Bengal kittens & cats in Acton, Ontario

Simba is a big, buff, very high-energy adolescent Bengal mixed cat. He was surrendered by a previous owner who understood that Simba needed more attention at home than he could possibly provide. With people he trusts, Simba loves kisses and forehead scratches, and shows his appreciation by giving head bonks and licks to his foster mom. However, he also plays roughly on occasion and thinks that humans are playtoys. He will sometimes grab your leg and chomp down to prevent you leaving the house. He does not mind being picked up and loves to sleep curled up next to his foster mom. He likes meeting new people, especially if they will admire his cat wheel skills. Simba requires a lot of playtime per day, and sometimes nips or swats when he is not given enough attention. Because of this, Simba must be adopted into a home without young children and you must have previous Bengal experience. Simba would love to have a human to play with regularly, or a home with more than one person. Although he has lived with cats before and has gotten along selectively with some, he has also shown aggression towards others. Simba should be the only cat in his household so he can be the centre of the universe. Simba sometimes craves attention a little aggressively when he’s ignored. However he’s easily distracted and entertained by an electric ball, or the Roomba allowing his foster mom time to tend to daily chores. With more space available to run around and more people to entertain him, Simba has the potential to be a good family member. ***** Simba needs to be a single cat*****

Now she prefers confidently walking about the shelter during “out time”, sometimes even playfully teasing the other cats.- She is full of zest and high energy with a penchant for morning “zoomies” and climbing to the very top of the tallest cat tree. When she does settle down for a snooze, the cat tree is her happy place.- She’s commandeered her own private suite at the shelter, which is a larger kennel with extra space to help her relax and be more comfortable.- Nala is a very vocal and chatty cat.

Meet Ziggy!Ziggy is a super friendly cat who loves people. He is patient with children, and even gets along well with dogs. He loves being part of the family. He is happiest curled up in someone's lap, soaking up pets.Ziggy's ideal home is one where he can safely enjoy time outdoors. He has a very strong desire to be outside and has repeatedly found ways to escape despite our best efforts to keep him indoors. He has clawed through window screens and will dash through open doors whenever he gets the chance.Unfortunately, we live in an area where outdoor cats are not permitted, and we've come to the difficult realization that we can't provide the lifestyle he clearly wants and needs.We also want to be transparent that Ziggy has a history of spraying, even though he is neutered. This has occurred both outdoors and occasionally inside the home. Because of this, he may be best suited to an experienced cat owner who understands territorial marking behaviours and is willing to work with him.
