Chance – PENDING
October 1, 2024 | 
Author Chance, Male, Walker Hound, 3 years old, 55lbs
Chance is a mystery dog.
Click to Enlarge
He was found running on a highway with his pads raw from running on a hard surface.
Nobody ever claimed him and Home Again was happy to take Chance in and send him to a great foster.
Here is some of what she has told us about Chance.
She says that there are so many good things to say about Chance.
Chance loves children of all ages. Chance is great with cats
Click to Enlarge
Chance is crate trained and sleeps all night without making a sound. Chance is good with other dogs and the foster’s own dog and Chance have become best friends.
Chance loves to go for walks and is amazing on leash. He does not pull at all. She has not let him run free.
Chance is house trained.
What more could we say about this beautiful boy? Everything suggests to us that he has been a house pet and not a working Hound.

Now we are looking for a forever home for Chance which will continue the good start he has had with his foster. If you think that your home will be the right one for Chance we will be happy to hear from you.
The adoption fee for Chance is $550. He has been neutered, his vaccinations are up to date and he has a micro chip.
For more information about Chance or to inquire about adopting him please email Home Again at info@homeagainbancroft.ca

Rex was picked up as a stray. He is a friendly boy who loves to be around people and to get snuggled. Rex likes sunny spots to snooze and relax. Loves to play with toys and loves treats.
Rex needs a home where he is the only cat as he can get aggressive with other cats. We do not know how he is around dogs. Rex has lived a hard life on the street, he deserves a safe, loving forever home.

He is on the CATS FOR SENIORS program, so his adoption fee is waived for the right home.
Jock – PENDING
Jock, Male, Black Lab, 2 years old, 55lbs

Wow, looks and personality! Jock is a super loving boy with all humans even kids, other dogs and the fosters resident cats. He is great off lead and doesn’t run off ( he loves his humans too much). Jock also adapts quickly to new surroundings and people. Does he play fetch…. Oh yeah that is his favorite game.
Click to Enlarge
But he does have some separation anxiety when his humans are out of site, although he will play outside with the resident pup for a time before he comes looking for his humans again. With time and patience this can get better.
He is a very strong boy, in his past life he must have been very well exercised.
Jock is house trained.

Jock’s ideal home will be with stay at home humans, some space to run and stretch his legs and a companion dog and or older kids

Ava
Ava, Female, Anatolian Shepherd X, 5 months old, 48 lbs.
Ava is a country girl. She started her life on a farm where her mom and dad are guardians of goats and fowl.
Click to Enlarge
But she also enjoys the benefits of being a companion pup in her foster home. Ava has the makings to be a stellar companion and/or working dog.
Ava is calm, respectful and sometimes a little shy with adults but gravitates instantly to children. It doesn’t take her long to find her comfort zone though.
Click to Enlarge
Ava is also respectful and submissive when meeting other dogs. She is naturally polite; responding appropriately to other dogs’ cues. A big brother to show her the ropes would be a perfect match for Ava.
When Ava connects with her people and environment her confidence blossoms. She is fun-loving, playful and affectionate. She loves being outside, going for walks, swimming and helping her people do the chores.

Ava will be a great farm and family dog for country folk looking for a loyal and loving family member and/or farm hand.
Ava has been vet checked, microchipped, and her vaccinations are up to date. Home Again offers an adoption rebate upon receipt of proof of spay when Ava is old enough. The adoption fee for Ava is 650.00.

Meme
Meme, female, black short hair, born in 2022.

