Story
Meet lovely Nina,This gorgeous, affectionate lady absolutely adores humans and will have a full conversation with you as you do household errands. She has become somewhat of an employee at the SPCA, as we pull up a spare office chair for her to sit in next to us as we work (she's been a great supervisor, not a micromanager at all!) Nina is currently on a weight loss plan until she reaches her ideal weight. Her big heart and bigger personality makes her the Queen of the castle and prefers to be the only cat of the household. Come in and meet Nina! Primary Color: Calico Weight: 10.8 Age: 5yrs 5mths 3wks

Story
Sebastian – The Playful Acrobat Don’t let the name fool you — Sebastian is a lovely little lady with a big personality! This beauty is one half of a bonded pair of sisters who are truly inseparable. The more adventurous of the two, Sebastian loves wand toys, zoomies, and showing off her impressive leaps when she’s in full play mode. Between bursts of energy, she’s all about cozy naps and quiet companionship. Sebastian’s confidence helps her sister, Ursula, feel at ease, and they share an unbreakable bond. From sharing meals to curling up for naps, these two do everything side by side. Because they’re such a close-knit pair, Sebastian and Ursula must be adopted together — and whoever welcomes them home will be rewarded with double the love, purrs, and personality. Sebastian (and her sister Ursula) would do best in a calm home with adults or older children. They can be a bit nervous around toddlers who move quickly, and they’ll truly shine in a gentle, patient environment. Must adopt with Ursula.

Good with kids, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Pippy is an incredibly affectionate cat who loves pets and back rubs. When she gets pet, she will arch her back like a professional contortionist and purr for as long as you pet her. She may even jump into your lap and kiss your nose. The only things Pippy doesn't like are being picked up and having her feet touched. At the same time, she can be very shy and jumpy, but warms up to people very quickly, especially if you have food. Pippy would do best in a quiet home with no other pets and older children only. She can't wait to meet you!

Story
Aurora is a gentle cat who is a little timid and shy of those she has just met. However, she warms up quickly, happily accepting attention. Her foster home is busy, so she is used to being around people and noise. Aurora loves tummy rubs. While on your lap, she will make muffins and purr away. Her favourite time to cuddle is just after dinner. She enjoys playing with all toys and especially likes to play with her brother, Atlas. Once tired out, the pair will cuddle up together. Like her brother, Aurora is used to traveling by car. Must adopt with Atlas.

Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Singer is a big boy with a big personality. Although his chronically fierce facial expression might make him look mean, he is very friendly and loves people. He will demand pets when you come home from work and snuggle against you in bed the whole night long. In the evenings, he will give you big side swipes to ask permission to settle into your lap. In the mornings, he’ll ask you to hold your hands out so he can nuzzle them. This guy is a warm, fuzzy cuddle monster who needs lots of attention. Despite his sweet and loveable core, Singer can be a bit of a rascal. Growing up and surviving on the streets has made him very willful and assertive. He needs active play every day to get his energy out. He has a habit of playing aggressively with people, sometimes jumping up at legs and hands. Although we have come a long way in reducing this undesirable behaviour, Singer wouldn't be suitable for a home with children or other animals. He needs a person with lots of cat experience who can give him positive reinforcement, strong boundaries, and unconditional forgiveness and love.

Good with kids, Not good with dogs, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Wynn is a young sweetheart with soulful eyes and a heart full of love - once you earn his trust! When he first arrived, Wynn was shy and cautious, preferring to watch from a distance. But with patience, routine, and Churu magic, he’s blossomed into a goofy, affectionate boy. He now greets you with sweet meows, follows you from room to room, and flops dramatically at your feet for pets. Unlike most cats, Wynn isn’t food-motivated; he’d rather get attention from you than a treat! Though quiet at first, he’ll warm up with meows and gentle paw taps to ask you to stay close. He loves sunny lounging spots, making biscuits, chin scratches, and headbutts. When the mood strikes, he shows off his zoomies in playful bursts. Wynn would thrive in a calm, predictable home without young children, as he’s sensitive to loud noises and sudden changes. We haven’t seen Wynn with another cat, but he might be good with a slow introduction to a friendly, playful resident cat who likes other cats. If you’re looking for a loyal, funny companion who will reward your patience with deep affection and hilarious flops, Wynn might just be your purr-fect match!
