My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

***IN FOSTER***

What are cats made of? Sugar and spice and everything nice!

There are no artificial sweeteners in this mix. Sugar is the real deal, and she's dressed in a classic tuxedo look to boot.

We've found that Sugar releases her goodness slowly, like a high-quality hard candy. She knows what she likes, and who she likes. While she's comfortable around people, and enjoys being near them, she's an independent girl and particular about who she calls a friend. Once she picks her best buddy, that person is her favourite for life. When she seeks attention or feels playful, she'll follow her chosen one around. If you're sitting down, she'll drop in front of you and expect pets and head scratches. If you have a nap, she'll check to make sure you're okay and then settle down for a catnap next to you. If you are about to eat, she'll demand attention before you can begin your meal. The foster family calls this a "food-pet tax," which they are happy to pay!

She's very affectionate and gentle with the people she trusts, although it takes her longer to warm up to strangers. Sugar enjoys playing with springs, laser pointers, pencils, and fuzzy balls. She loves to roll around on a rug or a couch or hang out at the top of a cat tree, but you'll often find her snoozing in the warmth of a sun puddle or curling up next to you while you work.

Sugar came to us from Hamilton, but we don't know much about her past. She would do best in a quiet household with an adopter who is patient and willing to build her confidence and trust over time. She takes medication daily to control asthma so potential adopters should be prepared to give her a pill in a pill pocket every day. We can't say at this point if Sugar will accept other cats or dogs, or fare well with small children.

Sugar has softened into a sweet treat! But what she needs now is a loving forever home. Could your home be the perfect ingredient to add to this mix of Sugar, spice, and everything nice? Find out by applying today!
--------------------
The adoption fee for a single cat at EHS is $175. Take home an adult feline friend for your kitty and the adoption fee for the pair is $300! For kittens under six months of age, the adoption fee is $200... Or double your cuteness quotient and adopt two wee furballs for $350! If you mix and match (kitten plus cat), the adoption fee is $300. Each of our cats is spayed/neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccines, snap tested for FIV/FeLV, dewormed, and flea treated prior to adoption. Kittens are not spayed or neutered until 5 months of age, but the cost of spay/neuter will be covered as part of the adoption.
