My story

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

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

Hortense est une toute petite femelle de 1 an qui a été apportée au Réseau Secours Animal après avoir été secouru in extremis d'une euthanasie imminente avec son frère Haribo et ses copains Jujube et Hilda. Hortense est minuscule, c'est dur de croire qu'elle a plus d'un an! Elle était très craintive à son arrivée chez nous en septembre 2024, mais maintenant elle aime beaucoup les câlins! Il faut toujours y aller doucement puisqu'elle s'habitue encore à nous et à la vie à l'intérieur, mais elle vient chercher notre contact. Elle peut mordiller les doigts lorsqu'elle n'est pas à l'aise. Elle peut même essayer de nous grimper sur les épaules par curiosité! Elle est motivée par le jeu et la nourriture. Elle s'entend aussi bien avec les autres chats de sa pièce. Elle n'aime pas être prise dans les bras. Cette magnifique petite chatte mérite la meilleure famille possible! Hortense est un chat adulte, donc les frais d'adoption pour elle sont de 290$. Elle est stérilisée, vaccinée, micropucée et négative pour le virus de l'immunodéficience féline (VIF) ainsi que 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 nécessaire. Vous avez aussi droit à une consultation vidéo gratuite de 30 minutes pendant les 3 premiers mois suivant l'adoption 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/

 

 

Hortense is a tiny 1-year-old female who was brought to the Animal Rescue Network after being rescued in extremis from imminent euthanasia with her brother Haribo and her pals Jujube and Hilda. Hortense is so tiny, it's hard to believe she's over a year old! She was very shy when she came to live with us in September 2024, but now she loves cuddles! We always have to take it easy, as she's still getting used to us and to life indoors, but she's always looking for our touch. She may nibble our fingers when she's uncomfortable. She may even try to climb on our shoulders out of curiosity! She's motivated by play and food. She also gets on well with the other cats in her room. She doesn't like to be held. This beautiful little cat deserves the best possible family! Hortense is an adult cat, therefore the adoption fees for her are $290. She is sterilized, vaccinated, microchipped and negative for feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) and feline leukemia (FeLV). You will also be provided with health insurances for the first 6 weeks following adoption. You will also have access to the support of the adoption team for as long as you need it. You will also have access to a free 30 minutes video consultation during the first 3 months following the adoption 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!







At our last adoption clinic, we had 5 cats adopted!
