My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Microchipped, DOB May 6, 2024

Hi, my name is Tom Nook! I can be shy when I first meet you, but I am very snuggly and love being petted. My favourite toy is the ball track and sometimes I play with it so much that I fall asleep in the middle of it. I am a bit skittish and wary of anyone coming towards me too rapidly, but once you start petting me I will start purring immediately and even roll over for belly rubs. I am not a fan of being picked up, but I will give you a kiss if you ask for it!

You'll need to keep an eye on your popcorn and potato chips, because I love them and I’ll just go into the bags and help myself!

I first came to my foster home after receiving surgery for a broken leg. It has healed perfectly, and I can run full speed and have no issues jumping up to my favourite spot on the top of the cat tree. Any potential adopters should know, however, that as with any animal with a previous orthopaedic issue, I am more likely to get arthritis when I get older.

My foster home is full of cats and I get along really well with other kittens my age. I have a lot of energy, so it would be best for me to go to a home with another young cat for me to play with (I love to chase and wrestle with them, which might be too much for older cats). There is also a big dog at my foster home and we get along fine, but we don’t interact with each other a lot.

I love to nap on fuzzy blankets, especially in a nice sunny spot, and at night I like to sleep on your legs or snuggle with you.

Additional adoption info

Adoption fee is $200 per adult cat, and $250 for kittens (under 8 months old).

This ensures that the cats that come into our care receive the attention they need, are spayed or neutered, and receive a rabies vaccination at the appropriate age. For City of Toronto residents, the adoption fee includes a mandatory City of Toronto cat license that is valid for one year. As you can imagine, these fees only begin to cover our costs; donations and ongoing fundraising efforts carry us the rest of the way!

Note:
-Senior cats (8 years or older) have an adoption fee of the adopter's choice, vs. our standard adult adoption fee of $200.
-Our adoption fee for an adult bonded pair (8 months or older) is $150 per cat vs. $200 per cat. Thanks for giving two loving friends a home together!
