The Ontario SPCA is an integral part of each community, promoting mutually beneficial human-animal interactions, and is viewed as a desirable organization for volunteerism and support.
The future for Ontario that the Ontario SPCA is working to help create:

our goal
2014 ANNUAL REPORT TO our Communities

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.
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.
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.
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!

The national adoption campaign, “iAdopt” was successfully launched last year. Through sharing the real experience of life changing adoptions, the program’s goal is to generate awareness of the benefits of adoption and increase adoption in shelters across Canada. 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. To read these great stories visit iAdopt.ca.
Proof that Spay/Neutering Pets Helps Reduce Pet Overpopulation! 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.
NEWS UPDATES IN ANIMAL WELFARE
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.
New Home for the Adoption Dogs in Barrie The generosity of our supporters never ceases to amaze us. The Ontario SPCA Barrie Branch had a flood last year that required extensive repairs to the dog adoption room. Through the generosity of two major donors, one of whom is an ongoing supporter of the Society’s major shelter initiatives, we were able to build a new dog adoption area! The new room helps create a less stressful environment for the animals while they wait
Because there’s no gift greater than the
love of an animal.
There are many good reasons to adopt a pet this holiday season.

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.
Canadian 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.

iAdopt Helps Animals Find Homes Through True Adoption Stories!
Lincoln County Humane Society’s new Adoption Room is the Cat’s Meow 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!
