Toonie is small but mighty! She may be the smallest pup we've rescued in 2026 but she also might be the feistiest!

You can help us care for Toonie and the more than 100 marine mammals we rescue, rehabilitate and release every year by symbolically adopting her today with a small donation to the rescue centre.

Weaning Toonie is still being fed a zoological milk formula, but as her teeth are beginning to erupt, her diet is being supplemented with fish. Soon, she will enter fish school where she will learn how to eat fish on her own.
Patient Updates
Toonie is growing more and more each day!
My family and I are so glad lil toonie made it! When we found her on our dock we knew something was off with how skinny she looked and how no adult seal checked in on her the entire day. By the time MMR came she was already so weak, so we’re glad we made the call in time. Thank you for the swift rescue MMR and we hope lil toonie will continue to thrive under your care!
So happy that toonie has been doing well each day. She looks much more healthy and chunky!
