Peanut
* Peanut found her forever home with Sarah McLachlan (!!!) *
Wee Peanut was found alone on the street and brought to Hamilton Animal Services. At about four weeks old, she was too young to be away from her mama, and no one is sure how she became separated from her.
We were happy to rescue Peanut from HAS and we put her in the very capable hands of Dr. Fleming from Guelph Animal Hospital. Peanut had an off and on upper respiratory virus that she was on medication for, and a few weeks later, she was finally healthy enough to start the search for her forever home.
We posted the fantastic photos of Peanut, shot by Trevor Weeks, and we were immediately contacted by someone who was very interested in adopting her. That someone was the amazing singer/songwriter, Sarah McLachlan! Sarah was so taken by the photos and the cute video of Peanut playing with Dr. Fleming’s dog, that she knew she had to adopt this little one. We were thrilled! Sarah had plans to be in Toronto a short time later for some shows, so arrangements were made to meet Sarah at the airport with Peanut for her flight home. Peanut was a champ! She played in the waiting area for the two hours before her flight, then she slept through the entire plane ride to Vancouver. Now she’s being loved and spoiled by Sarah and her daughters, and she’s making friends with their other pets. Peanut hit the forever home jackpot!
Big thanks to everyone who helped Peanut along on this amazing journey. Kim from Hamilton Animal Services, Dr. Fleming and all the staff/foster homes at Guelph Animal Hospital, Trevor Weeks, and to Sarah for giving Peanut the loving forever home she so deserved.
Yay Peanut!
