We've got some new furry faces at HSKL, and they are ready to steal hearts and find their forever homes! Check out this adorable lineup:

✨ Bruce — Once a starving stray, now the Zoomie Master! Bruce has discovered the joy of a full belly and the thrill of zooming around the yard like he's training for the Olympics. If you need a personal trainer with four paws and endless energy, Bruce is your guy!

💖 Rosie — Found as a stray, but you'd never know it. This sweet little lady has the manners of royalty—unless you’re a treat, then all bets are off. Rosie will happily curl up beside you for a snuggle session or politely request belly rubs with her irresistible puppy-dog eyes.

🐾 Charlie: The 40kg Lap Dog You Never Knew You Needed! 🐾

Breed: Mastiff Mix
Age: 6 years
Size: Large (40 kg of pure love)

Looking for a big, loving cuddle buddy? Charlie is your girl! This 6-year-old Mastiff mix is calm but playful, and she LOVES her walks (mainly for sniffing EVERYTHING). When she’s not strolling, she’s looking for belly rubs, cuddles, and all the attention she can get. 🐾

What Charlie Needs:
Charlie’s an only-pet kind of girl. She’s not a fan of small animals (no hamsters, please!) and would do best in a home without other pets. She’s all about her humans, so an active family or individual who can give her plenty of attention and walks is ideal.

Charlie’s Personality:
Sweet & Affectionate: Loves spending time with her people.
Easy-Going: Happy to relax or get some playtime in.

What Charlie Loves:
Walks (She’s a local explorer!)
Cuddles & Belly Rubs (Expect some slobber in return!)
Being the Center of Attention (She knows she’s a star.)

What Charlie Doesn’t Like:
Small animals—Charlie wants to be the only pet.
If you think you’re ready to give Charlie the home she deserves, come meet her at 107 McLaughlin Road, Lindsay, Tuesday to Sunday from 11 AM – 6 PM, or contact us at [email protected] or 705-878-4618.

Charlie’s ready to steal your heart and be your one and only furry friend! 💖

Meet Loki – Ready for His Happily Ever After!

Loki came to us a few months ago, and upon examination, we discovered he had two broken canines. Now that he’s had his much-needed dental, this handsome 2-year-old boy is feeling better than ever and is officially ready for his forever home!

Loki is a quiet, gentle soul who enjoys the company of other laid-back cats and absolutely adores attention. Since getting relief from his dental pain, we’ve seen a whole new side of him—he’s playing, seeking out affection, and showing just how loving he truly is.

Loki’s Ideal Home:
✅ A calm, loving environment
✅ Friendly feline companions (if they’re as chill as he is)
✅ A family ready to spoil him with pets and affection

He’s ready to start fresh with a family who will love him as much as he deserves. If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate companion, Loki is your guy!

📍 Interested in adopting? Reach out and give Loki the home he’s been waiting for! ❤️

Cami needs life-saving surgery—and she needs it now.

When 2-year-old Cami first arrived at the Humane Society of Kawartha Lakes from a local rescue, she had been treated for a medical condition and seemed to be on the road to recovery. But just a day later, the condition returned.

We rushed her to a local animal hospital, where vets tried everything to help her. Surgery was performed alongside her spay procedure, and for a short time, we thought she was finally safe. But within days, the condition returned. More testing revealed a devastating diagnosis—Cami has intussusception, a life-threatening condition where her intestine folds into itself. Without specialized surgery, her future is grim.

Will you help Cami by donating today at https://give-can.keela.co/spring-2025-emergency-campaign?

Cami is fighting to survive, but she can’t do it alone. Right now, she’s being lovingly fostered by a veterinary staff member, spending her days curled up in her foster dad’s lap, unaware of how serious her condition is. She deserves a future filled with love, not pain.

The urgent surgery and critical medical care Cami needs will cost between $6,000 and $8,000—and we must raise these funds immediately. Without this procedure, her future is uncertain.

Please, don’t wait—Cami needs you now. Your generosity today will give Cami a fighting chance—a chance to heal, to trust, and to find happiness.

On behalf of Cami and all the animals who rely on your kindness—thank you for acting now.

With urgency and gratitude,
Emily Harris, RVT
Executive Director
Humane Society of Kawartha Lakes

Please go to https://give-can.keela.co/spring-2025-emergency-campaign to help Cami today!

Murphy is an affectionate, playful, and intelligent Labradoodle looking for his perfect match! This handsome guy loves outdoor adventures, car rides, and exploring new places. Whether he's going for a walk, hanging out in the yard, or curling up beside you, Murphy is happiest when he's with his people. He’s eager to please, quick to learn, and always up for a cuddle session—especially if there’s a good brushing involved!

