Join us for our Shelter Garage Sale! We’ve been lucky to receive so many donations that we can share gently used pet items and more with you.

This sale helps us:
- Rotate newer items to the animals in our care.
- Find new homes for items we get in large amounts, like fish, reptile, and pocket pet supplies.
- Make room for critical supplies, such as food and health care items.

Every dollar raised goes toward important animal care expenses, so you’ll be helping pets in need with every purchase. We’ll also donate any unsold items to northern rescues and community foster groups.

Date: Saturday, January 11, 2025
Time: 10 a.m. – 3 p.m.
Location: Community Room – Saskatoon SPCA (2250 Hanselman Ave)
