Story
Meet Tetra, a spirited feline with a zest for life. Once a feral cat, she’s gradually learned the joys of domesticity, though she still retains a bit of her wild heart. Tetra loves to play, and you`ll often find her tapping at the bars for attention when she`s in the mood for some fun. She has made great strides in learning to trust, though it can take a little while for her to warm up to new people. Her trust is hard-earned but once she feels comfortable, it’s a gift she offers with great care.Personality:Affection Level: Tetra is learning to accept affection, but it’s still a work in progress. She’s starting to enjoy attention, though she may need time before she fully relaxes.Energy Level: High energy; loves to play and interact, especially when it comes to her favorite toys.Likes: Lickable treats (a surefire way to win her over!), playtime, and the company of people she trusts.Dislikes: Tetra can be wary of new people and situations, and may need time to adjust. She’s not quite ready to fully enjoy being held or cuddled just yet.Perfect Home: Tetra would do best in a home with a patient, understanding adopter who is willing to give her time and space to build trust. She may not be the most affectionate at first, but she’s on her way to becoming a loyal companion.Behavior with Kids: Tetra would likely do best in a home without young children, as she still needs time to feel completely comfortable. Older children who are gentle and patient may be okay, but any interactions should be calm and respectful.Behavior with Other Pets: Tetra is still adjusting to her social environment, so she may need a slow and proper introduction to other pets, she seems to like the company of other cats.Ideal Home:Tetra would do best in a quiet, patient home with someone who understands that building trust takes time.

Story
Meet Socket! Socket is part of a large group of cats called ‘the electricians.’ The electricians came from a tough living situation and have been waiting patiently for their chance to find furever homes. They can be very shy and reserved with new people but are very sweet cats once they trust you. They will need patience and understanding while they adjust to their furever homes. Due to their past, the electricians MUST be adopted to homes as pairs OR to a home with another outgoing feline friend. The electricians must remain on a probiotic for life and rely heavily on wet food. Staff is more than happy to talk with potential adopters about their medical needs as well as go into more detail about their past during a meet and greet. Socket is an affectionate girl who loves to snuggle and play with her feline friends. One of her favourite toys is her cat kibble, she will take it out of the bowl and chase it around the room. She also loves tunnels and a good cardboard box!
