Kittens and cats in Toronto, Ontario

DOB: October 12, 2017 (8 years old) Please note, this is a posting through the Courtesy Adoption Program. Please contact the current owner directly for more details. Their details are below. Ragdoll / Snowshoe mix, seal point with white markings. Weight 14 lbs. Piggy is a beautiful seal point girl with the most expressive deep blue eyes you've ever seen — and a personality even more beautiful than her face. She is the textbook definition of a velcro cat: she will follow you from room to room, curl up beside you while you work, and gently headbutt your face the moment you lie down to sleep. She talks to her humans constantly, "asking" for attention with the sweetest little meows, and she absolutely thrives on being noticed and loved. Piggy is incredibly easy to live with at home. She uses her litter box reliably, isn't picky about food, and is wonderfully tolerant of handling — nail trims are no fuss at all, and she can be picked up and cuddled by anyone. She is not shy with strangers and will happily greet new people who come to visit. Her health is excellent: aside from routine annual checkups, she has never had a single medical issue in her 8 years of life. She is slightly above her ideal weight at 14 lbs and would benefit from portion-controlled feeding. Piggy would do best as the only cat in a calm, indoor-only home. She does not enjoy the company of other cats and would much rather have her humans all to herself. She would be a wonderful companion for anyone who can give her a stable, loving home — someone settled, calm, and willing to be her devoted person. A few things her new family should know, in the spirit of full transparency: - Piggy finds car rides and travel very stressful. As long as her new home is permanent and she lives as a settled indoor cat, this is never an issue at home — she is calm, content, and completely at ease in her own space. - At the vet clinic, Piggy can become defensive and reactive due to the combination of car-ride stress and the smell of other cats in the clinic environment. We strongly recommend choosing a nearby vet clinic to minimize travel time, and pre-visit gabapentin (a safe, commonly prescribed anti-anxiety medication for cats) can make vet visits much smoother. This is very manageable.- None of this travel/vet anxiety appears at home. The moment she's back in her own space, she is the same gentle, affectionate, talkative little princess she always is. We are rehoming Piggy with great love and great care. Our future involves an international career that will require frequent travel, and we have come to accept that this lifestyle is not one Piggy can adapt to — she has shown us, clearly and repeatedly, that she needs stability to be happy. She is looking for her final, forever home: someone settled in Canada long-term, ideally a local Toronto resident, who can promise her she will never have to move again. If that sounds like you, she will reward you with years of the most loyal, affectionate companionship you could ask for. An adoption fee applies that covers all of Piggy's belongings, current food, litter, and complete vet records (please email for details). Serious inquiries only. Please include in your initial message: - A brief introduction about yourself and your household - Your living situation (house/apartment, owned/rented, how long you've lived there) - Whether you have any other pets (Piggy must be the only cat) - Your experience with cats, especially with handling vet visits - Why you are interested in adopting Piggy Piggy is participating in our Courtesy Adoption Posting Program and is not the property of Toronto Cat Rescue.

DOB May 11, 2022 Hi, my name is Olivia! I am a charming, quirky, affectionate, curious, and VERY playful cat! I have an abundance of energy and like to play with mice and spring toys until I’m panting. I also love chasing strings, wand toys, caves, tunnels, kicker toys, and just scampering around! I am good at entertaining myself, but I also need playtime with my family every day. If it’s been a while since you played with me, I will very gently ambush you from a hiding spot or paw at you as you walk by. I also enjoy bird-watching and cat TV, or joining you on the couch for your favourite show. When I'm tuckered out and need to snooze, a good cardboard box on the windowsill or a comfortable cat tree are my favourite napping spots. Even though I’m not a lap cat, I am quite affectionate and sociable, warming up quickly to new people. I like to join my foster parents for naps, greet them at the door, and rub my cheek against them to say 'thank you' when they feed me. I also enjoy following them around whenever they’re doing something interesting like opening the fridge or showering. I am good with cats and would be happiest in a home with a playful cat my age or younger. I like to play tag with the resident cat, as it gives me an excuse to run around. I can sometimes get jealous when other cats get attention, but I only demonstrate this by rubbing against you and reminding you that I would like pets too, please! I am also curious about many things and will explore closets and cupboards. I am generally good about not eating plants, but if you have a spider plant, I will feast upon it. I am good at grooming myself, keeping my coat shiny and soft, but I will also love being brushed by you. I will need a large/tall litter-box, as well as patience and understanding as an old tail injury may be the cause for some of my ongoing issues with using the litter-box (being on a prescription food and supplement has helped somewhat). I am a very entertaining and quirky cat to watch. I am cartoonishly bouncy, leaping from the couch to the floor to the couch again. I also enjoy my nightly routine of joining my foster parents as they brush their teeth, and I like to stare at the water going down the drain. Note from foster parent: Olivia is a very special cat that charms everyone she meets. She is sweet, weird, and playful to the max. She is very loving, often coming up to say hi or see what we’re up to, and she likes to check in at night to snuggle for a few minutes. Her zoomies are endlessly entertaining, and she’s very gentle when asking you to play with her. All in all, her personality is incredible. She does need a home that can keep up with her energy levels by playing with her twice a day (even if just in short bursts) and provide an enriching environment for her (e.g., toys, caves, tunnels, scratching posts, trees, cardboard boxes). She will do everything she can to show her gratitude for your care by filling your life with love, joy, affection, and zoomies!

