My story

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

DOB: March 8, 2025

Hi, I'm Butternut Squash! I am the chaotic one of my siblings, I am always investigating new spaces and seeing what kind of interesting things I can find. I love to chase toys and will sometimes even bring them back to you, but usually I just bat them under furniture and wait for someone to return them to me. Isn't having humans fun?! I promise to keep you on your toes, but I'll reward you by being the softest lap warmer you've ever had (after I've gotten all my crazy orange kitten energy out!)

I started my life in a garage on the outskirts of Kitchener before being rescued. During that time I was possibly exposed to panleukopenia but I have successfully completed the full quarantine period with no issues. As a precaution though, any resident cats in the adoptive home must be fully up to date on their FVRCP vaccinations.

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!
