Story
Microchipped, DOB January 4, 2018 Lodian is a gentle and tender girl who absolutely loves being pet (chin/head/bum scratches)! She's a queen that knows what she wants and makes sure you know as well. She is vocal when she needs something, be it food or affection. Sweet Lodian shows her affection by migrating to whichever part of the house you're at and settling down near you, just wanting to spend some quality time. She’s not a super clingy cat and gives you your space. Lodian is also very calm while meeting new people and it’s easy to fall absolutely in love with her. Lodian is very entertaining to watch as every now and then, she will flip over (tummy-side up) to groom her majestic belly. If you look at her during this time, she would stop and look up at you completely startled as if you caught her getting up to no good! She's also the sweetest when she wakes up doing her little stretch and letting out cute meows. Lodian loves watching birds, playing with toys, and chasing the reflection of your phone on the wall on a sunny day (or a well lit room). Lodian is an overweight cat who is unable to groom her hind end. She needs to be wiped about 3 times a day (whenever she uses the litter box) with a damp paper towel. It usually takes ~15 seconds. However, she is well behaved during this time and doesn’t flinch once she knows you’re her caretaker. This little girl is full of surprises once she opens up to you and shows all her quirks, which usually takes some time. She's the sweetest gal and whoever is lucky enough to have her join their family will have a wonderful companion.

Story
DOB: October 14th, 2013 Holly is quite the character. She is very shy at first but then once she feels comfortable and secure, she has a strong, bold, determined personality and is not easily held back. She enjoys exploring and investigating the world around her, but then quietly goes back to her bed to reflect on her discoveries. An interesting trait is that instead of quiet little mews, she squawks ‘meh’ and makes little ducky noises as she walks from room to room. She has a loud purr you can easily hear. Holly is overweight and requires a weight control diet. She came into foster care at 28 lbs and has successfully lost 14 lbs on weight control food so continuing a weight control diet is vital. The weight loss has left Holly looking flabby around the middle. Despite being a bit flabby, Holly is a very active cat, and more agile than her bulky frame would suggest. She has been tightening her muscles with all the exercise she receives. She is amazingly quick going up and down stairs and runs fast in the hallway. She likes jumping up on chairs, makes herself comfortable on sofas and even takes over the computer chair, especially when her human intends to use it. You’ll end up sharing half a seat. Holly is very people oriented and just loves to hang around where her people are and be part of everything going on. She does not always like being picked up, but enjoys being patted - on her terms. She will let you know when she’s had enough. Holly enjoys interactive play with the feather wand and other toys, especially cat nip toys and of course, loves sitting in boxes!! She likes playing in the cat tree, and using cardboard scratchers which she shreds into so much confetti, with great satisfaction. She likes to jump up on the window sill to look at the birds and squirrels. Holly does not like other cats or dogs. She wants, and deserves, to be the center of attention so she should be the only pet. Holly is on a daily medication called Meloxicam. Holly should be on a weight control diet to continue her weight loss journey. The perfect home for Holly would be where she can be the center of attention, and be near to her people as much as possible. She craves being with her people. Her adopting family should be an affectionate, loving family, understanding Holly’s needs, with time to play and willingness to include her in day-to-day life. Thank you for welcoming a senior cat into your family - an adoption fee of your choice is appreciated, vs. our standard adult cat adoption fee of $200.

10 Years old Please note, this is a posting through the Courtesy Adoption Program. Please contact the current owner directly for more details. Their details are below. Pooper is a shy girl who needs a minute to warm up to her new person, but when she does, she will be on your lap expecting cuddles and scritches! She is missing her elderly mom who has dementia and had to move into a long term care home where pets are not allowed. She loves her comfy plush bed pushed up next to the warm radiator where she can take long naps with her favourite carrot toy. She would do best in a quiet home with no other pets or young children. She would love to be the focus of your attention after she's had some time to settle in. She LOVES her treats and Churu tubes are a favourite, so keep those on hand for bribes! As you can see from her photo, she's excellent at Zoom calls! Grey Poupon is participating in our Courtesy Adoption Posting Program and is not the property of Toronto Cat Rescue. Toronto Cat Rescue does not accept responsibility for any pet placements that result from this service. If you need more info or would like to adopt please contact Suzanne at ahomeforpooper@gmail.com or 416-738-7543. Thank you!

