Please note that if you’re approved to adopt, you’ll need to pick them up from the store within 24 hours of being approved. H.R. is an active, gentle, and playful kitten with a curious nature.

His favorite toys include plastic springs, feather wands, and even a sewing measuring tape. H.R. is very friendly boy. Although he did not show strong lap cat behavior while in foster care, he is easy to pick up and has a wonderfully easygoing temperament.

Story
Grace and Frankie came to live with me, and my cat Quinn, last fall after spending their first few months of life outdoors in a cat colony. Over the last year, Grace & Frankie have grown from timid, shy and rambunctious kittens to confident, loving and playful indoor little ladies who enjoy spending time with me. Frankie is a smart huntress who has become my shadow, sending me love blinks from a safe distance out of petting range. I am convinced with time she will one day ask for pets; for now, she indulges a few nose boops and kisses a day. On some mornings I even wake to Frankie purring on my chest, as she knows my arms are safely tucked under my blanket. Frankie is obsessed with chewing paper; she is happy as long as she has a cardboard scratch pad to slowly bite apart and the occasional sacrificial notebook page. She also occasionally drowns her mouse toy in her water bowl in the dead of night—this is a new quirk. But her all-time favourite is any rope; I think I won Frankie over mainly because I animate strings to hunt. Grace and Frankie are still playful kittens but are now also well-mannered indoor cats. They enjoy spending most of their time entertaining each other—chasing, wrestling, or grooming each other in their cat tree basket. They are still itty bitty at 10 lbs each and manage to squeeze into the one basket! I believe it will take them a few more years to grow fully into their frames. Between bouts of play, Grace and Frankie are my constant companions along with my cat Quinn, always napping nearby. Grace and Frankie have good litter box habits, are spayed, and have all their shots. They are in good health, other than being advised by the vet to eat dental kibble to care for their gingivitis. Grace and Frankie require medication for transport as it makes them extremely nervous. I leave all my cat carriers out for napping/hiding spots in my home so the girls are now easy to put into their carriers. They are well behaved at the vet and have never had accidents when travelling to and from the vet. Grace and Frankie are amazing cats who I know will continue to flourish in a loving home.Grace and Frankie must be adopted together.Like all ACR cats, Frankie is up-to-date on vaccines and has been treated for fleas and parasites.

Story
Whiskey is shy but sweet. She generally keeps her distance... until you have something she might like to eat. She has the most adorable slow-blink, which is actually just a partial wink. She`ll make you work for it though, but she`s worth it. She`ll hang out in bed with you once she`s settled in. At the foot, of course. She follows her brother everywhere and is quite the brave and rambunctious girl. Nothing is too high for her to climb. She’ll hiss if you startle her but never fear since she doesn`t bite. She would do well in a home with other pets. Whiskey must be adopted with her brother Jack or as a buddy to a friendly resident cat.Like all ACR cats, Whiskey is up-to-date on vaccines and has been treated for fleas and parasites.

Story
This cutie is loving indoor life! Foxy lived as an outdoor colony cat in the Finch/ Dufferin area until it was noticed she was having teeth / eating problems over time. Foxy was brought into animal services and it was determined her teeth were damaged and needed to go. Unfortunately that did not leave a lot of options for an outdoor cat! Luckily ACR got involved and she got the medical care she needed and a nice place to recover! Now, Foxy loves to eat a good meal of wet food or small kibble and drink lots of water. Her teeth had to be removed but on the plus side, no more teeth complications! Her youthful personality is so wonderful. She loves playing with chase toys, brushing up against legs and hands for petting, and brushing up against other cats. She has only love and affection for other cats (no dogs have been tested so far)! In less than a month, Foxy has been an absolutely great house guest at her foster home with no incidents of furniture destruction, counter surfing, or litter box accidents. She is okay to be picked up here and there, but would not be a good candidate for a home with small kids, as she likes having private spaces too. Like a fox, this cat is an urban survivor! Now, Foxy is ready to be a great addition to a long-term, loving home. Foxy is negative for FIV and FeLV. Like all ACR cats, Foxy is up-to-date on vaccines and has been treated for fleas and parasites.
