Story
Bellatrix started off wary of humansjust making eye contact could earn you a hiss. But one day, everything changed. She realized the indoor cat life was pure luxury, and now she struts around like she owns the place (because, honestly, she does). These days, she yells at you for attention, follows you around like a shadow, and fully expects you to admire her while she plays, naps, or scales the furniture like a parkour pro. She plays rough and keeps up with her brothers with easeshes tough, athletic, and not afraid to launch off a wall mid-zoomie. Bellatrix is affectionate, confident, and very into her toys. While shes still unsure about dogs and tends to keep her distance with a few dramatic hisses, shes much more confident and curious around other cats. Shes been boldly checking out the resident adult cat and would likely do well with a feline companion after a proper introduction. Bellatrix is playful, bold, and a total queen now that shes embraced her inner house panther Please visit our website www.pawsaboverescue.ca to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs and cats.

Story
Molly is a petite young lady with a gentle soul. When you first meet her, she may be shyespecially if she's not in familiar surroundings. In new environments, she tends to be reserved and a bit fearful. However, once she realizes shes safe and begins receiving love and tasty treats, she quickly comes out of her shell.As she grows comfortable, youll hear her adorable voice and notice how easily she settles into her daily routine. She enjoys exploring her space and learns quickly. While she is quite independent and often prefers her own company, she still appreciates affection. She purrs softly when picked up and enjoys a little attention, though she's just as content lounging nearbyespecially on a cat tree by the window, where she can watch the world go by.Molly has a unique heart-shaped black marking on her side, a fitting symbol for a cat who will surely melt your heart with her quiet affection and sweet nature.She prefers to be the only cat in her future home, as she is not a fan of other felines. She is currently being fostered with a dog who doesnt bother herjust the way she likes it.Molly is currently being fostered in Aurora.   Please visit our website www.pawsaboverescue.ca to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available dogs and cats.

Story
George is pure orange cat energybold, busy, and always on the hunt for his next bit of mischief. Hes the kind of kitten who turns every corner of the house into his personal obstacle course, especially if something is left on a table that could be dramatically knocked to the floor. Hes also one half of the notorious Fred & George duo (yes, like the Weasley twins), and definitely lives up to the name. He zooms, pounces, climbs, and chirps his way through the day. George is very vocal and very food motivatedhell let you know what he wants and when he wants it. While he enjoys a cuddle now and then, it usually turns into playful bites and silly wrestling before long. George is curious about everything, including dogs and other cats. He approaches calm dogs with interest and has also shown curiosity toward the resident adult cat, trying to engage without being too pushy. Hes a hilarious, high-energy boy with a big personality and even bigger plansand hes always up for an adventure.

Story
Introducing Milo!  Male     DOB: Oct 20,2022 Milo was surrendered to Saint Cat Rescue when his owner advised they had developed severe allergies. When Milo first came to us, he was heartbroken, scared, and angry. He did not want to be touched and avoided all human contact and even sometimes becoming aggressive when approached.  Thanks to the unconditional love and patience of his foster mom showed him, Milo learned to trust and love again and now active seeks attention.  Milo is a domestic short haired white tabby with cutest little tabby moustache, big bright amber eyes and the most adorable innocent little face who just wants to be loved! t fool you, he can play rough.  Milo would do best in an adult home with an experienced patient cat owner and no other animals as he can get over stimulated and play rough sometimes.  If you want to be the one to embrace Milo for who he is, show him some patience to let him come around on his terms and gain a lifelong companion, please fill out an adoption application and contact us.     February 22, 2025, 3:22 pm

Story
DOB: Approx. 2016 Neville and his girlfriend Chenille were found as strays and are now looking for a forever family. Both cats are extremely loving towards people and to one another. Neville is a super gregarious guy and always likes to be in your company. He adores having pats, and he’ll strategically position his head under your hand so you can provide him with the primo petting session.  He is also very partial to head and chin scratches and rubs. Playtime is a big part of Neville’s day. He will case after a laser beam with great enthusiasm and is always happily entertained with toy mice. When Neville was first rescued, he was diagnosed with urinary crystals. The issue was treated and he had a complete recovery, but he should remain on urinary food to maintain his good health.  Neville must be adopted with his sweetheart Chenille. They are very bonded and are often seen grooming one another – so sweet! The pair will bring lots of cat love to your family. Adoption applications are available at http://www.forgottenones.ca/adoptions/. Please email the completed form to contact@forgottenones.ca.

Story
DOB: 03-17-2024 Sweet Clover is a good natured, lovely cat who delights in being with people. Her tortoiseshell coat is gorgeous - primarily brown/black with orange undertones – and she has pretty, gold-coloured eyes. Just being in the company of people makes Clover happy, and she constantly follows her foster mom around. She will give a gentle tap with her paw when she wants some pampering, and she relishes receiving pets on the top of her head and scratches behind her ears. Clover's favorite pastime is play, and she has so much fun chasing after wand toys. She also has other interests, such as, exploring her surroundings or gazing out the window. She is definitely a foodie and will consume her own meal with gusto, but also has great interest in whatever you are eating. Clover will be happiest with a family that can give her the human interaction she craves. She is comfortable with older children and is great with other cats. She has a typical Tortitude personality, and she prefers to indicate when she would like petting and when she’s had enough, so she would not be suitable for young children. She will need time to feel comfortable in her new home, but once she feels secure, she will be a great cat companion. She will win your heart by chatting with you, accompanying you as you move about the house, curling up on your lap, or contently sleeping beside you in bed. Clover would be a great companion for a similar-aged, friendly cat.Adoption applications are available at http://www.forgottenones.ca/adoptions/.
