My story

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

Meet Arebus (male, black) & Trixie (female, calico)! Arebus & Trixie are about 3.5 years old. They were surrendered to our rescue due to allergies. Once they settle in, you will find Trixie to be more outgoing & social – she enjoys pets and snuggles but also has that Calico independent streak. Her partner in crime, Arebus, is shier and will take a little time to warm up but once he does, here is what his foster mother has to say ‘Arebus is ridiculously affectionate. He is my lap cat! Truly one of the most lovable cats I’ve met. He loves touch and stares into my soul when we’re cuddling. He just needs time!!!’

Both are gentle and playful and would be fine with another gentle cat. They are fine with the male cat in their foster home. They had a very difficult time with the hyper active puppy in their original home and consequently we do not recommend that they be in a home with dogs.

Arebus’ original owners decided to declaw him in the front earlier this year because he was scratching the furniture. We do not support declawing for any reason and truly wish they had surrendered him to us before declawing him. It is shameful that any vet in Ontario would declaw a cat because he is scratching furniture. Arebus also had a urinary issue in 2022 that we believe was the result of poor diet & stress. We are firm believers that all cats should get wet food every day. A tablespoon of wet food twice a day and lots of fresh water goes a long way in helping to prevent urinary crystals caused by a dry kibble diet alone. They are both on a urinary diet now and Arebus is doing great.

Arebus & Trixie have been neutered/spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. If you have room in your heart & your home for this gentle bonded pair, contact us here or email heartstohomesfelines@gmail.com. The adoption fee is $400 for the pair.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The first thing we require is completion of our Application & Agreement. It is one page, asks for a reference and requires (among other things) that you agree not to de-claw the cat, not to let the cat roam freely outdoors, and to return the cat if the adoption does not work out for any reason.

We deliver the cat upon approval of the application.

All cats are spayed/neutered/vaccinated/microchipped and adult cats are tested for FIV/FELV.
