Meet & Greet at PHS: Abigail
Abigail is a shy girl, looking for an understanding family that will bring her out of her shell. She is a big love bug who just wants to be a lap dog (despite her size)! She’d love to be the centre of attention (preferably no other dogs) so she can be spoiled like she deserves. She is hoping to find a home in time for the holidays, so she can experience that love and magic herself!
If this beautiful girl sounds like your new furry friend, visit www.peterboroughhumanesociety.ca to learn more.

FIV in Cats 🐱
Turbo is one of our amazing cats available for adoption, who happens to be FIV positive. Jessica T, Animal Enrichment & Behaviour Coordinator at PHS breaks down some of the misconceptions around FIV.
Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV) is an autoimmune disorder, it reduces the ability of the cat's immune system to respond to other infections.
❌Cats with FIV have shorter life spans.
Cats with FIV can live just as long as non-infected cats as long as they are well-cared for. It’s important to keep FIV cats indoors to avoid viruses, bacteria or other diseases found outside.
❌FIV positive cats can't live with other cats.
The primary mode of transmission for FIV is through bite wounds from an infected cat. Households where all cats are fixed, remain indoors, and live peacefully pose little risk of FIV transmission.
❌FIV can be transmitted to humans.
No. FIV is specific to cats. Only cats can get FIV from other infected cats.
✔FIV positive cats are deserving of loving homes!
Just like any other cat, FIV positive cats make great companions and would love a furever home to call their own.
If you're interested in Turbo or any of our other furry friends, please visit our website peterboroughhumanesociety.ca or in shelter at 1999 Technology Drive, Peterborough.

Meet & Greet at PHS: Sully
Sullivan is a high energy, fun loving, and adventurous dog. If you're looking for an adventure buddy, look no further. Sullivan is ideally looking for a home that is willing to take introductions really slowly and come for multiple meet and greets, as he can take some time to warm up to new people. Once he is comfortable with someone, you really get to see his playful, goofy, and intelligent personality come through!
