The Brandon Humane Society has a full roster of cats and dogs looking for a new home.

There are currently approximately 30 cats and 30 dogs up for adoption, including a brand-new litter of five kittens.

“That’s pretty much what’s usual for us,” said adoption counsellor and volunteer co-ordinator Brian Simard.

“Once we empty a kennel for an adoption, it’s not empty for long. We’re usually rescuing from the pound.”

The humane society doesn’t currently have any empty kennels, which Simard said isn’t out of the ordinary.

“We never have empty kennels for long,” he said.

In British Columbia, some animal shelters have seen skyrocketing demand for adoption. In response, the Parkland Humane Society will start shipping some cats to British Columbia, according to Dauphin radio station 730 CKDM.

While cats sometimes take years to get adopted at the Parkland Humane Society, they can be adopted almost instantly in British Columbia.
