Pets Niagara is a volunteer-run, non-profit organization dedicated to reducing the number of homeless and abandoned animals in the Niagara Region through education, foster, adoption, sanctuary and charitable support of pets and pet owners. We aspire to be a unified voice for abandoned, abused and neglected animals in our region and in particular for the City of St. Catharines and for the greater s
uburban and rural areas surrounding us. Together, through a system of volunteers, foster homes, educators, animal lovers and exceptionally generous people, we aim to eliminate the unnecessary suffering of domestic animals by keeping them out of the shelter system. Pets Niagara rescues cats, dogs, small animals and even farm animals as space and availability of foster homes allows. Rescuing senior animals, those with costly medical issues and the so-called "hard to adopt" animals, with an eye to providing those precious souls with a permanent sanctuary, is our special focus. Through our success stories, we know that every life is worth saving. For the pets that are suitable for adoption we work diligently and tirelessly toward finding a life-long loving home for these deserving creatures. We are working hard towards our lofty long-term goals and vision - building a dedicated physical sanctuary in the Niagara Region where we can provide safe harbour for all pets in our region that are in need. There, we will be able to continue with our rescue-foster-adopt mission as well as provide permanent residence for senior pets, hospice cases, FIV, FeLV and feral cats, and farm animals. This will also be a place where the Pets Niagara community will be able to gather, grow and celebrate. Pets Niagara relies solely on the kindness and generosity of the general public through donations and memberships, sponsors and corporate partners. We are not funded in any way by the federal or provincial governments or agencies. To enable us to bring our mission and vision to fruition we must raise funds through diverse avenues, including fund-raising activities, sales of pet-related products and awareness campaigns. Rest assured that 100% of all proceeds received by Pets Niagara through its' activities is spent solely on the needs of the animals protected by our care umbrella. Pets Niagara will engage in a number of fund-raising activities as well as launch a line of toys, bedding and protective gear that can be purchased for your favourite feline or canine. All proceeds of sales made through our pet collection are used solely to fund the charitable activities of Pets Niagara. All proceeds realized from our fund-raising activities, memberships and sponsorships are used solely to fund the charitable activities of Pets Niagara. You can help Pets Niagara build a thriving community. Any donation, big or small, goes a long way to helping an animal in need. We welcome anyone who is willing to help, learn, engage and celebrate the lives of all the wonderful pets who share our world with us.
We are happy to announce that Pets Niagara has taken in a beautiful little furgirl that needs specialized medical support to keep her digestive tract working properly. Tofu arrived yesterday. She is very unsure of what is happening in her world right now. But, we've already made strides in becoming friends. Here's a welcome for our newest little resident.

We are happy to announce that Trixie and Kim have been officially reunited. Although we are sad saying goodbye to one of our little charges, we are preparing for another little female furkid to join us, tomorrow. Trixie was such a good little furgirl during her time with us and we will miss her cute little ways.
I hope everyone in Canada is enjoying the Canada Day Holiday. The one downside to the celebrations are the gunpowder-fueled fireworks. At the last holiday, some idiot was setting off fireworks on the road right outside of our sanctuary. The result: I had three precious cats with weeklong diarrhea, frightened by the extreme noise. They all had to be treated with metronidazole prescribed by their vet.

I love a cat's purr. Nothing more soothing after a tough day.
Your cat’s purring produces a sound every 30-40 milliseconds and lasts 10-15 milliseconds. They can produce about 250 sounds per second and can change in volume, length, and frequency according to their state of mind! Learn more about purring at https://bit.ly/3tHzgHW.
And our third anniversary celebration is for the 5 years that Barney has been with us. Barney is Frankie's 'brother from another mother'. Barney is such a snuggle bug and with all that thick, fluffy fur it's like curling up in a cozy blanket.
The second of our anniversary celebrations today! Frankie has now been here 5 years. She has quite the engaging personality.
Anniversary Celebrations galore, today! This is the first of three! Lily has now been here 7 years and just keeps getting more special every year.

