Nova Scotia SPCA - Yarmouth Shelter

08/10/2026

Nova Scotia SPCA is thrilled to be part of Unity Sweepstakes. Every week is a chance to win big while making a difference in our community; it's a win-win.

Here's how it works:

1️⃣Buy your ticket into the weekly draw - tickets start at $10
2️⃣Choose your 5-switch vault combination
3️⃣ One Grand Prize winner is drawn — and takes home a guaranteed prize of $5,000 cash
4️⃣The winners combination is matched switch-by-switch against the vault code
5️⃣The more switches that sequentially match, the more cash the winner unlocks!

💥1 match = 10% of the vault
💥2 matches = 20%
💥3 matches = 30%
💥4 matches = 50%
💥5 matches = The entire vault is yours!

Anything unclaimed carries over to next week's draw, which means the longer it goes — the bigger the prize waiting on the other side!

Today we’re celebrating our fabulous felines for International Cat Day! 😻 Their 3 a.m. zoomies, cat naps in the sun, and meows make our days so much better.

We’d love to see the cat(s) in your life, so share a photo or memory of them in the comments. We can’t wait to see the cuteness! 💙

And if you’re looking for fun ways to celebrate today, we have some ideas in mind.

🥰 You can cuddle a cat at our shelter!

🥰 If you’re ready, adopt a kitty looking for their purrfect people - www.novascotiaspca.ca/adoptions!

🥰 Or make a donation at www.novascotiaspca.ca/donate!

We receive no government funding for our shelter operations, so every little bit helps to transform lives.

P.S.: This big-eyed cat found his loving home! 🥹

A childhood DIY cat made out of cardboard boxes became reality decades later. 😻 Geeta always dreamed of having a cat, and when she saw Johnny’s profile on the adoption page, she knew it was meant to be. That same day, she walked into the Kings Shelter alone, but left as a family of two. Years later, Geeta and Johnny continue to create memories even from the smallest moments together. 💙
