carrier (so you can bring your feline friend home). We hope you’ll have your cell phone on hand too as we don’t want too many people waiting in line.

2) Check out our available cats <below or at https://guelphhumane.ca/adopt/available-animals/ > and if one stands out to you, please ensure you read all of its information. If you are interested in a kitty (or 2), please fill out an EOI form below, this does not guarantee adoption, however, it simplifies your adoption process.

3) We will be doing 15-minute meet and greets with up to 2 cats of your choice. This will allow you a chance to ask questions and see the cat’s purrsonality firsthand!

4) It is a “first come, first serve” style of event. We will do our best to accommodate everyone’s first choice of cat, however, we reserve the right to ultimately match the cat with the best home possible. Don’t worry – we will do our very best to match you with the cat that is purrfect for your family!

5) Thank you in advance for your patience! We developed many new processes due to COVID. We are working hard to ensure everything goes smoothly.

 

*Senior and special diet cats are excluded. Please chat with a GHS staff member for more information.
