My story

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

Microchipped, DOB November 16, 2018

Chai is a very affectionate, playful, and curious cat. She loves to cuddle and hang out with her humans while they work from home.

She gets along with other household pets but her foster mom recommends that she be adopted by a family that has calm, non-reactive dogs (and her foster parent does believe that Chai would benefit from having at least one other pet in her forever home for company, as she is very social). However, she will fight for dominance with other cats similar in age, and ideally she should go to a home without any other cats.

Chai is a spicy one! It will take her several days to adjust to her new home; she will be on high alert and may react to swift hand movements by biting; and even when relaxed, if she wants you to stop petting her she will give you a few nips on the hand, so her foster mom does not recommend that she go to a home with young children (Chai has tried Feliway and it seems to help calm her, but she is still nipping at hands).

She enjoys being with her humans so much that she will become vocal if they are standing for too long, because she needs to settle in on a warm lap!

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!
