My story

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

DOB: October 5, 2018

Bell is a quirky, lovable cat with a big heart and some endearing habits that will make you smile every day. If you sit down and he’s in the mood, he’ll come trotting over, plop himself down right beside you, and demand pets like it’s his full-time job. He might even flop over and proudly display his toe beans for admiration.

But Bell is also a sensitive little soul. He startles easily and will dash off if you try to pet him when he’s not the one asking for it. If he sees you approaching with something in your hands, he’s likely to scamper away and watch from a safe distance. He’s still learning to trust and is looking for someone who will give him the patience, space, and gentle encouragement he needs to feel secure.

Bell isn’t very vocal, but he’ll let out a soft meow when he’s seeking affection or responding to a friendly voice. He eats and drinks well, uses his litter box perfectly, and has never shown any aggression toward humans.

Because of his timid nature, Bell will do best in a calm, quiet home as the only pet. He truly thrives when he doesn’t have to compete for attention or space and can build a trusting bond at his own pace.

If you’re someone who can appreciate the slow blooming of a cautious heart—and who’s ready to be gently tackled for love—Bell could be the perfect companion. With time and tenderness, he’ll reward you with devotion and the sweetest little moments of connection.

Additional adoption info

Adoption fee is $225 per adult cat, and $300 for kittens (under 8 months old).

This ensures that the cats that come into our care receive the attention they need, are spayed or neutered, and receive a rabies vaccination at the appropriate age. For City of Toronto residents, the adoption fee includes a mandatory City of Toronto cat license that is valid for one year. As you can imagine, these fees only begin to cover our costs; donations and ongoing fundraising efforts carry us the rest of the way!

Note:
-Senior cats (8 years or older) have an adoption fee of the adopter's choice, vs. our standard adult adoption fee of $225.
-Our adoption fee for an adult bonded pair (8 months or older) is $175 per cat vs. $225 per cat. Thanks for giving two loving friends a home together!
