ORA-Organization for the Rescue of Animals

DAISY URGENTLY NEEDS A HOME! Daisy was rescued by ORA 12 years ago, she was just one to two year old at the time. She was fostered by ORA for approximately two years, before we found the perfect adoptive home for her. She was loved and cared with much attention for ten years, but recently her adoptive mom passed away and her dad cannot anylonger care for her, due to serious health reasons. With heavy heart, he has asked us to find a new home for her. It is urgent because... Daisy is now alone in the house and that is a short term arrangement. Please consider adopting Daisy. This is what Daisy says about herself: "My name is Daisy, I’m a 14ish year young tortoiseshell cat who loves to cuddle up by the fireplace or on your lap! I really don't like other animals, but I like people and having my ears and belly rubbed, being brushed, and playing with a laser pointer (though in fairly short bursts as I do also like to laze around and nap quite a lot). I am at my best with an older person or couple looking to add a feline companion to their family. I am low maintenance, easygoing (as long as I am the only animal in the house), and I am healthy though maybe slightly on the plump side as I LOVE mealtime! Please share this post if you cannot adopt Daisy yourself For more information and to adopt call Claudia at 416 726 5762

SOMETHING VERY POSITIVE COMING OUT FROM THE CORONA VIRUS INFECTION!

IT IS ARGO’S BIRTHDAY: TODAY HE IS 21 YEAR OLD! He was born on December 5th 1998, in another century and in another millennium! Argo’s birthday wish: Please donate to ORA, at https://www.canadahelps.org/en/dn/10929. These wonderful people I so dearly love have saved all my family and given us and so many hundreds of cats a wonderful life... How Argo ended with ORA? Argo’s Mom , Suzie, was rescued from a nearby barn, just few days before the barn was demolished. Suzie was very pregnant and a week later she delivered four gorgeous kittens. Two of them were adopted out but returned under ORA’s care 14 years later when their adopters decided that they no longer wanted them. All Argo’s siblings died in their late teens and so did Mom Suzie. Argo , however has been beating them all. Argo is in good health, however he has lost a bit of weight. He is very affectionate, he is a purring machine and would like to spend all day in someone’s lap. He loves to give big hugs! Here Argo is presented with his birthday cake: one of several organic chicken liver puddings prepared by our Cathy Dreksler. Argo is visibly enjoying it and there are a few more to share with all ORA’s cats here for a Big Birthday Celebration! ORA is a grass-root organization, strictly no-kill and entirely run by volunteers. We have no paid staff and 100% of all donated money goes to pay for the care of cats and dogs rescued by ORA. ORA rescues abandoned, abused and neglected cats and dogs throughout the GTA Donate on line through Canadahelps.org at https://www.canadahelps.org/en/dn/10929 Website: ora-animalsrescue.org Tel: 416 726 5762

A warm and wonderful Thanksgiving - preferably turkey-free! - and long weekend to you from Max the dog (she is shown here recovering very well post-surgery thanks to the help from all of you who donated!), Claudia, Corinne, and the volunteers and many animals at ORA. If you haven't had a chance to donate to ORA or volunteer with us this year, please call us at 416-726-5762 or 416-726-8895 as we love to hear from you - and we can always, always use the help!

Cancer has started another fight with one of our own at ORA. Should money hold us from saving a dog's life? Max's amputation surgery takes place Monday and she needs your help to make it happen. Please give us a call with your credit card at 416-726-5762 or 416-726-8895, donate generously at http://canadahelps.org/en/dn/10929, or send a cheque to: ORA-Organization for the Rescue of Animals P.O. Box 22608 300 Coxwell Ave... Toronto ON M4L 3W7 Encouraging thoughts are always welcomed at [email protected]. Every volunteer at ORA loves Max the rescue dog dearly for her sweet nature, playfulness, and that sparkle of joy in her eyes. We hope to be able to tell Max that many other people out there care for her and for her life. #animalrescue #dog #life #lovestory #win
