My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Robin est arrivé au Réseau Secours Animal avec son frère Joker en février 2020. Lors de leurs arrivées, ils étaient tous deux très craintifs, mais son frère a fait du progrès rapidement, alors que ce ne fut pas le cas pour le petit Robin. Quelques mois après son arrivée au refuge, nous avons découvert que Robin faisait une cholangiohépatite. C’est une maladie du foie d’origine inflammatoire. De plus, lors de son échographie abdominale, les vétérinaires ont trouvé qu’il était également atteint de l’IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease), qui est une maladie inflammatoire du côlon et de l’intestin. Il devra manger de la nourriture spécialisée de type hypoallergène pour le restant de ses jours. Comme son IBD est bien contrôlé, il devrait pouvoir vivre sa vie de chat sans médication. Au fil des années, Robin a fait la rencontre de plusieurs chats au refuge, mais ce fut sa rencontre avec le beau Rocky qui a tout changé. Grâce à sa relation avec Rocky, Robin a appris à nous faire confiance et nous pouvons enfin le caresser. Rocky a été adopté entre temps, mais Robin continue de chercher la compagnie des autres chats. Pour cette raison, nous désirons placer Robin dans une famille qui aura un chat sociable à la maison. Cela permettra à Robin de poursuivre sa belle progression. En effet, même si Robin se laisse caresser, il a encore du chemin à faire. Il faut faire preuve de beaucoup de douceur avec lui et de patience. Robin fait de gros efforts pour s’ouvrir à l’humain, et sa santé est stable. Depuis quelques mois, Robin fait partie du programme de parrainage. Nous savons que Robin ne trouvera pas la famille parfaite rapidement, mais nous désirons lui offrir une chance à l'adoption! Robin est un chat adulte donc les frais d'adoption pour lui sont de 290$. Il est stérilisé, vacciné et micropucé. Il a été testé négatif pour le virus de l'immunodéficience féline (VIF) et pour la leucose féline (FeLV). Des assurances santé de 6 semaines viennent avec son adoption. Vous pourrez avoir recours à l'aide de l'équipe des adoptions aussi longtemps que vous en aurez besoin. Vous avez aussi droit à une consultation vidéo gratuite de 30 minutes pendant le premier mois suivant l'adoption avec notre consultante en comportement félin FelineGood (https://www.felinegood.ca).

Robin arrived at the Animal Rescue Network with his brother Joker in February 2020. When they first arrived, they were both very fearful, but his brother made progress quickly, while little Robin did not. A few months after his arrival at the shelter, we discovered that Robin had cholangiohepatitis. This is a liver disease of inflammatory origin. In addition, during his abdominal ultrasound, the vets found that he also had IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease), which is an inflammatory disease of the colon and intestine. He will have to eat a specialized hypoallergenic type of food for the rest of his life. Since his IBD is well controlled, he should be able to live his life as a cat without medication. Over the years, Robin has met many cats at the shelter, but it was his meeting with handsome Rocky that changed everything. Through his relationship with Rocky, Robin has learned to trust us and we can finally pet him. Rocky has been adopted in the meantime, but Robin continues to seek the company of other cats. For this reason, we want to place Robin in a family that will have a sociable cat in the home. This will allow Robin to continue his good progress. Indeed, even if Robin allows himself to be petted, he still has a long way to go. It is necessary to show a lot of gentleness with him and of patience. Robin is making great efforts to open up to humans, and his health is stable. For the past few months, Robin has been part of the sponsorship program. We know that Robin will not find the perfect family quickly, but we want to give him a chance at adoption! Robin is an adult cat so the adoption fees for him are $290. He is sterilized, vaccinated and microchipped. He tested negative for the feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) and for the feline leukaemia virus (FeLV). Health insurances are offered for the first 6 weeks following adoption. You will also have access to the help of the adoption team as long as you need it. You will also have access to a free 30 minutes video consultation within the first month following adoption with our cat behaviour consultant FelineGood (https://www.felinegood.ca).

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

All new adoption homes are carefully screened to determine if they are suitable. There is an adoption fee that includes the sterilization, initial vaccination of every animal, testing for FIV and FeLV of all cats at the shelter, and a 21 days trial period. A contract is always signed between the ARN and the adopter for their protection. A follow-up by an ARN adoption coordinator is often done either by telephone or by visit, and we also offer help/cousel for the life of the cat.

Go meet their pets

We hold weekly adoption clinics at pet supply stores throughout the Montreal area, and the South Shore to find permanent homes for our cats and dogs.
