Over Animal Shelter Appreciation Week, we received a whopping 321 pet photo submissions to our PAWparazzi Pet Photo Contest, raising a total of $321 for the Ottawa Humane Society!
Here are just a few of our many favourite stories from the contest!
Your Pet’s Name:
Roxy
Pet Parent’s Name:
Courtney
Why do you love your pet?
Roxy has made herself a large part of our family. Adding her own sassy personality while still being the smartest and most well behaved dog. We have loved her since we first laid on eyes on her as an adorable puppy!
Your Pet’s Name:
Ben
Pet Parent’s Name:
Martine McGee
Why do you love your pet?
Ben is truly an amazing cat. We got him to help my son who suffers from anxiety issues. The cat has helped tremendously. He will stay in my son’s arms when my son needs to settle and has been known to start a few games of tag with the children. He is honestly a great family pet and not sure what we would do without him!
Your Pet’s Name:
London
Pet Parent’s Name:
Carolyn Harman
Why do you love your pet?
London is a beautiful spirit. Sweet, considerate, pawsitive and spunky. She’s my best 4-legged friend, my fur-baby, and my companion in life. She comes everywhere with me, loves everyone, and can bring a smile to my face daily.
Your Pet’s Name:
Hooch AKA Hooty Booty Bear
Pet Parent’s Name:

I went through a very difficult time in my life and if it wasn’t for Hooch, I wouldn’t be here today. I love him more than anything in this world.
Your Pet’s Name:
Mallory
Pet Parent’s Name:
Celeste Gagnon
Why do you love your pet?
This is my beautiful Mallory-she is 6 months old. We rescued her from the Ottawa Stray Cat Rescue-she is our little princess. She purrs anytime you pet her and loves to cuddle and explore new things. We are unable to have human children so she is the addition to our home. She has two adopted brothers who love her to pieces.

Zoe, our dog is the most loving, friendly dog and Kiwi is just a happy go lucky ball of feathers.
