(KINGSTON, ONTARIO) Ms Hessell’s Grade 5/6 class at Bayridge Public School in Kingston was happy to go out and help the Gananoque and District Humane Society once again on June 26, 2013 with their second annual classroom fundraiser.

“Once again we’ve raised money for the Gananoque and District Humane Society,” said Hessell. “John and Diane (Seymour) have come in once again to accept and to talk to our class about what it means. We sold freezies, we made and sold friendship bracelets, fancy bracelets, bookmarks. We had a raffle for Jolly Ranchers, which was a big hit, and this was all over one lunch hour. All the kids pulled together and made posters – 26 students – and we raised $208.90.” – to read more>

Cages were crawling with kittens after 22 of them were abandoned at the Gananoque and District Humane Society on April 24.

This little boy has no idea what he’s in for, but you can bet he misses his mother. He is just one of the 22 kittens abandoned at the Gananoque and District Humane Society on April 24.

This tiny little girl, small enough to rest comfortably in the palm of a hand, was one of the 22 kittens abandoned at the Gananoque and District Humane Society on April 24. It is not yet known how many are males, how many females, or how many will survive this tragic experience.

(GANANOQUE, ON) – Sometime in the early morning of April 24, someone decided to drop off two unexpected packages at the Gananoque and District Humane Society (GDHS). Inside the rather small and sealed boxes were 22 kittens, all still young enough to benefit highly from their mothers’ care. – to read more>
