That's what I thought as well. But sadly, as I, initially, read over the internet and then the adoption manager confirmed for me, they do euthanize the sick animals.
They will only adopt out animals in good health and those animals will not be euthanized.
Poor Winston was scheduled to be put down the day after I found out about him.
I still don't understand why the woman on the phone initially lied to me about it.
Perhaps, she didn't know either?
Anyway! I will be posting photos of Sir Winston soon!
PS
The SPCAs policies are listed on their site

This is a quote from the site:
""No-kill" shelters are generally privately funded and do not accept all animals brought to them. However, once accepted, animals are never euthanized unless they are incurably sick, disabled or display extreme behavior that makes them unadoptable."
