For Adopt a Pet and the PEDIGREE® brand, October is all about finding homes for dogs in shelters. Adopt this month for a PEDIGREE® Wet Food Pouch and a chance to win a Homecoming-style photo shoot and shelter donation.
Ms Milky Way is a tiny and gentle, but often times fearful, girl. She loves other cats and will flop over to greet them.
She still is working on approaching people, but she does allow herself to be pet and handled gently.
She had a rough start to life, but she really is just a baby.
She adores pets and scratches, even though she still is confused by them, and has yet to learn she can also ask for them. She hasn't made up her mind about her feelings on forehead kisses, but she will accept them (reluctantly).
She is so soft.
Ms Milky was brought in as a stray with her litter of kittens to be spayed. She was intended to be released back to her colony but her sweet (but shy) personality made staff think she could be an indoor cat.
She is a sweet girl, but given she has spent the first year of her life as a stray she is still learning that people can be trusted.
Note from Milky Way's foster family:
She is trustful enough to be pet and to eat out of our hands if you approach her, but she will need time to learn that she can also come to us to ask for those things.

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!
