💙🐾 Foster Shoutout! 🐾💙

This summer has been busy — well over 200 moms, babies, and orphans have come through our doors at HSKL. Some are already adopted, some are still waiting, but every single one got the love and care they needed thanks to our amazing fosters.
From bottle feeding at 2am to snuggles and playtime, you’ve given these little ones the best start in life. We truly couldn’t do this without you.

✨ Thank you, foster families, for being heroes to our tiniest and most vulnerable animals! ✨

🐶 Want to join the team? We’re currently looking for dog fosters for large breeds. If you’ve got the space, love, and time to give, please apply here: https://hskl.ca/how-to-help/foster.html

🚨 TOY EMERGENCY ALERT 🚨

Our toy box is looking… well… kinda tragic.
The cats are staging protests because they’ve batted the same toy mouse into the wall 200 times. The dogs are chewing on air and pretending it’s fun. And the bunnies? Let’s just say they’re giving us serious side-eye because their stackable cups are missing. 🐾🐰

Here’s what we need before the mutiny begins:
🐱 Cat toys of every kind imaginable (springs, balls, wand toys, you name it!)
🐶 Big, durable, “nice try, you can’t chew through me” dog toys
🐇 Wooden toys & stackable cups for our bunny squad

If you want to be the hero of the toy box, check out our Amazon Wish List 👉
https://www.amazon.ca/hz/wishlist/ls/1U0KWAHZDLRO1?ref_=wl_share

Send a toy, save our sanity. 😅💙
