How often does your organization take in cats that are super scared?
Some cats are scared for a few days, other cats for a much longer period of time. While they're often not a large percentage of our cat population, unless we have solid plans to help them these cats can end up staying with us for a while. Learn from Dr. Jacklyn Ellis about how she and her team support these cats at Toronto Humane Society.
Speaker: Dr. Jacklyn Ellis, Director of Behavior at Toronto Humane Society
