NOTE: St. Margaret's Bay Animal Hospital often receives abandoned animals. Most are healthy, though some animals abandoned with us have medical problems. We attempt to re-home all the animals abandoned at the hospital but we are selective to ensure they get the best homes possible. All animals that are re-homed are vaccinated, and nt’d. Cats are also Feline Leukemia tested. There is an adoption fee & a short waiting period prior to adoption. To adopt one of our animals, please contact Jennifer for an appointment. Consider: We are a working hospital & it may not be possible to accommodate you without an appointment. At the moment this clinic is FULL of rescued animals in need of good homes. They cannot accept any more & would LOVE to get some adopted. Please call them

Central Paws Humane Society NFLD

KITTEN: “Max”: Fluffy little grey Tabby kitten (6wks), FIV/FL tested & dewormed. Ready for a new home in 2 weeks. Applications being accepted.
DOGS: “Molly”: Female (will be spayed soon!) VERY “Special Blend” (8-10yrs), wispy honey-gold coat, lovely semi-floppy ears & a kindness that shines through. This wonderful girl has had a hard life until now as she has spent most of it “living” outdoors. And if THAT wasn’t sad enough, she has just had a litter of puppies & is nursing 3 babies. That’s right…at her age. Think about that for a minute. So, you can see how much she deserves some kindness & respect.
Molly’s puppies: One male (Piper) is black & brown, second male (Rosco) is white with brown ears & spot on back near tail & on base of tail, one female (Lily) is white with very light buff spots/blotches. Puppies turned 3 weeks old on October 26th, ready for placement in 5 weeks.
PLEASE NOTE: ALL the cats in this Shelter are adopted out as INDOOR ONLY cats. They live longer & healthier lives that way!
Central Paws is looking for people interested in Foster Care and who can help with transporting animals to help keep the cost down.
DONATIONS are always gratefully accepted and desperately needed