Please keep your dogs on a leash while outdoors, during this weekend - even in your own fenced backyard. Many dogs are so traumatized by the noise of fireworks that they will dig their way out or find a hole just big enough for them to squeeze through. If they escape, you may not be fast enough to catch them. There are still dogs missing who escaped during fireworks several years ago.
And for our horse loving friends, fans and followers, they have been known to break through fences or jump them to escape the loud noise of fireworks. Horses are often severely and fatally injured during escape times. Please, bring your horses into the stable and be sure the stable doors are shut. It's only for a few nights and far better to know that your beloved horses are safe.
📢 ☀️ As the long weekend & fireworks displays approach, it’s important to protect our pups from unnecessary distress and potential danger. Fireworks can be an exciting spectacle for us, but for many dogs, they can be a source of fear and anxiety.
Here are some essential tips to keep in mind:
1️⃣ 🏡 Keep your dog indoors: Create a safe and secure environment for your dog during fireworks displays. Close all windows and doors, and provide a comforting environment for them to retreat to.
2️⃣ 🌳 Leash up: If you need to take your dog outside, ensure they are on a leash at all times. Consider using a Martingale collar & Safety strap for added security. Even during the daytime, unexpected firework noises can startle your dog, potentially causing them to run away.
3️⃣ Identification: Ensure your dog is wearing a collar with identification tag that is easy to read, and microchip registration information is up to date.
By being proactive, we can prevent dogs from becoming lost due to fear. Have a great long weekend! 🐶☀️
The fireworks started last night. Thankfully, they were far enough away that the noise didn't have too much of an impact on the sanctuary pets. But, I know from past years that tonight and tomorrow night, especially, are going to be very noisy! Everyone, please keep your pets safe.
As we approach the long weekend, please be considerate of our canine companions who may be TERRIFIED of fireworks 💥
Leave your pets at HOME, and be sure all gates are secured!
(along with the can food, include a Kong/puzzle feeder, to keep the pets occupied) 🐶
Bunny! Sorry I'm a little late getting this posted. You're such a sweet little soul and I make sure you're spoiled everyday.
Happy Mother's Day to all the amazing pet moms everywhere! We also celebrate your hard work in making the world a better place for pets of all shapes and sizes and species.

On April 28, 2024, Trixie celebrated her 6-month anniversary here at Pets Niagara Sanctuary. She is such a delightful little girl and so cute as she runs with her tail held high to her feeding area when she hears my footsteps coming to bring her meals to her. Sorry we're a little late in getting this notice posted. I'll have to schedule better around income tax time.
I've received confirmation on Mika's breed. Mika is a Savannah and weighs about 12 pounds.
Mika escaped his home in Toronto, Ontario near Ardwold Gate on March 5, 2024. There is a sizable reward for the safe return of Mika. Please share this post, especially if you have friends in Toronto. This precious soul needs to be reunited with his owner as soon as possible.

Front door was open and he got out 11.30am yesterday. He has microchip. Please help me to find him 🙏🏽
Happy 9-month Anniversary ! What can I say about you? You are such a sweetheart. You're now into giving nose rubs, kisses on my cheek and head bumps. I've never met a cat with more love to give than you.

Cats will make it clear when they want an embrace or to be petted. Until then it's best not to try to force a cuddle. For tips on how to show your cat affection visit https://bit.ly/2YCHtC6.
Much to our dismay, not all cats want to snuggle all the time. Let your cat approach you. Cats will often nuzzle or rub up against you, making it clear they want an embrace or to be petted. For tips on how to show your cat affection visit https://bit.ly/2YCHtC6.
Happy Valentine's Day, everyone!
Happy 3-month Anniversary ! I can see that you're feeling more relaxed and 'at home', now. Happy Anniversary sweet girl!

Mr. Mittens visiting his new doctor today.
#vipnews #mrmittens is now in residence! He has arrived into his furever loving home. We are so glad that we have been able to provide a wonderful home for such a deserving little soul. A giant thank you to @Catherine Milner for her dedication to animal rescue and her determination to find a home for this little guy. Also, I send out a huge amount of gratitude to his three fosters Heidi, Kristin, and Shealin, who kept him safe while the build was happening, as well as #HolyCrossSecondarySchool and Mike Sirotnik and his entourage who completed the build. An immense amount of gratitude also goes out to every single person who donated funds and supplies, helped with leg work, fundraised, shared his posts, and made other contributions!!
The final video captures the last row being installed. But, wait, they ran out of shingles - 6 shingles short. Oh well, to be completed at a later date - April 23.
The second video shows progress on the shingling. and the final video captures the last row being installed.
We're overdue on catching everyone up on the progress with Mr. Mitten's new home. On April 10th, Mike and Jeff were here to get the shingling done on the roof. Here are a few videos, the first showing the initial row being installed on the west side of the roof. The second video shows progress and the final video captures the last row being installed.
#MrMittens New Home Build. A short video of the fellows finishing up the roof - far right lower corner of the roof, the sheathing being installed. As you can see, the yard was turned into a mud bath thanks to all of the wet weather we've had lately and an army of volunteers working diligently most of Saturday.
#FirstWall on Mr. Mittens new home.
#UPDATE! Fantastic news! Kitty has already found a new home for Christmas. We wish you all the best and a long, happy and healthy life in your new home, little one. So happy for you. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Here's Kitty in a short video, at play. Did you see our earlier post about Kitty? This sweet senior - about 11 or 12 years old - is in need of a somewhat urgent new home for Christmas. She has recently been parted from her human guardian who was placed, unexpectedly, in long-term care. Kitty was rescued by her guardian about a year ago under very similar circumstances and here she is, again, in need of a permanent and loving new home. If you think you would be a perfect pet parent for Kitty please contact us at [email protected].
#UPDATE. All three kittens have now been adopted and have made their way to their new homes. We at Pets Niagara wish each of the kittens and their new human guardians a long, happy and healthy life together. I know that each of these precious little souls will bring a lifetime of smiles and love with them to their new homes. Video of the kittens for adoption, shown in the two posters, below.
