“Pet keeping is not static: the kinds of pets we keep, how we keep them and how we form relationships with them have changed over time.”
– Jane Hamlett and Julie-Marie Strange, Pet Revolution

Documented through photographs and objects from OMAH’s permanent collection, discover the bond between Orillians and their pets in the 19th and early 20th century. Learn about the early days of pet keeping, from antiquity to the modern era, and how our furry friends have shaped our lives over the centuries.
