"The City of Hamilton Animal Services will be co-hosting with the HBSPCA clinics at two recreation centres in the lower city on Saturday, October 1, 2011. Our goal is to provide our Lifetime Cat Registration and microchip up to 500 cats (250 cats at each clinic) for the cost of $12.50 (a value of over $100). This is for Greater Hamilton residents only (Ancaster, Dundas, Flamborough, Glanbrook, Hamilton & Stoney Creek). All cats must be in a carrier or a box.

TheSpec: "Animal caregiver helps those who cannot help themselves"

Article in The Spectator by Laura Lennie featuring Deanna Maerz of the Animal Angel Rescue Foundation (AARF).

Excerpt: "Deanna Maerz sees desperation in dogs’ eyes every time she walks through Hamilton Animal Control.

That’s why the Stoney Creek resident established the Animal Angel Rescue Foundation (AARF) and works with animal control to rescue dogs that would otherwise be euthanized."


"AARF will hold a Walk4Rescue walkathon on Sunday, Oct. 2 at 11 a.m. at the Working Dog Saloon in Scarborough.

All funds raised will go toward the rescue’s vet.

For more information on AARF or the walkathon, contact Deanna Maerz at deannaaarfrescue@yahoo.ca."
