Pets Alive!

Meet Ringo, Adopted May 2006

Every year, the Owen Sound Animal Shelter holds a calendar contest to raise funds for the needy animals. There’s a $10 entry fee, and it’s $1 to vote for your favorite furry friends. The top 13 will be given spots in the calendar.

This year, I’ve entered my little girl, Ringo! We had another kitty in mind when we went to the shelter back in 2006, but Ringo jumped on Justin and said “This one’s mine! I’m going home with him!” It was love at first… climb. At the time, we also thought Ringo was a little boy (hence the name). You can imagine our surprise when we got a phone call from the vet during “his” neutering appointment! She’s grown up to be a fiercely independent, yet loyal and loving friend.

Please visit OSAS’s website and vote for your favorite calendar pictures! If you’re blown away by the happy pet pictures that you see, consider choosing your next pet from the shelter. They make wonderful friends. I would know, I live with three of them!
