Story
🎨 Meet Marble – A Resilient Tortie Beauty 🎨 📍 Fostered in Kitchener | 🐾 Female | DOB: April 2022 | 💉 Spayed, Vaccinated, Microchipped | Special Needs About Marble: Marble’s journey has been one of courage and survival. Rescued pregnant from the country, her past injuries were only discovered later through x-rays: both of her back legs had been broken in several places and healed on their own. Against all odds, Marble not only walks—she thrives! While she can’t jump very high, she moves confidently, climbs stairs, and enjoys life’s little pleasures. Skills & Personality: 💕 Affectionate Companion – loves pets, cuddles, and even being held 🎶 Chatty Girl – will let you know when it’s time for attention (or moist food!) 🪶 Playful Spirit – enjoys chasing the laser, wand toys, and lounging in her tunnel 🛏️ Routine Lover – naps daily in her cozy cat bed, often followed by birdwatching from the window 🐾 Independent but Loving – a little shy at first, but blossoms once she trusts you Special Notes: 🩺 Marble has arthritis from her past injuries and receives a monthly Solensia injection ($70+/month depending on vet) to keep her comfortable and pain-free. 🐕 Not tested with dogs. 🐈 Would thrive best as an only pet so she can soak up all the love and attention. Ideal Home: Marble would do best with a single adopter or quiet couple who can provide her with stability, patience, and lots of affection. She’s ready for her second chance—a forever home where she can finally receive the love she always deserved. 💜 Adoption Details: Apply to adopt at rtcrescue.ca ✨ Give Marble the happily-ever-after she’s been waiting for – she’s ready to fill your home with love.

RHINESTONE Female DOB May 13, 2025 Spayed, vaccinated including rabies, dewormed several times, microchipped RHINESTONE is an absolutely stunning torbie with velvety soft fur and a personality just as lovely!! She’s super sweet and happily lets you pick her up, soaking up all the doting you can give. This clever girl is also a bit of a genius! When we had a donated cat wheel arrive, she figured it out in under a minute! When she’s not showing off her smarts, she loves wrestling with her brother, Rascal, and playing with her kitten crew. Rhinestone will need a home with another friendly feline companion, or she can be adopted alongside her brother, Rusty, for the perfect duo. You can now go to our website to apply directly!
