A Love Story with Nine Lives: Corbin’s Purr-fect Reunion

Forget Romeo and Juliet, this February, we’re celebrating a love story with whiskers, fur, and a huge dollop of heartwarming serendipity! Get ready to meet Corbin, the feline Casanova whose journey home will leave you feline good.

Two years ago, Corbin, a black and white cat with a heartthrob’s gaze, went on an unexpected adventure, disappearing from his Simcoe, Ontario home, much to the dismay of his heartbroken family. The family spared no effort attempting to find him, especially young Hudson Ryder, who shared a special connection with Corbin, but to no avail. Eventually the family had to relocate to Yarmouth, Nova Scotia. Little did they know, Corbin was about to begin a journey no one could have seen coming!

Sandi Fettes with Corbin

Enter Blaire Sylvester, a Simcoe resident with a nose for feline news. She spotted Corbin, snapped a picture, and shared it online. Talk about a purr-fectly timed social media post! Sandi Fettes, an animal advocate with Purrfect Companions Cat Rescue and Adoption, saw the post and recognized Corbin from a missing pet alert. She immediately contacted Corbin’s owner, Justice Ryder, and the wheels were set in motion for a meow-gical reunion.
But there was one tiny problem: distance. Simcoe to Yarmouth? Luckily, Canadian Wings of Rescue swooped in to make a family reunion in Nova Scotia a reality!

Pilot Greg Campbell loading Corbin

Volunteer pilots Greg and Clay each took a leg of this multi-day journey. After a quick visit to a vet for a check-up, neutering, and vaccinations, Corbin was ready for take-off with Greg. After a hand-off to Clay, who also acted as a temporary foster, Corbin finally landed in Yarmouth, where a joyous reunion with the Ryder family took place.
A year and half after this beautiful reunion, Canadian Wings of Rescue got a heartwarming update from Corbin’s family. They shared that he’s a big cuddle enthusiast, a lap-warming champion, and a playful disruptor of family game nights.
Corbin’s story is a reminder that compassion for animals knows no bounds. It’s a testament to the kindness of strangers, the dedication of animal rescue organizations, volunteers and the unwavering bond between humans and their furry companions. A huge thank you to everyone who helped make Corbin’s journey home a reality!

We’re grateful to every one of our volunteer pilots, past and present, who make lifesaving animal transports possible.

Animals like Zara, a rescued basset hound, got a second chance thanks to pilots like @dr.campbell.vet.dentist, who donate their time and skills to help animals in need.

While our pilots volunteer their aircraft and time, transports may still come with costs, due to things like unexpected weather delays or landing fees. Your donations help keep dogs, cats, owls, falcons, and even a wolf (really!) safely in the air with Canadian Wings of Rescue.

If you’d like to support the animals, and the volunteers who go the distance for them, click the link in our bio to donate! ✈️

When an injured bald eagle needed urgent help, volunteers stepped up, and fast. 

From Thunder Bay to Southern Ontario, this rescue transport was a powerful display of compassion, coordination, and care. It took a late-night landing, an overnight foster and a team of volunteers united by one mission: care.
