Response to the Coronavirus Outbreak

FRIENDS OF FERALS wishes to announce that our monthly 3-day fundraiser at EVANGELINE MALL in Digby has been CANCELLED for March for the health and safety of our supporters. This decision was not made lightly, as this event is our largest annual source of revenue supporting our rescue operations. Three presumptive cases of Coronavirus in Nova Scotia were just announced in the news this afternoon and one of these cases is reportedly in Kings County.

If you wish to purchase catnip toys or other hand-made items ordinarily available at the mall, please email donations@friendsofferals.ca with what you’d like to purchase. All fundraiser items are available for pick-up from our volunteer Rosemary Wheelock who resides in the Town of Digby. A sampling of what is available may be viewed on our "Store" tab on this website.

Donations may be made by eTransfer or PayPal to donations@friendsofferals.ca

The long-term impact of this epidemic is unknown but we hope to resume public fundraising activities in April or whenever it is reasonable to do so.

Warm regards,
Society for the Friends of Ferals
