Hello! I'm Snowball,Male - neuteredPersian x DLH mixAdultI might take a little time to warm up to you though once I feel safe, I'm what you might call a "stage 5 clinger," but in the best way possible! My super squishy personality means I'm always ready to shower you with affection. I love to be all over my human companions, bringing joy and warmth wherever I go.One of my favourite things to do is spend time with children. Their playful energy and gentle cuddles are right up my alley. However, I must admit that I'm not a fan of other animals. I prefer to be the sole star of the show, so I would thrive best as an only pet in a quieter home.Snuggling is my absolute favourite pastime. I'm a proud lap cat and love to curl up with you for a cozy nap. While I adore being close, I'm not too fond of being picked up, so I hope you'll understand my preference for snuggles at ground level.If you're looking for a loyal companion who will fill your home with love and companionship, I might just be the kitty you've been waiting for.

When Jewel’s owner passed away, a friend of Jewel’s owner took her in. In the few weeks the friend had her, Jewel wasn’t using the litter box, so the friend brought her to Hamilton Animal Services. The friend did not give much information about Jewel, other than she was 11 years old and spayed. We wanted to give this sweet, purry persian a chance, so we took her into our care and she went straight to the vet for a health check, and much needed dental surgery. Blood and urine tests came back normal, but xrays showed that Jewel was suffering from arthritis. This was likely the cause of her litter box issues. She was started on pain medication to help her feel more comfortable. It was also noted that Jewel has a slight head tilt and a bit of a wobble when she walks. It doesn’t seem to trouble her, but she was put on medication to see if it would help. Jewel has been using her litter box perfectly since she came into our care. Her foster family provided her with a litter box made from a rubbermaid bin with the front wall cut down so she can walk right in. That, and the injectable pain meds for her arthritis seem to have done the trick! Jewel’s forever home should speak to their vet about continuing the injectable medication for arthritis so she can continue to live pain free. Though Jewel is less wobbly on her feet now, she still has moderate balance issues and doesn’t like to be up off the ground. To keep her safe, she’ll need a home where there are not a lot of stairs. Keeping her food and water on the floor as opposed to on a table would be best for her. A tray under her food helps to keep things a bit cleaner, as she can be a messy eater. She has a bowl of dry food to graze on whenever she likes, and she gets canned food every morning that she devours. She really likes canned food! A small ulcer on Jewel’s lip was biopsied, and it turned out to be an eosinophilic granuloma. The exact cause of EG is unknown, but research suggests that it is a form of allergic response. We don’t know what caused Jewel’s case, but the ulcer is now gone and she hasn’t had any reoccurrence. Jewel is a sweetheart of a cat. She loves to be petted and has a very happy purr. If you aren’t petting her enough, she will reach out and tap you to remind you. It’s the cutest thing! She isn’t thrilled about being picked up, and she prefers to sit beside you for pets as opposed to on your lap. She can be vocal when she wants attention. She likes to play with her mouse toy and will chase the string on a wand toy. She has a couple of favourite beds that her foster family would be happy to pass along to her new home – as well as her modified litter box. She is currently using Fresh 4 Life Pellet litter. Though she does like to be brushed, Jewel’s fur can quickly become matted and tangled, so hew new people will need to keep up with frequent brushing, and professional grooming when required. Other cats are not Jewel’s thing, so a home without them would be best. She has not been around dogs since coming into our care, so we don’t know how she would be with them. A quiet home where she can live out her days in peace and where she can get lots of pets would be ideal. Please adopt Jewel! Visit ladybirdanimalsanctuary.com to apply

