Tabby kittens & cats in Hamilton, Ontario

Cassandra is a lovely grey tabby who was living outside in Northern Ontario with various other relatives, until one day she walked into someone's enclosed porch and made friends. After a long day of travel, she arrived at an AbbeyCats foster home incredibly scared. However, after a couple of days of decompression, Cassandra has opened up and showed us how much she likes to be inside with people's attention. Cassandra loves to lie on the window sill and watch the bug, birds, and plants. While she is still scared of other noises, she doesn't hide anymore when we walk into her room. She greets us with a meow and begins to purr, rubbing up on our legs and asking for pets. She also loves to be brushed! Cassandra would likely do best in a quiet and calm home with adults and perhaps older teens who will give her the time to feel safe and secure. They will be rewarded by her sweet eyes and enthusiastic purrs. DOB: January 1, 2025

Soot is an adventurous little guy with a curious spirit and just the right amount of mischief. He's always on the move, making sure he doesn't miss out on anything happening around him. As the least fluffy of the trio, he may have a sleeker coat, but his personality is larger than life! Climbing is one of Soot's favorite hobbies. Chairs, furniture, tabletops—if there's a higher vantage point to explore, he'll find it. He's also convinced that every glass left unattended is meant for him, so don't be surprised if you catch him trying to sample everyone's drink! When it's mealtime, Soot is the first to come running the moment he hears it's time for wet food. He approaches life with enthusiasm, whether it's dinner, playtime, or his next adventure. Even with all that energy, Soot has a wonderfully affectionate side. He loves curling up beside his people, purring loud enough for everyone to hear. He's happiest snuggled close, though if you try to hold him in your lap, he'll politely hop down and settle right back beside you instead. It's his perfect balance of independence and companionship. When he's not exploring, you'll often find him playing with his sister, Salem—they're the best of friends. Soot has been raised in a busy foster home with his siblings, Salem and Smudge, alongside four children ranging in age from 5 to 14. He's been held, cuddled, carried under an arm during full-speed laps around the house, and included in endless adventures inside play tents, cardboard boxes, and imaginative spaceships built from everyday household items. He's also grown up with three dogs and is comfortable around them, happily playing if they show interest while always being respectful of their space. Very little rattles this confident little kitten. He has been exposed to all the excitement of a busy household and has developed into a friendly, adaptable companion. With his playful curiosity, affectionate nature, and fearless confidence, Soot will thrive in just about any home. Whether he's exploring every corner of the house, racing to dinner, or purring beside you after a busy day, Soot is sure to bring laughter, companionship, and plenty of personality to his forever family.

Meet Starfish — a beautiful 3-year-old grey tabby and white lady with a gentle spirit and a thoughtful, observant nature. Starfish is on the shy side and prefers to take her time getting comfortable in new spaces, often choosing a cozy hiding spot where she can quietly watch the world go by. Once she feels safe, Starfish will start to show her sweet side. She’s happy to come out for calm company and enjoys gentle, respectful pets from people she trusts. Those quiet moments of connection are where she truly shines — soft, subtle, and sincere. Starfish is not yet comfortable with being handled extensively, and she can find medical procedures stressful. She’ll need a patient home that understands this and is willing to give her the time and space she needs to build trust at her own pace, without pressure or expectation. With kindness, consistency, and respect for her boundaries, Starfish has every chance to blossom into a deeply rewarding companion. She’s looking for a calm, understanding home where she can feel safe enough to slowly come out of her shell and be loved exactly as she is.
