Story
Adventure calls, and Jordan is ready to answer! This confident, outgoing feline is a true explorer at heart. Whether it’s a sunny window perch or strutting his stuff on a harness and leash, Jordan is always ready to discover something new. Friendly and curious, this handsome boy will greet you with a confident meow and a twinkle in his eye, letting you know he’s ready to be your partner-in-crime for all things fun and fabulous. Jordan thrives on attention and has the kind of personality that makes every day feel like an adventure. Despite his adventurous spirit, Jordan would thrive in a calm, quiet home with older, cat-savvy kids. He would do best as the only cat, as he can sometimes feel stressed when settling in around other feline friends.If you’re looking for a fearless, leash-loving companion who’s equal parts heart and hijinks, Jordan is your guy. Strap in, because life with him is sure to be an exciting ride!***NOTE*** Please remember that animals are coming back from foster care to the centres for their meet and greets. They will be experiencing a new environment and meeting new people, which means they may not exhibit the same behaviours they did in their foster videos or while in foster care.If you are viewing this animal through 24Petconnect by PetPlace or Adopt-a-pet, please visit our website https://kwsphumane.ca/adopt/process to submit an application.

Good with cats,
Story
DOB: April 1, 2023 Obi-Wan is a cat who loves being where the action is or where his favourite people are. He is gentle, sweet, and will do anything for some pets. His adorable face is sure to melt your heart when you meet him! While he’s a fairly quiet cat, he’ll happily meow to remind you when it’s dinner time. The rest of the time, he prefers to communicate with soft chortles and happy purrs while spending time with his people (especially when he sleeps beside you at night). During the day, he loves to play and toss his toys in the air like a little acrobat. He also has a funny habit of making himself the centre of attention, so if you’re working on a puzzle, don’t be surprised if he stretches out on top of it to help you out! Belly rubs are his absolute favourite and guaranteed to make him happy. He prefers to keep all four paws on the ground though, and isn’t a fan of being picked up or having his paws handled. When he first arrived in foster care he was very shy, and it took a few weeks for him to feel comfortable and show his true personality. Because of this, he’ll need a patient home willing to give him time to settle in. Once he feels safe though, he’s a loving and wonderful companion. His foster family says he’s been an excellent house guest with perfect with the litter box, quick to use scratching posts, and he hasn’t tried to scratch furniture at all! Obi-Wan deserves a calm, caring home where he can continue to thrive. If you’re looking for a sweet companion who will share your bed, your puzzles, and lots of belly rubs, Obi-Wan might be the cat for you!

Not good with kids, Not good with cats,
Story
DOB: February 23, 2020 Baby is a petite black-and-white tuxedo girl whose greatest joy is being close to her person. With her charming markings that look like a tiny Batgirl mask, she brings both sweetness and personality wherever she goes. Baby loves quiet companionship and is happiest curled up on a warm lap or nestled close to your neck, often climbing up to perch near your shoulder so she can stay as close as possible. She settled into her foster home quickly and easily, showing just how ready she is for a place to truly call her own. Baby would thrive as the only cat in the home, where she can be the queen of her space and share her affection with her people. She prefers a calm, adult-only household and will gently let you know when she has had enough attention. Quiet, loving, and deeply devoted, Baby is ready to give her whole heart to the person lucky enough to welcome her home.
