My personality

My story

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

Presenting - MITTENS!

Mittens is confident and playful and active. She grew up without siblings so is very independent.

Four orphans joined her at 9 weeks of age and she really enjoys their company, but is still learning how to be a big sister.

Her mama was a very young and cautious mom and Mittens picked up a bit of this behaviour. Loud noises make her run and hide on occasion and she is still learning to enjoy being picked up.

She is not a cuddly kitten - she is too busy for that! She is quiet and curious and she loves to play with the wand toy and chase any anything that moves, She is quite a character! Her favourite thing is attacking the broom when you sweep, she just thinks that the best thing ever.

She would do best without young children only because they are loud and have quick movements and this makes her nervous.

ideally Mittens should be adopted into a home with another active and curious young kitty friend

Additional adoption info

Adoption involves an interview, a meeting and home visit (in person after Covid, currently virtual), vet references, and an adoption fee.
Our greatest concern is the animals that we care for, and matchmaking is what we do best..

Go meet their pets

Most of our cats and all of our dogs are cared for in foster homes. They are not available to meet until your application has been started, you have been interviewed and approved.

Some of our cats may be featured in the Global Pet Foods store located in Alliston, ON and in Shelburne, ON.
And we occasionally hold "meet and greet" events at PetValu, 184 Front St., Toronto, ON.

In those cases, the adoption process is the same and conducted by CompassionForPaws - NOT by the staff at the store. We never do adoptions directly from an event but applications may be tendered.

More about this rescue

We are a network of compassionate individuals that care for homeless paws, in foster homes throughout Southern Ontario, until they can find a new, permanent place to call their own.

Shelly Hawley-Yan has more than 20 years experience in rescue, and the team of Debbie Hunt, Vickie Janetos, Andrea Maenza and Dale Reilly add another several decades of combined rescue experience.

Our adoptable paws come from shelters where the animals may not have been coping with that environment, or may have been surrendered by people whose lives have changed,

All paws have been vet checked and are spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.
