Story

Microchipped, DOB: May 5, 2021 Noireau is a cute little rascal with a big personality. It’s hard to say which he loves more, play or rest. He can generally be found chasing paper balls or napping in any cat bed he can find. He's a hunter whose favourite prey is textiles — think socks, gloves, and the occasional kitchen scrubbie. He’ll proudly carry his “catch” through the house, meowing to announce his victory. Noireau was rescued from a hoarding situation and when he first arrived in foster, he was a very vocal little guy, meowing and hissing (a gentle, non-threatening hiss) almost constantly as he adjusted to his new world. These days, he’s mostly quiet, though he’ll still make his wishes known with meows at mealtimes. Aka, his favourite times! Noireau is full of beans, and would also literally eat all the beans if given the chance. He’s very food-motivated and will do his best to sample whatever his humans are eating. He’s an A+ scavenger, who is known to sometimes go looking for food in places that he shouldn’t. He also needs to be fed separately from his cat roommates, so everyone gets a chance to eat. A clever boy, Noireau has taught himself to open the bathroom door’s lever handle to let himself out once he has finished dinner! Noireau is curious and observant but still cautious with people. He’s learning that humans are all right and that pets are pretty good, and he’s getting more comfortable all the time. With time Noireau is sure to settle in and blossom into his full silly, loving cat self. He is already getting sweeter by the day. One of Noireau’s favourite things in the world is his best friend Karl. Rescued from the same hoarding situation months ago, these two boys went to different foster homes, but were recently reunited in their second placements. They are now looking for a forever home together. If you want to be part of their remarkable story and have a heart big enough for two dorky cats who are still working on their people skills, Noireau will reward you with sweet and silly companionship and the satisfaction of helping a pair of misfit boys learn to find their place among humans.

Story

Microchipped, DOB: May 5, 2021 Karl is a sweet and gentle giant. He’s still learning to trust people, but this handsome boy has come a long way since being rescued from a hoarding situation, and his foster family is proud of how much progress he has made. While he’ll still make himself scarce when startled, when Karl feels relaxed, he’ll accept gentle pets, and there's more affection waiting to come out as his confidence grows. He’s curious, attentive, and endearing, with his oddly shaped mouth that causes his peek-a-boo tongue to make frequent appearances. Karl is a strong, silent type, and a calm and thoughtful observer as he loves to sit nearby and watch his humans. He’s not a chatterbox, except when it comes to food! He’ll meow politely to remind you it’s dinner time and again when he’s finished, just to let you know he’s satisfied. Karl tends to eat very quickly, so he uses a puzzle mat to slow him down and keep his tummy happy. Don’t let his normally calm demeanour fool you though, when the wand toy comes out Karl’s inner hunter takes over! He’s lightning-fast, leaping high and sprinting across the room with his prey. He gets so enthusiastic, it can be hard for his humans to keep a hold of the other end of the toy. Powerful and majestic, Karl doesn’t always know his own strength and will wrestle just a little too hard with his foster siblings, but nobody gets hurt. Karl especially loves chilling out with his BFF Noireau. Karl and Noireau were rescued from the same hoarding situation months ago and were put into different foster homes when they came into TCR’s care. When Karl was first posted for adoption, he was labelled as ‘bad with cats’ but the truth is he was just missing his friend! In a remarkable twist of fate, Karl and Noireau found themselves in need of new foster homes at the same time, and were reunited in their second placement. Immediately they started cuddling, playing, grooming, and comforting each other. It was a reunion! We’re not about to separate these boys again, so this bonded pair is in need of a calm home with a special adopter. Someone who is patient and loving and willing to help Karl to continue to come out of his shell and show the world just how much love he has to offer.

Story

Presenting Hisstropher Nolan — the mysterious mastermind of the barn-cat trio. I’m not here for cuddles, laps, or human theatrics. I’m here for the work: pest control, perimeter patrol, and silent shadow-stalking worthy of an award. I thrive where there’s space to think, roam, and orchestrate my nightly missions — a barn, shed, garage, shop, or any outbuilding where independence is part of the deal. I do still expect the essentials: reliable food, clean water, and a safe, dry spot to retreat when the day’s script calls for rest. As for humans, we can coexist on a mutually respectful, “no touching” agreement. Feed me, appreciate my artistry from afar, but attempt to pick me up and I’ll vanish from the scene faster than a plot twist. If you’re searching for a brilliant, low-maintenance barn cat who delivers high-impact pest control with cinematic precision, I’m your guy. I’m bonded with my littermates Dave Growl and Purrl Jam — a full trilogy of barn-cat talent ready to defend your property and obliterate your rodent problem. *All our working whiskers are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and vet checked, and our adoption fee is up to you to choose ($30 admin fee still applies). You are responsible for providing a safe and suitable living environment, food, water and veterinary care as required.

Story

DOB: March 17th, 2013 Meet Duncan — Your Sweet Senior Gentleman! Duncan is a gentle, affectionate senior who’s looking for a second chance at a loving forever home. He may be 12 and a half, but don’t let his age fool you — this sweet old man still has plenty of energy and enthusiasm for life! At first, Duncan can be a little shy. He needs time and space to decompress in a new environment and won’t accept pets right away. But once he feels safe, his affectionate side shines through. Duncan loves being near his human — lounging beside you on the couch or curling up on the bed when it’s time to sleep. He isn’t much of a lap cat, but he adores companionship and likes to be part of your quiet moments. Despite his senior status, Duncan is surprisingly playful! He enjoys catnip toys, chasing tossed toys, and getting active with wand toys. Once he settles in, expect plenty of adorable headbutts and the sweetest polite paw-taps when he wants attention or pets. Duncan is a bit on the heavier side and will benefit from a controlled diet to help him stay healthy. What he truly needs is a calm, patient adopter who understands that trust takes time — and who will be rewarded with a loyal, loving companion. Duncan has so much love left to give and is ready for the cozy, caring home he deserves. Could you be the one to give him his happily-ever-after? Thank you for welcoming a senior cat into your family - an adoption fee of your choice is appreciated, vs. our standard adult cat adoption fee of $225.