Jimmy is a handsome, black, long-haired boy. He is the other half of the Riff/Jimmy duo. Jimmy’s backstory is that both he and Riff were living outside of a colony in the north of Toronto and had been fed by a caring member of the public for their entire life. Their feeder was leaving Toronto and needed to be retrieved from their colony, as there was no replacement feeder for them to turn to.Jimmy is the more outgoing of the twosome; his morning routine is to approach his human while they are lying in bed so that he can have his head and back scratched, enticing them to get out of bed so that he can get breakfast. Like Riff, they both dislike being picked up. He and Riff will play with the other cats in their foster home, running back and forth playing a game of chase.Jimmy has idiopathic epilepsy, which means that he sometimes has seizures that have no identifiable cause. He has been evaluated by a neurologist and does not currently require medication to manage his condition, but he may in the future. Potential adopters will need to take Jimmy in for annual rechecks with a neurologist to monitor his condition. Jimmy has also had a surgery called an FHO (femoral head ostectomy). After his neurological episode, he was limping on his left back leg and was seen by a vet, where x-rays were performed. The X-rays showed advanced femoral head necrosis. Since the surgery, he is no longer limping and has a full range of motion in his back leg. Jimmy is neutered, vaccinated, dewormed and microchipped. He is FIV & feline leukemia negative. He has also had his teeth cleaned at the end of September 2024.Jimmy is meal-fed twice a day; he is accustomed to this method of feeding and will eat his entire meal when it is offered. He is larger than his brother Riff, but still has a healthy body weight. He says he looks bigger because of all the fluff. Jimmy is an adorable and lovely guy, and he loves his brother Riff greatly. They will make a great addition to a patient adopter and, with time, will learn to trust and bond with their human even more so.

Introducing Her Royal Highness, the Grand Duchess Anastasia. This fluffy former colony-cat reigns supreme over her indoor kingdom, spending countless hours sleeping or lounging while binge-watching `Bird TV` from her throne (the couch).While her subjects may long for a royal snuggle, Anastasia prefers to keep her distance - with an aversion to physical contact that would make even the most aloof monarch proud. While she does not bite, Anastasia does regularly hiss and may swat at you out of fear if she is startled upon approach. But her hisses serve as a reminder of her boundaries, telling all who dare to encroach upon her sovereignty that she is not to be trifled with. We admire a lady who speaks her mind.When not busy issuing decrees, Anastasia engages in charitable work, and is a patron of the bread bank - kneading away on her favourite sweater. She also enjoys climbing her cat tower to gaze upon her kingdom and royal subjects. In the middle of the night, Anastasia emerges from her royal chambers to chase balls and spring toys. She also finds joy in the humble cardboard scratcher, a simple scratching post, and cat dancers.Anastasia seeks an experienced adopter of royal caliber - one who appreciates her independent spirit and respects her boundaries. While she may not grant the gift of pets or cuddles, her willingness to share her space speaks volumes of her generous spirit. She will require much patience and understanding as she acclimates to her new domain and in time will grace her chosen companion with the privilege of her presence, basking in their company from a distance. For those with the wisdom to accept her on her own terms, Anastasia promises a companionship as unique and cherished as the crown jewels themselves.Anastasia has grown accustomed to the company of her foster sister, Hazel, and would be best adopted out to a home together.Anastasia has a history of mild tartar and may need future dental cleanings. She is negative for FIV and FeLV. Like all ACR cats, Anastasia is up-to-date on vaccines and has been treated for fleas and parasites.

Miss Bellum is a former feral cat who was rescued from the outdoors along with her kittens, who were just a few weeks old at the time. Initially, she was extremely fearful and defensive, often hissing or swatting when she felt threatened. But after months of dedicated socialization and lots of Churu tube treats (her absolute favorite!), she has made incredible progress and has officially transformed from a meanie panini to a cute patootie! She is happy being indoors and has learned to enjoy the company of humans.Miss Bellum is still very shy, but she has “safe zones” where she feels comfortable and secure, such as her window hammock or the hut in her cat tower. In these areas, she allows gentle pets and happily interacts with her humans without feeling the urge to run away and will sometimes reward her human with soft, quiet purrs. She is independent and prefers to approach people on her own terms. She does not like being held or picked up but she does enjoy affection when she feels safe.After her kittens were adopted, Miss Bellum had the chance to meet and live alongside several other foster kittens who she graciously shared her space with. She learned a great deal from them, becoming more curious, confident, and willing to interact with humans. She has formed a particularly sweet bond with a kitten named BMO, who encourages her bravery and companionship. Miss Bellum would likely do best in a home with a friendly, patient cat who can show her the ropes, or she could also be adopted alongside BMO. Miss Bellum will need a very patient adopter who can continue to help her feel comfortable indoors and allow her the time and love to come out of her shell. With the right environment, she will continue to blossom, showing her humans gentle affection and quiet, sweet companionship.Miss Bellum is negative for FIV and FeLV. She had a recent dental that involved removing a broken tooth. Like all ACR cats, Miss Bellum is up-to-date on vaccines and has been treated for fleas and parasites.
