My story

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

DOB: April 30, 2019

Ivy is a very sweet and loving girl with a gentle presence and a soft meow that she uses to let you know when she’s ready for cuddles. She loves being close to her people and often seeks out laps for pets and affection. When she feels truly comfortable, Ivy will settle in for long stretches of biscuit‑making and purring, showing just how content she is. She thrives when she can be the queen of her castle, soaking up love and attention in a calm, quiet environment.

Ivy has her own special ways of asking for connection. She’ll give a gentle head bump when it’s time for pets, and sometimes she’ll reach out with her paw to encourage more affection. She enjoys working a room, making sure everyone has had a chance to share in her love, and she will happily cuddle for as long as possible.

Because Ivy prefers to be the center of attention, she needs a home where she is the only cat. She does not do well with other animals and will flourish in a space that is hers alone. Ivy also needs a patient adopter who can help her through the transition of settling into a new home. At first, she may appear defensive, but this behavior comes from anxiety and uncertainty in unfamiliar surroundings. With time, patience, and love, Ivy relaxes and her true affectionate nature shines through.

Ivy is a beautiful, loving companion who will reward her forever family with devotion, cuddles, and endless warmth once she feels secure. She is ready to share her heart with someone who will give her the safe, peaceful home she deserves.

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!
