SNAP-A Burlesque Review


Hey...did you know that a whole bunch of animal groups are getting together to put on a really neat Burleque show? It's true...on May 7th..at the Ecole Sainte-Anne Theater in Fredericton. There are 2 shows...one in the afternoon and one at night so everyone can attend! And tickets are only $22.50 if you buy them beforehand.

And here's the best part...all of the proceeds are going to help a whole bunch of special animals. Animals right here at the Oromocto and Area SPCA (like me)...animals at the Fredericton SPCA who are homeless too. The Kindness Club...they teach kids how to be kind and how to treat animals properly so that they never end up homeless or abused. Ca-R-Ma..they're a group who helps feral cats by making sure they can't have more babies and making sure that they are healthy and warm and have full tummies. Chickadee Cat Club who is a group of people who like cats ALOT...and the Ferret Lovers Society of Atlantic Canada..they help ferrets who can't stay in their homes anymore by finding them new loving families.

So....as you can see...alot of deserving animals are going to be helped just by you going out and enjoying yourself by seeing a GREAT show!

So drop into the shelter and get your ticket!!! It's for a good cause!

Lyme Disease IS in New Brunswick.


This week we recieved a dog from the NBSPCA who had been found in pretty bad shape a few weeks ago. After a trip to the local veterinarian and some blood work, it was discovered that Huey has Lyme disease.

Lyme disease is caused by ticks who carry it and it can be debilitating with no treatment.

Huey is on medication and is doing VERY well! His message is clear...PLEASE talk to your vet about flea and tick medication! Do NOT buy over the counter products.

Spring is just around the corner...please help protect your companion!
