Story

FIV/FeLV negative, DOB: Aug 31, 2020 Personality: Sir Fluff is a sweet, curious, and remarkably intelligent boy who wants nothing more than to be near his people. While he isn't quite a lap cat yet, he is a dedicated "sidekick" who will cuddle up against you on the sofa and loves to sleep close to his humans, day or night. He is a social boy who will follow you into the kitchen to supervise your cooking and will be waiting patiently at the door the moment you get home. Funny quirks: -He has a distinct, regal gait that makes him look like a miniature king of the jungle. -When it comes to playtime, he prefers to stalk his favourite wand toys or the Cat Dancer from a distance for a long time before making his grand pounce. -When he’s feeling particularly playful and wants your attention, he’ll let you know with a playful paw or a gentle "love bite" at your ankles. -He isn't much of a climber. Instead, he prefers the finer things at ground level, like tunnels, closets, and cozy dark spaces. History: Sir Fluff came to Toronto Cat Rescue after his previous family found they could no longer manage his specialized health needs. Now five years old, he is looking for a forever home that can provide the consistent care he needs to stay healthy and handsome. Sir Fluff is a cat who requires a dedicated owner to manage two main areas: Skin Care: He has a skin condition that is easily managed with a quick dab of transdermal steroid cream on his ear every other day. During Toronto winters, he also appreciates a humidifier to keep his skin hydrated. Sensitive Tummy: He has a very sensitive stomach and must stay on his vet-prescribed diet. Because certain treats can cause tummy upset, he needs a family that can be disciplined with his snacks. Fitness Goals: As a "big boy", Sir Fluff is on a journey to a healthier weight and will need a family to help him stick to his diet plan. Special note from the foster family: Sir Fluff truly lives up to his valiant title. When he first arrived, he was struggling with significant fur loss, scabs, and tummy issues that seemed impossible to solve. Watching his transformation has been one of the most rewarding experiences of our lives. Today, he is a different cat: his coat is long, thick, and beautiful, and his health is stable and managed. He’s ready to face the world!

Not good with cats,

Story

FIV/FeLV negative, DOB: Jan 13, 2021 Ernie is a laid-back, gentle boy who loves comfort, calm spaces, and quiet companionship. His favorite things include napping (especially under blankets), getting pets and head scratches, and playing. He has playful bursts in the mornings and evenings—his favorite toy is a bird wand—but overall he’s more of a relaxed, easygoing guy. When he’s not tucked under a blanket, Ernie will politely wait nearby and meow to let you know when he’d like food, playtime, or a little attention. He’s calm and quiet at night, comfortable being picked up, and very gentle. If he ever gets annoyed, he’ll give a soft paw tap instead of scratching. Despite having a tough start in life, Ernie is truly a softie at heart. He did get into some fights with another neighbourhood cat when he was a stray though, so it seems he’s not his usual softie self when it comes to other cats. Funny quirks: -Thinks blankets are both his enemy and best friend. He wants to hide under them but is personally offended when they move. -Will wait for you outside of closed doors and slide his paws underneath to get your attention -Absolutely goes bonkers for the feather string toy. -Really likes scotch tape rolls and is intrigued by origami making History: Ernie began showing up in a Toronto neighborhood in mid-September of 2025. At first, he appeared healthy, so it was assumed he had a home. By November, he was visiting a Toronto home more frequently, and it became clear he was living outdoors. He was very tough and territorial with other cats, but still showed moments of friendliness and allowed occasional petting. As winter set in, life outside became harder and Ernie grew more defensive. After the New Year, during a period of extreme cold and snow, it was clear he had been abandoned and was surviving fully outdoors. Flyers were posted, but no owner came forward. Around this time, Ernie appeared with visible injuries to his face and ear. Concerned for his safety, he was coaxed indoors with food and given a secure sanctuary space, marking the start of his journey off the streets and into care. Special note from my foster family: My family really bonded with Ernie, he is a wonderful cat and who just got dealt a bad hand. When we first picked him up the vet said he was very scared. He was a little scared at first, but very quickly he became comfortable and a big old softy. We couldn't believe Ernie was a big boss on the streets just because of how friendly and chill he is. Overall, Ernie is the kind of cat who quietly steals your heart. He’s affectionate, easygoing, and full of love, and he’s ready to share that love with a forever family who will give him the safe, cozy life he deserves.

Story

In a city ruled by shadows… one name whispers through the alleyways: Gotham. At 2–3 years old, Gotham is massive in stature and legend alike. Broad-shouldered. Towering. A dark-coated monarch with eyes that gleam like signal lights against the dark. If there were a feline criminal underworld, he’d be running it — no questions asked. They say he prowls the night. They say he’s dangerous. They say he controls the streets. But here’s the twist… This so-called ruler of the underworld is secretly afraid of his own shadow. Drop a spoon? He vanishes. See a mysterious moving reflection? Immediate tactical retreat. Hear an unexpected noise? The “Dark Knight” becomes the “Dash Knight.” Behind that imposing frame and brooding presence is the gentlest soul you’ll ever meet. Gotham doesn’t want chaos — he wants chin scratches. He doesn’t crave power — he craves reassurance. And once you earn his trust? You unlock the softest, most loyal companion in the city. He’ll lean that giant frame into you like you’re the only safe rooftop in town. He’ll rumble with a purr so deep it feels like distant thunder rolling across the skyline. And he’ll follow you from room to room, your silent, oversized shadow (ironically, still suspicious of his own). Gotham would thrive in a home that understands big personalities often hide tender hearts. Give him patience, gentle love, and a cozy hideaway or two — and you’ll discover that beneath the brooding exterior lies a sweet, slightly dramatic cuddlebug who just wants to feel safe. The city may fear him. But you’ll adore him. Adopt Gotham — and let this gentle giant retire from the criminal underworld… straight into your arms.
