My story

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

Roxanne est une adorable chatte très attachante et affectueuse. Lorsque l’on a créé un lien de confiance et d’affection avec elle, elle vient demander de l’attention et des câlins quelques fois par jour. Elle adore monter sur le comptoir pour se mettre à la hauteur de son humain et ensuite se frotter le visage sur le sien. Elle aime également venir d’elle-même se blottir dans nos bras, comme si elle était un bébé, pour recevoir de l’affection. Lorsqu’on s’étend sur le ventre, elle aime venir se coucher sur notre dos. Si on se couche sur le dos ou de côté, elle vient se coucher entre nos jambes.

Rox (pour les intimes) a une grande motivation pour la nourriture. Bien que cet aspect soit un grand avantage pour son éducation (il est facile de la récompenser avec de la nourriture), cela vous demandera également une certaine patience. En effet, Rox désire goûter (lire dévorer) toute nourriture qui se trouve dans son champs de vision, champs olfactif et/ou champs auditif (ouverture de la porte du frigo ou d’une porte d’armoire de cuisine). Extrêmement persévérante (l’une de ses meilleures qualités), elle continue d’essayer même si on la remet par terre plusieurs fois. Patience, douceur et persévérance sont la clé de la réussite pour trouver un terrain d’entente.

Tous les aspects de sa personnalité font d’elle une compagne parfaite.

Bonus : grande communicatrice, elle apprécie s’exprimer et faire la discussion.
-----------------------------------------------

Roxanne is an adorable, affectionate cat. Once you`ve created a bond of trust and affection with her, she`ll come begging for attention and cuddles a few times a day. She loves to climb up on the counter to get to her human`s level and then rub her face on his. She also loves to come and snuggle in our arms on her own, as if she were a baby, to receive affection. When we lie on our stomachs, she likes to lie on our backs. If we lie on our backs or sideways, she`ll come and lie between our legs.

Rox (for her friends) is very food-motivated. While this is a great advantage for her upbringing (it`s easy to reward her with food), it also requires a certain amount of patience on your part. Indeed, Rox is eager to taste (devour) any food that comes within her field of vision, olfactory field and/or auditory field (opening the fridge door or a kitchen cupboard door). Extremely perseverant (one of her best qualities), she keeps trying even when put down several times. Patience, g

More about this shelter

Founded in Montreal in 1869, the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (now known simply as the Montreal SPCA) was the first animal-welfare organization in Canada. It is not known under whose influence the society was formed, but its history acknowledges assistance from animal-welfare societies in France, England and the United States. In its early years, the SPCA concentrated primarily on improving the treatment of work horses, which were used all across the island of Montreal. The SPCA later began working on additional issues, such as humane dog control, cock-fighting and the killing of wild birds. The SPCA has come a long way since its beginnings: today, it is the largest animal-protection organization in Quebec, speaking on behalf of animals wherever there is ignorance, cruelty, exploitation or neglect.
