This holiday season, find a gift for the horse lover on your list that gives back in nuzzles and neighs. The Ontario SPCA’s Paws & Give™ 2016 Holiday Symbolic Giving Catalogue is filled with one-of-a-kind gifts that help change the lives of animals in need, including horses and ponies.
Horse lovers can “adopt” their very own horse by bringing home Velvet, one of the animals featured in the Rocky & Friends Collection. Velvet was pregnant when she was surrendered to the Ontario SPCA. This Connemara Pony spent a few months in foster care before she gave birth to her black filly, Chantilly Lace, in her new forever home. Velvet now spends her days as a member of an equine assisted therapy team. When you give this plush toy as a gift, you will be helping to rescue other horses like Velvet.
Other must-have holiday items include the Ontario SPCA’s 2017 Second Chances calendar and animal-themed holiday cards, which include Velvet, making them perfect to send to your friends at the barn.
