Viewable in Shelter: No, in staff-only area. Apply below to potentially be selected for a meet and greet.Meet Blue!Sweet Blue came to us with a urinary blockage that required immediate medical attention. No matter how bad it got, Blue's spirit stayed high. Always up for a cuddle, he'd greet everyone with a hearty purr and plenty of headbutts. A staff favorite, we're so excited for him to find his forever home now that he's finally on the mend! His favorite hobbies include making biscuits while you read or watch TV, and reminding you that productivity is overrated when cuddles are available.Blue needs to be on a urinary diet for life to prevent future bladder issues, and would do best in a quiet household to minimize his stress levels.

Meet Filius from our Harry Potter litter. He's ready to find his forever home. This fall, we received a call from animal control asking if we could take in a male cat that was brought to them as a stray and not claimed. Of course, we said yes, and we welcomed 'him' into our foster program, although we very quickly discovered that 'he' was actually a she and was very pregnant! Not long afterward, our Harry Potter litter was born. They've been growing up with one of our experienced foster families and they're now old enough to start looking for homes. Filius was the first kitten born and always behaves like a big brother. He watches over his siblings and makes sure to cuddle each of them. He's more of the 'supervisor' who likes to watch everything that's going on rather than being the kid that gets right in there to play. Therefore, he comes across as being a quiet kitten. When they are all playing he is right with them, but doesn't seem to start the excitement. Filius is a sweet boy who cuddles his friends and his humans alike. All of the kittens in this litter get along together very well. They spend a lot of time cuddling, playing, and hanging out with each other. They will do really well in homes with other cats and priority will be given to families who want to adopt pairs. Thus far, they have no experience with dogs, but are fairly confident so could do well if introduced properly. They have spent some time around older kids.

Valka and her kittens, Tuffnut (aka Tuffy), and Toothless (aka Toofy) are a really special trio of cats and we're looking for the perfect home for them. Valka spent most of her short life living on her own, fending for herself as a stray. This past summer she had 3 kittens and when they were quite young they became ill and one of the kittens sadly passed away. We were able to catch the family shortly thereafter and have nursed them back to health. This family is so bonded to one another that we would really love to see them stay together long-term. Toofy & Tuffy were born as feral kittens and have come a very long way since then, but they need to find just the right home to help them thrive and continue on with their socialization. Valka is a domestic cat but she obviously has significant trauma from the experiences that she's had and it takes her a really long time to learn how to trust new people. It will take a very special person to give this trio the right home, but if you are an experienced cat-caregiver and are comfortable working with under-socialized cats, we'd love to hear from you. Toofy is the black & white kitten and he was the more curious and forward of the two brothers at first. He may be the smaller of the two, but Toofy was the first one to be brave enough to accept attention and handling from his foster mom. The key to this boy's heart is through food, but he can be a bit pushy for his food too so you have to find a balance. If he knows that you have food for him he gets grabby. Once Toofy trusts you, he is sweet and follows you around asking for attention. He has a wonderful purr and is a real gentleman. Tuffy (orange) is the more dominant of the two kittens once he's settled in, but he started out much less brave than his brother and it took a long time for his confidence to build. When he first arrived he would hiss, spit, and strike at his foster mom (out of fear) if she got too close. She spent a long time building his trust and Tuffy is actually quite pushy now and barges his way to the front of the line to get attention. He is now the more forward and friendly of the two kittens and really just craves attention. Like his brother, he does sometimes give love-nips when he gets over-stimulated during a cuddle session. Tuffy will purr, and rub, and roll around to get attention but every few pets he gets a bit over-stimulated and he will nip at his foster mom. She will take a very brief time out from petting him and then go right back to it until Tuffy starts to get over-stimulated again. He is learning quickly and does understand the word 'no' but it's important for his new owner to have a good handle on how to read Tuffy's body language and have experience working with under-socialized cats. These two boys are food motivated, which makes them a bit easier to work with. Valka takes a lot longer than her boys do to trust a new person and will definitely spend a lot of time hiding when she goes to her new home. She really needs someone to give her space and let her come out of her shell at her own pace. Valka really follows the lead of her boys so once they start to trust someone and interact with them, she starts to trust as well. Once she trusts you, she will rub on you, purr, and interact gently. This trio will do well in the right home. They have the potential to become the best little companions but it is going to take them quite a while to get used to a new home and develop trust with a new person (or people.) It took their current foster mom several months before any of them would allow handling. They are afraid of dogs because before they came into our care they were in an environment where they were regularly chased by aggressive dogs. They have been around other cats and are OK with them as long as the other cats are nice to them. It is very important that they go to an adult-only home; they cannot be around children. If you are interested in this trio, please visit https://victoriapets.ca/adoption-process/ to learn about our adoption process and to find a copy of our adoption application. We'd love to hear about your home and previous experience with under-socialized cats. Please note that this trio is only available for adoption to those living on southern Vancouver Island or the Gulf Islands.

This sweet little bundle of fun is Chewie. He's a well-rounded kitten who is looking for a home with other cats that will keep him mentally stimulated. Chewie was found hiding under a wood pile when he was only 4-5 weeks old. Right from the start, Chewie has been a playful, curious, and sweet little guy. He is great at playing by himself to keep busy, but he also really loves to wrestle with the other kitties in his foster home. His play style can be a little bit rough, so a rough and tumble boy that can keep up with Chewie without hurting him, would be ideal. For some reason, Chewie seems more comfortable with male cats, but he might do well with a female cat that has a very motherly instinct. It can take him a little bit of time to get used to a new cat, so one that is patient with him is ideal. Since Chewie was a single kitten, he didn't learn bite inhibition when he was very young so he uses his mouth a lot. He likes to chew on toys, but also on fingers and toes. It's important that Chewie's new family appropriately kitten-proofs the home, and can work toward making sure he knows which substrates are Ok to put in his mouth and which are not. Since he can be mouthy, Chewie wont be the right fit for a home with children. Thus far, he has zero experience with dogs. When Chewie is done playing, he is snuggly. He has a great purr and will share it with you while he perches on your shoulder or curls up in your lap. He is food motivated, and loves treats, but isn't pushy about it. He will come running if he hears the treat bag or a can being opened.
