Poop and Scoop Debacle

Even if you don't own a pet, pet poop effects you every day and especially in the early spring when all the snow melts. Municipalities and SPCA's typically spend many, many hours through out the year educating pet owners on proper poop etiquette. It appears though, that two couples from Ontario missed out on that education and now a judge has told them "they are acting like children." Maybe some further education is in order for this psychiatrist and oil executive.

Thank You for Caring for Cats!

 

"We are only one month into the 2011 Year of the Cat (YOC) campaign and already we have made significant progress!" says Judi Cannon, Collaboration Manager Care for Cats. "Reports about the Year of the Cat have appeared in dozens of newspapers, websites and other media outlets in the past four weeks. As a ‘behind-the-scenes’ member of the Care for Cats Committee, I extend a heart-felt THANK YOU to everyone involved with this important project for making this progress possible."

In the months leading up to the official YOC launch on January 5th, Canada’s companion animal industry rallied together in an amazing spirit of collaboration and commitment. Although we are still in the early stages of the program, all indicators are that we are moving in the right direction. Our combined efforts are creating a heightened awareness about the plight of cats in our communities and the industry is combining resources to insure a successful project. Well done!