Meme is a sweetheart, very adorable, loving, affectionate once she gets to trust you.
Currently in foster care with many cats, she would do better being the only cat in the house.
CATS FOR SENIORS
Home Again expands its services to include one for seniors who want the companionship of a cat but want to ensure the cat will have a home if the cat outlives the senior person.
The senior pays no adoption fee because he/she would take a Home Again cat that would otherwise not be adopted because of the cat’s age or unsocial nature.
The senior would pay for the cat’s food, litter and veterinary care, for life. If the senior passes away before the cat, Home Again brings the cat back into the program available for the next senior.
This program would allow Home Again to save so many cats that need to be re-homed because their owner died or went into a nursing home and the cat is used to a quiet home without any other pets. Adult cats are difficult to re-home because they like what they are accustomed to. If a cat lives without other cats, they strongly object to re-homing into a house with cats.
All Home Again fosters have other cats, so soloist cats cannot be fostered by Home Again. This program is a winner for many needy cats, seniors, and the people who must help seniors settle their affairs.
CONTACT US if you need a cat to love or you need to re-home a senior cat into a like-home.

Bake Sale March 23, 2024
Volunteers raised over $1900 selling baked goods and gently used pet accessories at the Bancroft Village Playhouse.
All money goes to the animals because there are no salaries paid and no shelter to pay for.
Pets are fostered in volunteers’ homes until they are adopted.
Wagging tails are gratitude enough for volunteers. The huge support of the Bancroft community is icing on the cake.
Thank you Bancroft!
Karina Vega and Christine Walker manned the pet accessories booth.
Some available-for-adoption Great Pyrenees puppies delighted shoppers with free kisses.

Happy Tales: Otis
Click to Enlarge
Home Again displayed kittens at the Maynooth Christmas 2023 Market where Otis was adopted by Barb and Clayton, who report this about him:
“Otis has found a wonderful place in our home and having him is such a joy. He is so playful and rambunctious and has such an adventurous personality. He is always getting into things and following us or our other cats around. He really enjoys watching the fish and hamsters through the glass as well as
Click to Enlarge
getting into any spot he can such as the cupboard, the kitchen sink, the bathroom sink, the empty mop bucket, the closet, inside Christmas presents while we are trying to wrap them, in bags or boxes, in shoes, he has fallen into the toilet several times no matter how many times we put the toilet seat down, in the trash can, even in the fridge every time it is opened. So we always keep an eye out, ha-ha.
Click to Enlarge
“He is a small ball of mischief for sure! He loves playing with the other cats and even the dogs. Our elderly cat Tommy is not too interested in play, so they just cuddle. He loves toys so our house is covered in cat toys – feather ones, string ones, cat balls and bells. He loves treats and raw meats like venison and fish from the lake. He likes frosting too and is always trying to sneak some when we aren’t looking (he’s not very successful).
He likes to sit in windows and watch the birds.
“Overall Otis has been such a wonderful addition to our little family and he has brought so much joy and happiness to our lives. He sleeps in our bed and naps in our laps. He is growing into such a beautiful cat and we enjoy seeing his little personality develop in our new year!”
Who is more entertaining – kittens or puppies?
Happy Tales: Kimmy
Kimmy was adopted by first-time cat owners Ally and Dylan, who, on day two after adoption, say:
“Thank you so much for making this adoption such a smooth process! Kimmy has settled in wonderfully. Cozy, eating and drinking, using her litter box, and sleeping/playing! She sleeps soundly after we brush that long hair.”
Kimmy’s birth mother walked away from her. Lucky she was near the home of fosters extraordinaire Bev and Art. 
Lucky again that they had a lactating mother cat inside who took in Kimmy with her own two kittens and fed and raised the three of them in that foster home. Bev named her “Lucky”, now known as Kimmy.
Maynooth Market 2023
Chris Hass invited Home Again to her Maynooth Market Saturday December 9, 2023.
She understands that Home Again adoption fees alone do not cover veterinary expenses and food for the many dogs and cats in foster care, so fundraising is necessary to continue this important work. Joanne Freeman, baker extraordinaire, made pies for purchase. Donated pet-related merchandise was purchased by Christmas shoppers.
Volunteers Rosemary Dixon and Clasina Weese manned the booth in the morning. Bev Guthrie, Pat Drummond and Lynn Taylor did the afternoon shift.
Kittens were available for adoption (one was adopted)..
