Story
Say hello to Nutmeg, an adorable little cat with the cutest white socks! From the moment she stepped into her foster home, she has been curious and playful, exploring every corner of the house with her quirky, independent personality. Nutmeg is sweet and affectionate. She loves scratches and brushes from anyone, and will happily tolerate being picked up and held for a while. Her foster family reports that she’s not so much of a lap cat or cuddler, but she’s social and loves being near the action, often following people around just to be part of the fun. Nutmeg also has a cozy side, in her foster home she enjoys napping in sheltered spots like under beds and loves watching the world go by from a window. Her foster family has found her to be easygoing, super easy to care for, and full of charm. Nutmeg’s love is wrapped up in warmth, sweetness, and just a pinch of seasonal spice. She is the perfect cat for curling up by twinkling lights or watching the snow fall from a window. Submit an application today if you think this sweet girl the one for you!***NOTE*** Please remember that animals are coming back from foster care to the centres for their meet and greets.

Story
Timothy / Neutered Male / 1.5 Years / DSH - Brown Tabby with White / Dogs: No / Cats: Untested / Kids: Yes / Location: Port Elgin Meet Mr. Timothy! This handsome 1.5 year old gentleman is as charming as they come. Timothy loves his pets and cuddles, on his own cat like terms, of course, and he’s always up for some playtime with his favourite toys and treats. His daily routine? Watching the world go by from his window perch, keeping an eye on the neighbourhood happenings like the sophisticated boy he is. Timothy is also a rare gem, he’s great in the car! That’s not something many cats can brag about. This sweet, affectionate boy loves to be around his people. Whether he’s following you from room to room, curling up beside you, or politely asking for attention, Timothy’s gentle presence is constant. He’s smart, curious, and quick to pick up on your routines and moods. While Timothy has been around dogs before, he wasn’t their biggest fan. With time he might adjust, but he’d really prefer to be your one and only feline king. Ready to give this handsome boy his forever home? https://forms.gle/fdhenPLEDRYfkXdc7

Story
Hi there, my name is Tahini!I am a sweet girl with a gentle and sensitive personality. I can be shy and easily startled by loud noises or sudden movements, so I’m looking for a mature, calm home where I can feel safe and secure. A quiet environment with a predictable routine helps me relax and build confidence at my own pack. I do best with patient, understanding people who have experience with shy or timid cats and know how to let trust grow naturally. Once I feel comfortable, I show my sweet side in quiet ways—soft curiosity, gentle affection, and peaceful companionship. If you’re someone who appreciates a soft, sensitive soul and understands the rewards of earning a shy cat’s trust, I could be a wonderful match for you..MY IDEAL HOME INVOLVES...CHILDREN: I could be a good match with mature, older children.OTHER CATS: I could be a good match with a calm and respectful cat after a proper introduction.DOGS: I could be a good match with a calm, cat-savvy dog after a proper introduction.SOME OTHER THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT ME...FIRST TIME CAT OWNERS: No, I would be better in a home with previous cat experienceACTIVITY LEVEL: Medium-highIf you think I would make a good match for your home, please click the `Adopt Me` button to apply!
