My story

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

Hello world, my name is Verdana!

I’m a brown tabby boy full of curiosity, sweetness, and a serious love for treats — even though I can be a little nervous at first. New people and big noises make me pause and observe from a safe spot, but once I feel comfortable, my playful side comes out in full force with pounces, zoomies, and lots of silly kitten antics. I adore gentle snuggles, soft pets, and curling up somewhere warm, especially if it’s next to someone I trust. Shake a treat bag and you’ll see my shy demeanor melt away as I trot over with bright eyes and a hopeful meow. With a bit of patience and kindness, I become a loyal, affectionate shadow who loves following my favorite human around. If you’re looking for a treat-loving, snuggle-seeking boy who just needs a little reassurance to show his big heart, I might be the perfect match for you.

MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES...
CHILDREN: I could be good with calm/respectful children
OTHER CATS: I could be a good match with a friendly cat after a slow and proper introduction.
DOGS: I could be a good match with a cat-savvy dog after a proper introduction.

SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME...
FIRST TIME CAT OWNERS: Yes
ACTIVITY LEVEL: Medium-high

Additional adoption info

If you’re interested in adopting a pet, view the pets on our website. Please ensure you read their adorable description and all their important details! Once you choose a pet that you feel would be a good match for your home, click “Adopt me” from within that animal’s profile. Adoptions at GHS are not processed on a “first come first served” basis. We may accept multiple applications for an animal in an effort to find the most suitable home.

We now facilitate cat adoptions in-person on Saturdays! Join us in shelter on Saturdays from 11am to 2pm to meet your perfect match.

More about this shelter

For 125 years, the Guelph Humane Society has been dedicated to protecting and caring for the many animals with whom we share our community and our lives, and to fostering the important bonds with animals that enrich us as individuals, families and communities. Founded in 1893, the Guelph Humane Society provides care and shelter for more than 3,000 homeless, stray, injured, and abused animals each year throughout Guelph and Wellington County.

Our programs are delivered by an enthusiastic team of staff with many years of experience in animal care and welfare. In addition to paid staff, we are lucky to have over 400 active volunteers who provide thousands of hours of service each year and generously share their skills and ideas.

The Guelph Humane Society has a strong working relationship with local, provincial, and national animal welfare organizations; local school boards; the City of Guelph; Township of Centre Wellington; Township of Guelph-Eramosa; local veterinarians; the Ontario Veterinary College Health Sciences Centre at the University of Guelph; and Guelph Police Services and the Provincial Crown Attorney’s Office. We are an affiliate society of the Ontario SPCA, and proud member of the Canadian Federation of Humane Societies (CFHS).

Our organization is guided by a Board of Directors made up of volunteers with a wide range of skills and business experience. The Board also convenes several ad hoc committees, which work to address specific issues. Day-to-day operations of the shelter are managed by the Executive Director and senior staff with the Board’s general guidance.

We are a registered charitable, non-profit organization that does not receive government funding. As such, we depend on your donations and private funding to support our important work. The Guelph Humane Society charitable registration number is 119236305RR0001.
