Mattie and her wonderful kitten family
This beautiful and sweet family works so well as a team! They play and snuggle hard! And then they love to eat! Mattie the Mama has been an awesome, caring, maternal cat to them all, even though we always wondered if she had all 9 kittens or whether there were some kittens from another litter that she took under her paw!
These kittens were born May 27th and came to our foster home for Compassion for Paws in June. The kittens have done an excellent job of growing healthily! Mattie the Mom has very slowly started to trust humans. She might have been stray for a long time, or even semi feral coming into the rescue, but she has cautiously watched to see that her kittens and her are safe, and she is now sitting a little closer to us, and even letting the 2 children of the family give her a little pet!

Presenting Patrick and Bailey!
These lovely boys came from a home with just too many cats. They are sweet and friendly boys who love to snuggle and purr in your ears…They are both about 2 years old and could be placed together, but could also be placed separately if they have a friend who is home quite a lot.

Presenting Flora!
Mama Flora is a very sweet and quiet little kitty!
She’s not really sure how to play yet, but she loves a good pet and isn’t afraid to ask for attention. She kneads the air when you massage her side/belly.
She’s ok with being held for short periods of time, and I’ve been able to clip her front nails.
She can be shy in new places, and will hide under anything She will need patience and understanding when adjusting to a new home. She is very good with other cats and would do best with a gentle feline friend
Flora is AVAILABLE - kittens are adopted

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

Gorgeous Hastings!
This stunningly handsome fellow has been here for quite awhile now - learning to trust and live with human houses rules. Hastings came from outside - matted and grimy, he was looking into peoples windows and sitting in their porches.
After arriving he was taken to be neutered and brushed out.
At first, he would watch cautiously while I brought food...
Then he would come closer when I brought food...
Then he would let me pet him while he was eating...
Hastings still doesn't particularly like being picked up, but he will allow it.
He is not yet a lap cat, but he does like humans and he is great with other cats. His ideal place would be a quiet home with one or two other cats to hang out and play with, and a human or two who would be happy to admire his gorgeous face but not demand he be up on the sofa or carried in arms - at least not yet...

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 $225. 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, please download the application, fill it out and email it back to us.
Or you can use our online form to submit an adoption application.
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.
