While we are still grieving the loss of our dedicated Executive Director, Bonnie Deekon, the Board of Directors for the Cambridge and District Humane Society would like to commend each of the CDHS staff for the admirable job they have done in keeping the shelter running smoothly in her absence.  They have ensured that every animal is well taken care of and on its way to finding its "forever home".   While we realize that Bonnie can never be replaced, the Board is actively taking steps to recruit a new Executive Director for the shelter.   In the interim, any questions regarding Kennel Operations should be directed to Krista Morgan at  519-623-7722 ext.225 cdhs@cambridgehumanesociety.org, and any questions regarding Animal Services should be directed to Megan Gashgarian, at 519.623.6323 ext.230 asc@cambridgehumanesociety.org.  The Board will oversee all CDHS and Animal Services operations, and any questions for the Board should be directed to our President, Lesley Love at exec.director@spca.cambridgeweb.net.
