Hi, I`m Blue, I`m a bit of a lone ranger, but I`ve got a mind that`s always turning, always curious. I`m a little shy at first, but give me time and I`ll show you my loyalty knows no bounds. My best mate Louie. He`s my sidekick, my confidant. We`ve seen each other through thick and thin. I`m a laid-back kind of cat, preferring quiet moments of contemplation over wild play. I`m looking for a forever home that respects my independence but also appreciates my loyal and mellow nature. Adopt me and you`ll have a friend for life.

Story
They call me Louie. I`m a smart, brave soul, though a tad shy. My independence may make you think I prefer solitude, but that`s not entirely true. My best friend, Blue, is the yin to my yang. We`re two peas in a pod, a duo like no other. We`ve seen a lot, experienced more, and yet, we remain steadfast, our spirits unbroken. I may be a senior, but my zest for life is that of a kitten`s. I`ve got wisdom, but also a feisty streak that keeps things interesting. Adopting me means you`re not just getting a pet, you`re getting a companion, a friend, a confidante. I promise to bring a spark of joy, a dash of mystery, and a whole lot of love into your life. So, why not take a chance on me? I promise you won`t regret it.

Hello, I`m Tilly! I may be a bit shy at first, but give me a little time and I`ll show you just how sweet and friendly I can be. I`m quite the cuddle bug once I get to know you. I love snuggling up on a cozy lap for a good petting session. My ideal home would be one where I`m the only cat. I`d love to have all your attention to myself. I`m not asking for much, just a quiet and loving home where I can feel safe and loved. Adopting me would mean you`d always have a friend by your side, ready to offer comfort and companionship. So, why not take a chance on me? Come meet me at PetSmart Dougall starting March 20th!

Story
UPDATE: Jack has come a long way! He`s still not a lap cat and he cherishes his independence, but after being given a larger space, he`s come out of his shell! He is still a `Working Whisker` but he is ok with some pets. He`s become a staff favourite for his independent nature and his curious heart.Hello, I`m Jack. I`m a bit on the shy side, but don`t let that deter you. You see, I`m what the humans here like to call `spicy` meaning I prefer to do my own thing and would rather chase mice than sit on laps. But I still need a place to call home, so what do you say? *All of our `working whiskers` cat are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, and vet checked. You are responsible for providing a safe and suitable living environment, food, water and veterinary care as required. Since he is a `Working Whiskers` pet, you get to choose your own adoption fee.
