Wesley came to us as a stray - nervous, unsure, and trying his best to make sense of his new surroundings. But it didn’t take long for his sweet personality to shine through. With his charming underbite, gentle heart, and love for cuddly stuffies, Wesley quickly captured all of our hearts!

When he was ready to find his forever home, Kristin didn’t hesitate. The moment she saw him, she just knew that Wesley was meant to be part of her family. Now, this special boy is starting a new chapter surrounded by love, comfort, and the security he’s always deserved.

Here’s to happy beginnings and the beautiful bond ahead. Congratulations, Wesley and family, your happily ever after has begun.

Sweet Pea is searching for her forever home! Sweet Pea came to us as a stray so we don't know a lot about her, but we do know that she enjoys the simple things in life: chirping softly, fluttering her wings, and watching the world go by from her perch. She enjoys a peaceful space filled with enrichment like foraging toys, natural branches, and toys to peck at and explore. With a little time a patience, she will truly blossom!

If you're someone who appreciates the quiet beauty of nature and the joy of watching a timid creature gain confidence, Sweet Pea might be the perfect bud to add to your flock! Adopt her at omhs.ca/smallanimals

Sega made herself right at home, getting all the cuddles, playtime, and cozy spots she deserves in this 😺

"Sega has been such a great addition to our home! As soon as we brought her home she stretched right out on the bed and made herself comfortable. She has been so great and has adjusted perfectly. She is the queen of our house and she definitely knows it. She is so cuddly and affectionate and we love her so much. Every morning she wakes us up with some cuddles and will purr non stop. Her favourite spots to relax are on the back of the couch, the window ledge where she can watch over all of the people in the park or stretched across the bed cuddled up on our clothes. She loves playing with balls, her tunnel, and of course the laser pointer where she can chase the light. "

Hear ye, hear ye! A noble tale of triumph and destiny unfolds! 🎉

Young King arrived at our kingdom as a humble stray, alongside his loyal littermates. In his earliest days, he faced a fearsome foe: Parvo and with the heart of a warrior, he conquered it with courage and grace. From there, King was whisked away to a foster court where he learned the ways of friendship and gentleness, preparing for the day he would ascend to his true throne: a forever home.

That day came when the McCarty family entered the royal halls of the shelter and instantly knew, this pup was their chosen one. With wagging tail and a regal heart, King now rides off into a life filled with love, laughter, and endless playtime.

A triumphant bow to all who stood by King’s side - rescuers, healers, fosters, and friends. Your dedication has secured a fairy tale ending for this brave little monarch. Long may he reign in happiness!

Field Call Friday! 🦨

This week, our Animal Protection Officers sprang into action to help a skunk in need! A concerned resident spotted the little one wandering with a cup stuck on its head — completely disoriented and bumping into trees and fences. When officers arrived, they found the skunk clearly in distress and unable to see. Acting quickly and with care, they gently removed the cup. Once free, the skunk paused for just a moment… then dashed off safely back to the wild! Huge thanks to the vigilant community member who called it in and to our amazing team for giving this skunk a second chance.

Say hello to our newest bunny addition! Sid is a bold and charming bunny who previously lived as an outdoor rabbit but has been thriving in his transition to full-time indoor. He is a confidence and curious guy who loves to explore, sneak into all the little nooks and crannies, and keep tabs on everything going on.

Sid is also absolutely crazy about food and will come running the moment he hears the rustle of a treat bag or sees you approaching with a snack. He is still working on accidentally nibbling fingers due to his excitement, so a home that understands how to set gentle boundaries and feed with care would be best for Sid.

Sid is very smart, adaptable, and energetic. He would love a home with space to roam, plenty of enrichment to keep him entertained, and of course, plenty of snacks! If this confidence companion sounds perfect for you, adopt Sid at omhs.ca/smallanimals 🐇

Sun's Out, Buns Out! Sid's adoption fee is WAIVED! For $0, you can adopt Sid for the rest of the month and still get his neuter and microchip covered.

After spending 257 days in the care of the Oakville & Milton Humane Society (OMHS), a gentle and affectionate pit bull-type dog named Bella is finally getting her second chance more than 3,000 kilometres away.

On June 25, Bella flew to Alberta, where she will be placed for adoption through the Calgary Humane Society.

Bella was brought to OMHS in October 2024 after being found as a stray in Oakville. Since then, she has formed strong bonds with staff who describe her as playful, affectionate, and eager to please.

Unfortunately, because of Ontario’s breed-specific legislation, OMHS could not place Bella for adoption within the province. Under the Dog Owners’ Liability Act (DOLA), pit bull-type dogs are banned in Ontario, even if they show no signs of aggression.

Coordinating Bella’s transfer to Calgary was a complex process. Ontario’s breed-specific legislation meant her options for adoption were extremely limited, and finding a shelter outside the province that could take her was no small feat. It took months to find a partner with space to take her, prepare for airline requirements, help Bella adjust to a travel crate, and finalize her transfer to the Calgary Humane Society. These challenges are part of why she remained in our care for so long.

Lilo & Nala's adoption fee is 50% off to help spread the word! Learn more about them or adopt them at omhs.ca/cats 😺😸
