Adopt-A-Friend-Friday

So normally for my Adopt-A-Friend Friday's I go through the profiles of different kitties and pick a couple that seem in the most need of a little signal boost. This week is going to be a little bit different because I've actually gotten a chance to meet this week's kitty at an Adopt-A-Thon I volunteered for. 

So without further ado, please meet Simon. 

Those eyes! When I first met Simon he was a little bit shy, mostly because of the busy Adopt-A-Thon environment but it didn't take him long to figure out humans= love! If he doesn't make you swoon over those big green eyes, his absolute love for cuddles will. In the 15 minutes I sat beside him he did all kinds of kitty yoga poses trying to prompt me for more scratches and with a face like that how can you say no? 

Simon's a one and a half year old cuddle monster who definitely needs a home with extra love to give out. Words cannot describe the amount that I just wanted to bundle him up in my coat and take him away with me to my house! 

Some things to know about Simon? He's looking for an experienced cat family and although he's great with other cats, a calmer kitty friend would make Simon the most happy. Simon would do best in a home with older children as although he's a gentle giant he likes to tell you what he wants when he wants it! 

Does your home sound like the home for Simon? If it does please contact Toronto Cat Rescue to arrange a meeting with Simon! 

The next two on the docket for today are a pair of brothers that I also got to meet through the Adopt-A-Thon I volunteered at and let me tell you they are amazing. When they weren't striking super adorable poses trying to entice adopters they were asking for some love! 

These two brothers are Billy and Dean.

Billy

Dean

We kept referring to these guys as the bookends because they looked so alike and they were never far from each other! 

These young boys are playful, rambunctious and seriously in love with people. They won't hesitate to climb in your lap and spend a good amount of time getting comfy before falling asleep. The best part about these guys? They're not cheap with the purrs! A good head scratch earns you as much purring as you can handle. These two deserve an amazing loving home with a ton of love and fun to make these guys happy. 

Although these guys aren't a bonded pair I would love to see them go out together because there is no doubt they adore each other. They spent the entire day cuddled up with each other when they weren't meowing or sticking their paws through the cage for cuddles! 

Do you have enough room and love for these two amazing boys? If you do please contact Toronto Cat Rescue for information on how to bring these guys home! 

All of these boys are currently located at the Pet Valu on the Kingsway. 

Adopt-A-Friend Friday

I realize that I missed last week's adopt-a-friend day, not the greatest way to start this off! Today I will be featuring two feline friends who are looking for a home!

First up is Indie!

Indie is a 5 year old, female, domestic short hair. She'll melt your heart with her sweet little chirps and cute baby face. Indie loves back scratches but isn't the biggest fan of being picked up, she makes up for it with her love of scratches and being brushed. This girl is a percher and loves to take in her surroundings.

What makes Indie special? She's bonded with another cat, Saba. 

These two girls are a bonded pair, which are often times harder to place into homes. If you're able to open your home and heart to these two lovely ladies please contact Toronto Cat Rescue. 

Up next is a gorgeous two year old, male, domestic longhair named Dodger.

Don't let his serious face fool you, this boy is a giant teddy bear. This big boy would love nothing more than a forever home where he can get all the lap time he craves. Dodger needs a forever home where he is the only cat as he doesn't get along well with other male cats. 

This boy had a rough start, he was found abandoned outdoors and picked up by a nice person before being brought to Toronto Cat Rescue to find his forever home. 

What makes Dodger special? Dodger is FIV positive. Cats that are FIV positive do live normal healthy lives, but to make sure of that Dodger needs a life with a healthy diet and little stress.

If you have room in your home for this giant cuddle bug please contact Toronto Cat Resue

Adopt-A-Friend Friday!

I recently started volunteering for the Toronto Cat Rescue (sound familiar? That happens to be where this little stinker comes from).

We've always had cats growing up, so after months of debating I finally decided that I was going to adopt this 4-legged friend and bring him home. I hmm'd and ha'd over the right cat and after a few options Bowyn (previously Mitchell) was brought to me as an option. I went to go meet this little man and it was love at first sight.

If you need to ask, he's the one flat out on his back looking up at me. I couldn't help it. I was hooked.

A ton of animals (like Bowyn) need homes and I figured the best way to start this off is with the old ones. Senior pets are barely ever adopted, and senior pets always have a special place in my heart.


I'll stop blathering and start introducing:

 

Meet Mickey! He's an adorable 10 year old boy who is neutered, vaccinated and declawed. He's not a super cuddler but he is happy just to be around people and loves sleeping under blankets when nobody is around. He is micro-chipped and was rescued from a high-kill shelter.

 

Mick is a special old gent, as it was discovered he has kidney damage. He is on a special food and subcutaneous fluids twice a week, but please don't let that stop you. He's looking for a home that will provide him with an abundance of love and allow him to continue protecting you from laser toys - he's had a few years to practice.

 

 

In lieu of Toronto Cat Rescue's adoption fee a donation is appreciate to bring this man home.
