Domestic Mediumhair kittens & cats in Essex, Ontario

Applesauce is a gorgeous boy, he has lived with other cats harmoniously however he has decided that litterboxes are beneath him, he prefers to have the freedom to go where and when he pleases. This boy is fairly independant but will expect his hired help to provide a warm place to live with some access to the great outdoors and regular meals, in exchange he may deter some rodents and grace you with some affection (when he is ready!) Applesauce is part of our Signature Pets Working Whiskers program, his adoption fee is up to you to decide!

Once I get to know you, I'll be your loyal companion. I value my independence, but that doesn't mean I don't appreciate a good chin scratch every now and then. Life's simple pleasures, you know? I'm looking for someone who understands my mellow nature and respects my space. If you're seeking a sweet, gentle, and independent friend, I might just be your perfect match.Perhaps you will come and meet me at Yay for Strays Cat Cafe - I am on my way to hang out with my friends!

Hello!!! My name is Cookie, you can find me at the shelter protecting my sister Milkshake. I'm a sweet man who loves to be pet, and will nuzzle into your hand as you give me chin scratches. I'm sweet, cuddly and super soft, and I think you could say I'm a pretty confident cat. My sister is a little bit more shy so she tends to follow my lead, but if you have the time and patience I'm sure we'd be a great fit in your home. Adopt us and gain 2 new best friends!

Tallulah enjoys lounging around and getting pets on her own terms. She loves to play with a laser and string, showing off her playful side. She's also very food motivated, making treat time a fun and rewarding experience for both her and her adopter. This lovely lady prefers a calm environment with minimal noise and traffic. She may take some time to get used to her new surroundings, so a patient adopter who is willing to let her come out of her shell at her own pace is essential.

Amelia Rose came to us with a terrible upper respiratory infection that destroyed her left eye. This poor girl also had just about every intestinal parasite a cat can get. For the first month in foster care, she was forced to endure frequent doses of yukky medications. She was very hand shy to begin with, and constantly being grabbed and held for medication has caused her to be very hand shy. She loves to be petted, however if she thinks I'm going to try to grab her, she takes off. She will get on my lap and cuddles with me in bed, but she can't be picked up. I had to sneak up on her to catch her for her spay surgery and she has already forgiven me for that. She will need a patient owner and a very calm home. Crazy dogs running around or young kids being loud and running through the house would terrify her.Amelia is not a hider. When we have company over, she does come out watch what's going on. If I have a friend over to watch movies, Amelia may get on her lap, but if we have several friends over for game night, she just watches from a distance. She really just hates the idea of being held or picked up. Nail trims or giving medication will be next to impossible unless she overcomes her fear of being held. I've only trimmed her nails once and it required getting her to eat a sedative in a treat, waiting for her to go into a dog crate for food and locking her in there. I then called a friend to come over and it took about 5 minutes to be able to catch her with a towel, even though she was crated. My friend then had to hold her down on the sofa, while I searched for her paws inside the towel so I could do her nails. It was quite a process and not something I look forward to doing again.Amelia's best friend is another kitten that's been here for a few months while being treated for an eye issue. She chases and wrestles with the kitten many times during the day. She gets along with everyone from my younger cats to my seniors and is fine with our mellow dogs. I do not adopt my kittens out as an only cat. If you are interested, please email Beagmom1@yahoo.com. Thank you. **All Shelter to Home animals are fully vetted per their age.

Templeton and his brother were taken from an especially rough hoarding situation. Police intervened and all animals were extracted. It took a while for Templeton to overcome his fear of being hurt, but he did it! And is he ever a silly boy! He would thrive in a home with another mild mannered cat, and currently lives with calm dogs.