And speaking of grooming—our professional groomer called Murphy the best Doodle she has ever done! He was incredibly well-behaved, patient, and cooperative, making him an absolute dream for spa days.

A home with another dog-savvy pup could be a great fit, as long as introductions are done properly. Murphy enjoys a calm, balanced household where he can continue to build confidence and feel secure.

Name: Charlie
Breed: Mastiff Mix
Age: 6 years
Gender: Female
Size: Large, 40 kg

About Charlie: Charlies past wasn't easy as she spent most of her time in a crate with little attention. But that never stopped her from being a friendly, affectionate Mastiff mix who loves being around people. At 6 years old, she's calm but still enjoys her daily walks. While she's great with humans, she's not a fan of small animals, so she would do best as the only pet in the home. Her easy-going nature makes her a wonderful companion for someone looking for a loving and loyal dog.

Ideal Home: Charlie would be happiest in a home without other pets, especially small animals. She'd do well with an active family or individual who can give her plenty of attention and daily exercise. A home with space for her to stretch her legs would be ideal.

Training and Skills: Charlie is well-behaved on walks and knows basic commands. She's housebroken and enjoys spending time with her people.

Favourites: Charlie loves walks and spending time with her family. She's happiest when she's getting attention and affection.

Dislikes: Charlie prefers to be the only pet, as she's not fond of small animals.

Adoption Fee:
Dog adoption $495.00- This includes vaccinations, microchipping, and spay. She will also be receiving a dental in the coming weeks.

How to Adopt: If you're interested in adopting, please visit us at 107 McLaughlin Road, Lindsay, Tuesday to Sunday, 11 am-6 pm, contact us by email [email protected] or phone at 705-878-4618. You can also fill out an application by following the link here https://hskl.ca/adopt/dog-application.html

Name: Tilly
Breed: Labrador Retriever Mix
Age: 3 years
Gender: Female
Size: Medium

About Tilly
Tilly is the sweetest little lady you’ll ever meet! She came to us as a stray, extremely underweight, but despite her rough start, she remains a gentle and loving soul. She’s eager to please, loves attention, and is always ready for some belly rubs. Her food motivation makes training a breeze, and she thrives on positive reinforcement.

Ideal Home
Tilly would do best in a home where someone is around a lot—she adores people and enjoys companionship. She is non-reactive to other dogs and seems to get along well with them, though she has a naturally submissive personality, so any dog siblings should be respectful and not overly dominant. Her compatibility with cats is unknown. She enjoys activity but is also happy to settle in for snuggles.

Training and Skills
Extremely food motivated and eager to please, making training enjoyable
Working on leash manners and improving daily
Keeps her kennel clean for the most part

Favourites
Loves treats (especially anything food-related!)
Enjoys affection and quality time with her humans

Dislikes
Nothing notable so far—she’s a happy, easygoing girl!

Adoption Fee
$495, which includes her spay, vaccinations, and microchip. She will also be receiving a dental in the coming weeks.

Additional Notes
Tilly would love a home where she gets plenty of love and attention. A fenced yard would be a bonus, but more than anything, she needs a family who will continue helping her build confidence and give her the care she deserves.

How to Adopt
If you’re interested in adopting Tilly, please visit us at 107 McLaughlin Road, Lindsay, Tuesday to Sunday, 11 AM – 6 PM. You can also contact us by email at [email protected] or by phone at 705-878-4618. Applications are available online.

🐱 Kitten Season Never Took a Break! 🐱

We’d say kitten season is around the corner, but honestly… it never stopped! 😅 We already have momma cats in foster care—some about to give birth, some with newborns, and others who arrived with their babies already a few weeks old.

With so many tiny mouths to feed and little paws to care for, we’re putting out our request for supplies early! We’re in need of:

🍼 KMR (Kitten Milk Replacer)
🍽️ Kitten wet food (any brand)
💞 Snuggle Safes (to keep babies warm)
🐾 Cat toys (because play is serious business!)
🍼 Bottles & ni***es for hand-raising the smallest ones
🛏️ Soft baby blankets for cozy snuggles
⚖ Kitchen scales for weighing the little ones to ensure they are growing

If you can donate, we (and our growing kitten crew) would be so grateful! Donations can be dropped off at the shelter or sent through our wishlist.

Thank you for helping us give these little ones the best start in life! ❤️🐾

We adopt out animals that have been surrendered, abandoned and abused. All of our dogs and cats are spayed/neutered, microchipped and given appropriate vaccinations, before going to their forever homes. We also accept animals that need to be re-homed, due to a variety of reasons.