Story
Microchipped, DOB October 17, 2015 Mitch likes to sleep on cushions, old jackets, and clothing. He is a very observant cat and will sometimes just watch both humans and cats with such intensity and curiosity, as though he is a scientist studying them. Mitch is a very cautious cat. He requires some time in his new home before his trust in his human friends will develop. It took his foster parent nearly 6 weeks to get Mitch to trust them enough to pet him gently by his ears. He is best suited for environments that are not stressful - meaning no dogs (cats are ok) and no being chased by young children. He is also not a very adventurous cat and needs to be in a relaxed environment where he can have the freedom to become comfortable at his own pace. He would also be suitable for a working couple or single person as he is not very demanding of his humans' time. He prefers sitting and watching TV and looking out the window, but he will also have his bursts of energy and moments of playfulness. Thank you for welcoming a senior cat into your family - an adoption fee of your choice is appreciated, vs. our standard adult cat adoption fee of $200. Mitch has tested positive for FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus). FIV+ cats can live long happy lives with a good diet, low stress, indoor homes, loving families, and annual vet check-ins. They don't require medication and can live in a home with other non-FIV+ cats, as the virus is only passed to other cats by blood (i.e. deep bite marks) and can't be passed to dogs or humans. Please don't judge them based on a blood test!

Story
Microchipped, DOB October 18, 2017 FIV Positive Franklin is a shy cat. He needs time to open up and come out of his shell. Franklin loves cats and birds and he will spend time with other pets but he is still shy around people. Franklin was rescued from a hoarding situation and he seems to have to a hard time trusting people. Franklin is well suited for someone who would keep Franklin as the only pet in the house or with one other pet. Franklin requires love and time to shine so a busy house with many cats will be difficult. Franklin has tested positive for FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus). FIV+ cats can live long happy lives with a good diet, low stress, indoor homes, loving families, and annual vet check-ins. They don't require medication and can live in a home with other non-FIV+ cats, as the virus is only passed to other cats by blood (i.e. deep bite marks) and can't be passed to dogs or humans.

Story
DOB: November 20, 2018 Hi there. I'm Mystique! I am an adult tortoiseshell. Contrary to my name, I cannot shapeshift, nor do I have mutant powers. I would like to start off by saying that I am an extra-sweet cat. That's right, I'm diabetic! However, I do not let this get in the way of living my best life. I enjoy playing with all sorts of toys, my favourite being feathered toys on a wire stick. I also prefer to sit and nap close to my human, but I do enjoy my own personal space too from time-to-time. While I haven't yet shown any signs of being a lap cat with my foster dad, I do enjoy sitting close and sleeping in my cat bed next to my foster's bed and offering many slow blinks! I have lots of love to give. The rumours of 'tortietude' are really just that; rumours! I enjoy being brushed, however when I get into a sideways laying position, it is my way of saying that I am done for now. I am tolerable to being held, but not for too long. I have very good litter habits and eat and drink just fine. I can be very stressed at first when adjusting to a new environment, and just need a few days to decompress. I used to be skittish around new visitors coming into my home, but now I approach them with curiosity, and sometimes I give them kisses! I have been doing much better with visitors in my home. Mystique is a sweet, beautiful girl who has come a long way. She is currently diabetic and while in foster, she has yet to achieve remission. However, her glucose can managed well with two shots of insulin a day, every 12 hours. While in foster, Mystique's foster dad and TCR's health team have been able to determine how much insulin to administer depending on her current BG level. Mystique is strictly on wet food due to her diabetes, and she has no issues with eating. She has lost some weight while in foster care (possibly due to wet food diet but also a result of being diabetic), though fortunately her weight loss has begun to level off. Her weight should continue to be monitored often, along with her blood glucose levels. Mystique would do well in a quiet, single-pet home, as it is currently unknown whether she can do well with other cats or other pets in general. In any case, Mystique is best suited for anyone with experience in caring for diabetic cats, or anyone willing to learn. If there is one thing Mystique has taught her foster dad, it is that caring for and managing the blood sugar of an extra-sweet kitty is not as daunting as it seems! Are you the right home for the lovely Mystique?
