My story

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

DOB: October 29th, 2021

Gwen is an easy-going and slightly sassy girl with a cute, fun personality. She is very sweet and affectionate, often circling you and nudging you for attention. She is also extremely social, enjoys company, and gets along with strangers. While she dislikes being held for too long, she is unbothered by crowds. She enjoys having people around her, and might even sit on the lap of a person she's meeting for the first time like it's her birthright. She can spend hours in someone’s lap when they work from home, but if that’s not available, she likes settling in by the window and looking outside. As much as she likes people, she does not get along with other cats at all.

Although she spends time by herself, she doesn't like to be left alone when she's in playmood. She's good at communicating her needs, whether she wants to eat, play, or just have company. Gwen gets the zoomies from time to time, and runs around chasing her toys through the house. She is very goofy: her legs are very discombobulated and every time she changes direction on the wooden floor, she slides!

Gwen has recovered from dental issues and has no teeth left. But this doesn’t seem to bother her at all! She is a picky eater. She likes pate but also likes dry food from time to time. She does not like any food in gravy or wet food that is in chunks. She currently eats wet food several times a day because she only eats small quantities at a time and dry food is left out for her to eat as she sees fit. Gwen sometimes uses the litter box standing up. So to prevent any messes, a high walled litter box is recommended.

Gwen needs a home that can offer her attention, a bit of space, and be patient with her. Just give her a little bit of time to adjust to a new home, after all, she has gone through a lot. She's going to be the perfect addition to your family.

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!