DOB: March 6, 2022 - FIV/FeLV Negative Phoenix is being fostered at one of Toronto Cat Rescue’s partner locations. Please note that if you’re approved to adopt, you’ll need to pick them up from the store within 24 hours of being approved. I’m Phoenix, a little about myself: My days are quiet and peaceful, filled with gentle moments and cozy places to watch the world go by. I can be a little shy when we first meet, but give me some time and patience, and you’ll soon see my sweet personality begin to shine. Once I feel safe and comfortable, I’m happy to settle in nearby and enjoy your company. I’m a gentle soul who would love a calm home where I can take things at my own pace and build a special bond with my people. I’m also good with other cats, so I could do well with a feline friend with a proper introduction. Phoenix has had all of her teeth extracted, but that doesn’t stop this girl from enjoying her meals If you’re looking for a loving, gentle companion who will bring warmth, quiet joy, and plenty of sweet moments to your home, Phoenix may be just the cat for you!

DOB: July 21, 2015- FIV/FeLV Negative Meet Minerva! At 11 years old, she’s a big girl (in both maturity and size!) with an even bigger heart. She knows exactly what she wants and that will always be lots of pets, head and chin scratches, and belly rubs. Minerva had her life turned upside down when her previous family moved abroad and unfortunately could not take her with them. She has been quite affected emotionally by the change and will need some time to gradually become accustomed to a new home (starting in a small space would be best), but she is quick to trust new humans. In settling into her foster home she has always been a very sweet lady who is quick to purr just for being in the presence of her foster family. While Minerva is very gentle with humans, she would likely do best in a quieter home. She may become more playful after settling into her forever home, however, so far she seems to prefer being a couch potato with her favourite place being her cozy bed. 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 $250.

DOB 6-Jun-2016 - FIV Positive Meet Jinxsky, a sweet and gentle senior cat with soft medium black fur. Jinxsky is a shy gentleman in the beginning, he is not fond of loud noises, often getting scared by this. would He do best in a home environment that is calm and quiet. Jinxsky has only been in his foster home for a few days and already loves to snuggle on the couch and bed with his foster parent. Jinxsky has tested positive for FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus). FIV+ cats can live long happy lives with a good diet, low stress, indoor homes, loving families, and annual vet check-ins. They don't require medication and can live in a home with other non-FIV+ cats, as the virus is only passed to other cats by blood (i.e. deep bite marks) and can't be passed to dogs or humans. Please don't judge them based on a blood test! Please consider bringing Jinxsky, a senior cat into your home, where you'll be rewarded with a loyal and loving companion for years to come! 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 $250.

DOB: Feb 27, 2022 - FIV/FeLV Negative I'm Ryan, I'm looking for my forever home. I dream of a quiet place where I can relax and show my true, loving self. I might take a little while to come out of my shell, but I promise to be a gentle and loyal companion once I get comfortable. I'm just waiting for someone patient and kind, who understands that all I need is a little time and a lot of love. Adopting me means gaining a friend who will cherish every quiet moment we share together. I would do well with your resident kitty providing a proper and gradual introduction is followed.
