«Depuis février 2013, nous avons réussi à stériliser quelque 340 chats errants, a indi- qué la fondatrice de l’organisme, Pat Bra- celin. Une journée comme celle-là avec le père Noël, cela nous permet de sensibiliser les gens à la situation et aussi de parler de l’importance d’adopter les animaux de re- fuge. Chaque animal a droit à sa dignité et à de l’amour.» En plus de pouvoir prendre des photographies de leurs animaux de compagnie, les visiteurs pouvaient égale- ment faire des trouvailles pour le temps des Fêtes et participer à des tirages.
