My story

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

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

Lois est arrivée au Réseau Secours Animal en septembre 2023 après avoir été trouvée errante à Laval avec ses deux sœurs. Elle a mis du temps à s'habituer à la présence humaine, mais le jeu a été le déclic qui l'a fait sortir de sa coquille. Lois est en effet extrêmement motivée par le jeu, bien plus que par la nourriture. Elle adore les caresses, surtout à la base de la queue et les gratouilles sur les joues. Très observatrice, elle aime être près des humains pour observer ce qu'ils font. Lorsqu'elle se sent en confiance, elle n'hésite pas à venir réclamer des caresses. Elle est nerveuse en présence d'étrangers, mais apprécie ses humains d'accueil en qui elle a confiance. Malgré les progrès qu'elle a fait, elle a toujours cette petite nervosité qu'il nous faut respecter. Elle n'aime pas les grands bruits et elle aime qu'on fasse preuve de douceur avec elle. Elle est de plus en plus communicative et vient chercher des caresses plusieurs fois dans une journée. Elle adore être brossée, et avec un peu de chance, il est possible de lui couper une griffe ou deux. Cependant, elle n'aime pas être manipulée. Lois ne serait pas un bon match pour un environnement avec de jeunes enfants. Elle apprécie toutefois beaucoup la compagnie d'autres chats. Lois est un chat adulte donc les frais d'adoption pour elle sont de 290$. Elle est stérilisée, vaccinée et micropucée. Elle n'est pas testé pour le virus de l'immunodéficience féline (VIF) ni pour la leucose féline (FeLV), mais sa sœur Lana est négative pour ces deux virus. 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 dans le premier mois suivant l'adoption avec notre consultante en comportement félin FelineGood ( https://www.felinegood.ca ).

Lois arrived at the Animal Rescue Network in September 2023 after being found as a stray in Laval with her two sisters. It took her a while to get used to the human presence, but playtime was the trigger that brought her out of her shell. Lois is extremely motivated by play, much more so than by food. She loves to be stroked, especially at the base of her tail and scratched on the cheeks. Very observant, she likes to be close to humans to watch what they're doing. When she feels confident, she doesn't hesitate to come and ask to be petted. She's nervous around strangers, but appreciates her trusted foster humans. Despite the progress she's made, she's still a little nervous, which we need to respect. She dislikes loud noises and likes to be treated gently. She's becoming more and more communicative, and comes in for petting several times a day. She loves to be brushed, and with a bit of luck, it's possible to trim a claw or two. However, she doesn't like to be handled. Lois would not be a good match for an environment with young children. She does, however, enjoy the company of other cats. Lois is an adult cat so the adoption fees for her are $290. She is sterilized, vaccinated and microchipped. She is not tested for the feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) or for the feline leukaemia virus (FeLV) but her sister Lana is negative for both viruses. 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.
