The black and white Ruffed Lemur from Madagascar, along with the many other exotic animals that were on display at Delmanor Northtown brought the seniors much joy. They took welcoming everyday pets such as cats and dogs one step further by bringing in exotic and exciting animals to their homes!

'Hands on Exotics" is an animal shelter that is based out of Toronto that specializes in the care of exotic animals. The background of the animals varies, some are surrendered because the owners could no longer care for them, while others are from less fortunate situations where they were seized from inadequate or abusive situations.
In order to fund the care of these animals, 'Hands on Exotics' offers a wide range of outreach programs such as the wonderful show that was presented at Delmanor Northtown. It was a truly positive and feel-good experience for all and a memory that the seniors will not forget.
Offering new and unique opportunities to residents is something that Delmanor Northtown strives to do everyday. The seniors can now add experiences such as wearing a snake around their shoulders, holding a parrot, and even getting up close and personal with a de-skunked skunk to the list of the many experiences that they have been privileged to experience while residing at Delmanor Northttown.
