My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Ginette a passé plus de 10 ans dans l'errance dans Hochelaga avant que quelqu'un lui vienne en aide. Elle a fini par trouver une bonne personne qui a le bien-être des chats à coeur et qui l'a amenée au Réseau Secours Animal en février 2024. Malheureusement, Ginette est porteuse du virus de l'immunodéficience féline (VIF). Pour plus d'information sur le VIF:  https://www.veterinairesaucanada.net/ressources-associees/virus-de-l-immunodeficience-feline-fiv/  Malgré cela, elle peut vivre une belle et longue vie dans une maison! Ginette a pris du temps pour s'adapter à la vie d'intérieur et à être heureuse avec des humains, mais maintenant elle adore les câlins! Elle se laisse bien caresser et ronronne. Elle n'est pas une chatte bien active à son âge, mais elle aime se prélasser dans de petits lits douillets et se faire bronzer au soleil. Elle cohabite bien avec les autres chats du refuge et pourrait vivre avec des enfants s'ils sont assez grands pour respecter son caractère. Ginette est gourmande et adorable. Qui aura la chance d'offrir un bon foyer à cette belle chatte sénior? Ginette est un chat sénior donc les frais d'adoption pour elle sont de 175$. Elle est stérilisée, vaccinée et  micropucée. Elle est positive pour  le virus de l'immunodéficience féline (VIF), mais négative pour la leucose féline (FeLV). Des assurances santé de 6 semaines viennent avec son adoption. Vous pourrez avoir recours à l'aide de l'équipe des adoptions aussi longtemps que vous en aurez besoin. Vous avez aussi droit, dans le premier mois suivant l'adoption, à une consultation vidéo de 30 minutes gratuite avec notre consultante en comportement félin FelineGood ( https://www.felinegood.ca ).     

 

Afin d'avoir une chance de l'adopter, veuillez remplir notre formulaire d'adoption directement sur notre site web:  https://www.reseausecoursanimal.org/nous-contacter/formulaire-adoption/  

 

 

Ginette spent over 10 years wandering in Hochelaga before someone came to her aid. She finally found a good person who cared about the welfare of cats and brought her to the Animal Rescue Network in February 2024. Ginette carries the feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV). For more information about FIV: https://www.vet.cornell.edu/departments-centers-and-institutes/cornell-feline-health-center/health-information/feline-health-topics/feline-immunodeficiency-virus-fiv    Despite this, she can live a long and happy life in a home! Ginette took some time to adapt to indoor life and to being happy with humans, but now she loves cuddles! She lets herself be petted and purrs. She's not a very active cat at her age, but she loves lounging in cosy beds and sunbathing. She cohabits well with the other cats at the shelter and could live with children if they're old enough to respect her character. Ginette is greedy and adorable. Who will be lucky enough to offer this beautiful senior cat a good home?  Ginette is a senior cat so the adoption fees for her are $175. She is sterilized, vaccinated and microchipped. She is positive for the feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) but negative for the feline leukaemia virus (FeLV). Health insurances are offered for the first 6 weeks following adoption. You will also have access to the help of the adoption team as long as you need it. You will also have access, for the first month following adoption, to a 30 minutes video consultation with our cat behaviour consultant FelineGood ( https://www.felinegood.ca ).

 

In order to get a chance to adopt her, please fill out our adoption directly on our website:  https://www.reseausecoursanimal.org/contacts/adoption-form/

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

All new adoption homes are carefully screened to determine if they are suitable. There is an adoption fee that includes the sterilization, initial vaccination of every animal, testing for FIV and FeLV of all cats at the shelter, and a 21 days trial period. A contract is always signed between the ARN and the adopter for their protection. A follow-up by an ARN adoption coordinator is often done either by telephone or by visit, and we also offer help/cousel for the life of the cat.

Go meet their pets

We hold weekly adoption clinics at pet supply stores throughout the Montreal area, and the South Shore to find permanent homes for our cats and dogs.
We'd love to meet you at our next adoption clinic!
