In 2016, the Guelph Humane Society played a local leadership role in the launch of Nature’s Canada national Cats & Birds campaign, served as a pilot location for Cat Healthy’s Healthy Adoption Checklist initiative and further developed our local Working Cat Adoption Program.
The Guelph Humane Society expanded initiatives, knowledge and practices on how we can help more injured, sick and orphaned wildlife. In 2016, 3x’s more wildlife animals were successfully transferred to licensed rehabilitation centers than in the previous year.
The Guelph Humane Society took in 23 different species of Companion and Farm Animals in 2016
In 2016, we had a placement rate of 91%, where 1,408 companion and farm animals were adopted, claimed or transferred.
