Story
Misty is the coolest cat in the club.Like the jazz standard she’s named for, Misty is enduring and soulful—a classic in her own right. Rescued from a hoarding situation, she’s learning that life can be more than shadows—it can be swing, warmth, love (and treats!). Misty has that Ella Fitzgerald magic: a quiet presence that grows into a melody of trust once you let her into your heart. ABOUT MISTY-At shelter-Misty is a timid cat who is gradually warming up to the stage crew (volunteers).-This little diva loves her cat tower!-Misty is social with her feline family and regularly interacts with them.-Once she is comfortable, Misty will accept pets with the back-scratcher and by hand.-Misty is spayed, microchipped, dewormed, flea-treated, SNAP-tested for FIV/FeLV, and is up to date on core vaccinations.MISTY’S IDEAL HOME-We are still learning about Misty, but we think she would do great with a patient human who is willing to earn her trust gradually.-Potential adopters should be prepared to commit the time, effort, and patience required to help Misty settle into her new environment.-We are unsure if Misty is good with dogs or young children.-We’d love to see Misty adopted with another feline companion; however, she would also be great in a single-cat household.She may start off shy, but soon you’ll be ‘too misty, and too much in love’. Are you ready to let this cool cat jazz up your life? If so, fill out an adoption application today!If you have any questions about Misty or the adoption process, please contact cats@etobicokehumanesociety.com

Story
Hey friends, my name is Spatzle! I love cozy naps and gentle pets. I`m quite the mellow fellow until a fun toy catches my eye, then watch me go! I arrived to GHS with a head tilt and, while the cause is unknown, I don`t appear to have any negative side effects and it doesn`t slow me down one bit. My days are filled with playful adventures, chasing soft toys, and exploring every cozy corner of my temporary home. I`m looking for a forever home where I can share my love and playful spirit. If you`re looking for a sweet companion to bring joy and playfulness to your life, I`m your boy! MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES...CHILDREN: I could be a good match with calm, respectful children.OTHER CATS: I could be a good match with a friendly and respectful cat after a slow and proper introduction.DOGS: I could be a good match with a cat-savvy dog after a proper introduction.SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME...FIRST TIME CAT OWNERS: YesACTIVITY LEVEL: MediumIf you think I would make a good match for your home, please click the `Adopt Me` button to apply!

Story
Hello Friends, my name is Garamond!I’m a shy brown tabby who takes my time to feel comfortable, so I’d do best in a calm, adult-only home where patience and gentle guidance are part of everyday life. New people and busy environments can make me nervous, but I respond beautifully to quiet encouragement — and treats are my absolute favorite way to build trust and confidence! Once I feel safe, I love curling up in cozy spots, enjoying soft pets, and even snuggling on a warm lap if I know you’re patient. I’m playful in small doses, curious about my surroundings, and always learning to feel braver every day. With a kind, understanding human who lets me go at my own pace, I can blossom into a loyal, affectionate companion who will bring quiet joy, gentle purrs, and a lot of heart to your home. If you’re looking for a treat-loving, cautious tabby who thrives in a calm, patient environment, I could be the perfect match.MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES...CHILDREN: No, I would prefer a calmer home given I can still be timid and am working on my confidence.OTHER CATS: I could be a good match with a friendly cat after a slow and proper introduction.DOGS: I could be a good match with a cat-savvy dog after a proper introduction.SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME...FIRST TIME CAT OWNERS: I would do better in a home with cat experienceACTIVITY LEVEL: Medium-highIf you think I would make a good match for your home, please click the `Adopt Me` button to apply!
