**** NS SPCA Release
Breaking Mewsl! Starting Tuesday, October 19th we will be reopening our shelter doors!
Due to the limited space at our shelter, we have a new vaccination policy for staff, volunteers and visitors to protect our community and reduce the spread of COVID-19. Masks are still mandatory. 🐾
So, what does that mean for you? ✨
