Presenting Nikki's litter - Four little girls - as sweet as can be!
Any of these sisters would make a great pair of new friends for you...
Nikka and Jasper are identical except for a tiny white spot on Jasper’s belly. Nikka loves to run at warp speed and likes to be first. First to eat, first out the door and first to try a new toy. She is brave and curious and playful.
Jasper is the mellow one of this tribe. She is happy chasing around her siblings and then taking a break and watching. They both love to race to the top of everything and chase each other through the cat tunnels.
Gracie is sweet and lovable and full of energy. She is very social and wants to be with her siblings at all times. She enjoys running in and out of her floppy cat house and and loves to wrestle.
Cinder is happy and playful. She enjoys leaping from the top of the cat post and playing with her stuffed mini mouses. She is loves her naps on a soft surface and really likes running and hiding in her cat tunnels.
These girls must be adopted in pairs

Presenting - Clara!
This lovely girl came into another rescue from a northern rescue.
Clara is super friendly and very snuggly and loves to play and have lots of attention. She loves kids and would do great in a busy home as nothing phases her.
Another young cat to play with is a must and children would be a plus.

Charming Duncan is a lovely boy!
He came to a local shelter as a stray but he is certainly a house/lap cat and not an outdoor boy.
Duncan is approx. 4 years old, super sweet, and likes to be chatty with his human friends.
He is UTD with vaccines/dewormed and is neutered but unfortunately, his outdoor travels left him FIV positive.
What does that mean?
Not much really - he can still live with and be buddies with nonFIV+ cats, as the virus is not spread through sharing a food or water bowl, grooming or other casual interaction. He does need to be fed good quality food and have a relatively stress free indoor life - something we want for all of our cats honestly!

Presenting - Shine!
This beautiful lady came to us a few weeks ago and she is a lovely girl!
About a year old, she is sweet with other cats, and tolerates respectful dogs.
Shine is a sweet, gentle cat who is looking for a new place to call home - maybe yours?
Presenting Calum!
It took months of intensive strategy to gain the trust of this fellow
When his foster mom noticed him outside last fall, he was wearing a collar and had a complete tail.
We later found out that he had escaped his carrier while enroute to the vet for a checkup and had been lost. Sometime later his tail was cut? Squished? Caught in something?
Anyway, infection set in and chunks of tail started falling off, frozen to the ground. Was it gangrene? Frostbite?
His foster mom was determined to get him in and get him help. For many weeks she blasted a space heater into her basement bathroom, and opened the window (under her deck) - to lure him to come in.
She heated up bowl after bowl of food - and finally the day came when he was far enough inside that we could shut the door.
He had a visit to the vet where the remaining tail needed to be amputated back to healthy flesh, and hes doing so much better now.
Calum is a very shy fellow. He does not like to be petted but really likes other cats.
He is about 2 years young, and would love to have a cat friend to play with, or a quiet home with people that will give him space. If that is you, please apply online at compassionforpaws.ca
To contribute to his medical bills, donations gratefully accepted by etransfer to hello@compassionforpaws.ca or Paypal.me/compassionforpaws.ca

Presenting Amy and Feathers!
Amy is a small, people-loving, playful kitty. She is black with white patches on her throat and tummy. She loves to be held, played with, petted and brushed. She was rescued during a huge snowstorm with her best friend and possibly sister Feathers, who seems to either have to adopted Amy or been her sister.
Feathers is a sweet, gentle, motherly, shy, medium-length haired tortoiseshell kitty who is loved by, and clearly loves people and the kitties around her. She takes gentle care of whomever is near her or seeks her out, especially, but not only, Amy, She loves to be brushed with a soft brush and petted, and she loves to either play or watch others play, deferring to them.
Both were found outdoors trying at 15 weeks young to walk.through snow 3 feet deep against a bitter wind. Both kitties are now a young and healthy 7 years old and they love to watch the outside from the safety of their cat tree bed, and lie in the sun.
Amy loves to play with balls and string toys, and she happily plays tag with Feathers.
Kind and gently affectionate, this beautiful pair would bring special joy to a calm household.

Presenting Dewey and Chewey!
The handsome gray and white boy is Dewey - and his friend Chewey is a total sweetie!
They had a rough start as outdoor cats - but when their home was being torn down to build condos, they managed to find an indoor place to settle.
Chewey was outdoors, badly injured and scared, and it took 3 months of dedicated trapping every night, before he was brought in. As you can see his ear is folded a bit. He was feral but now enjoys the attention of being petted. Dewey was tame from the beginning - he was probably lost or abandonned but was indoors at one time.
These 2 friends are inseparable and fully bonded either each other.
They must be adopted as a pair.
No dogs or young children please

Introducing Rosa!
Poor Rosa has had a hard-knock life so far, but is hoping for something wonderful to come her way - she really deserves it!
Rosa came to us as a single, pregnant mom along with the one surviving (4 month old) kitten from her last litter.
She raised her kids and they have all been adopted - now she needs and deserves a home of her own.
But here is the challenge - Rosa has been let down by humans so far and still doesnt trust.
She prefers to hide from new things, but has NEVER shown the slightest hint of agression.
She will occasionally allow you to pet her gently, but does not seek out attention yet.
Rosa is fine with other cats but does not seek their attention.
The perfect home for this fluffy and elegant cat is one with another gentle and social kitty around for companionship. Or a quiet person who doesnt mind if she keeps to herself.
Rosa may never be a lap cat - but she will be a beautiful companion and you will have given a sweet kitty a new lease on a happy life.

Adopting a Cat
The matchmaking is the most important part! We work hard to make sure that cat finds the best possible home for them We carefully match cats to homes for which they are suitable and compatible.
And we work with applicants to assess and match their lifestyle with the right cat.
After an initial interview, applicants will be asked to provide references.
Because of Covid, adopters must agree to a virtual home check prior to adoption.
An adoption contract will be sent by email, and it must be signed and dated, scanned and returned.
An adoption fee is required. Our adoption fee is currently $250. each for cats that have been spayed/neutered.
We do reserve the right to deny an adoption applicant.
All of the cats in our rescue are spayed/neutered if they are old enough, may be current on vaccinations and microchipped depending on their specific situation and health.
Other veterinary care as needed and appropriate will have been done.
For many reasons we only adopt to residents of Ontario.
To apply to adopt a cat, use our online form to submit an adoption application. or
download the application, fill it out and email it back to us.
Shelter animals come from diverse situations and backgrounds.
Often they have lost their home through no fault of their own but due to changes in their previous family's life.
They are not broken or damaged, but just need a home and love.
