- Bring your printed Hamilton Animal Services Licence Certificate receipt with the Ren’s Voucher to any Ren’s Pets location to redeem your $20
- You must sign up for Ren’s Rewards (Free to join!) to redeem your reward
Cat owners must keep their cat indoors or on their own property. Hamilton residents are encouraged to buy a cat registration tag from the City of Hamilton to help their lost or strayed cat return to their homes.
