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!

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!

Meet Bentley! This sweet 6-year-old golden was surrendered to our rescue partner @goldenrescue and needed a new start. Thanks to our volunteer pilot Hugues L., Bentley just completed an incredible 5-hour flight from Quebec to New Brunswick, where his loving foster family was waiting with open arms!
Bentley's journey across provinces shows how far love can travel when we work together to save lives.
📍 Calling Eastern Canada pilots! We'd love to expand our reach across Quebec and the Atlantic provinces. If you're a licensed pilot in these regions, we need you to help us save more lives like Bentley's. Sign up to be a volunteer pilot with us through the link in bio.
