Story
Hey there. I`m Susie. I`m an avid catnip lover and advocate for personal space. Why don`t you come on over so I can tease you with my fancy footwork. I`ll need to rub against you for awhile before I let you actually touch me and even then I`ll back up and make you come to me as I meow and leg weave for attention. I guess you could say I`m a bit of a dancer but need to check your dance moves before I accept your invitation to the actual dance floor. I can promise you I am worth the very short wait, no more than a verse or two of whatever is playing. Just don`t hold me too close because I`m a bit uncomfortable being picked up. Oh and about my tail...don`t even think about touching it. Since little humans can`t seem to resist a swishing tail, I`m best suited to a home without young children and adults that can read and respect my body language!

Story
Hello, I`m Milo. I may seem a bit reserved at first, but give me a moment and you`ll see my sweet, mellow nature. I love quiet afternoons, cozying up in a comfortable spot, and sharing a peaceful moment with someone special. I`m not one for loud noises or sudden movements; I prefer a calm environment where I can relax and be myself. I have a lot of love to give, I just need the right person to share it with. If you`re looking for a gentle companion who will cherish your company, then I`m the cat for you.P.S. I must be the only kitty in the home, I do not like to share my space or my humans attention with any other felines! Come meet me at PetSmart Dougall starting October 15th!

Story
Hello my friend, you can call me Cali. I am a loving lady who is looking for a furever home. I am very confident once I`ve settled into my environment and love to explore my surroundings. I also love to be showered in love and especially adore having my neck and chin scratched for me. I`m interested in certain toys, more so the ones with catnip and can keep myself occupied while you`re away. Another one of my pastimes is simply lounging around and people watching. I am to share a home with experienced owners where everyone can read and understand my body language.

Story
Soooo, you`ve probably noticed I`m not a baby. I hope that doesn`t make a difference in things. I`ve been called Baby Blue all my life and it`s usually just shortened to Baby. I have no time or patience for dogs or young children so need a home without them. Other cats are questionable, sometimes I like them and other times no-way-Jose. Give me a little time to get used to my new digs and you just may find me on your lap, nudging you to start petting me. Waddya say...is your lap gonna be a good fit? You also may have noticed i`m considered a `special paws` adoption this means me adoption fee is up to you to choose!

Story
Hello there, I`m Tippy. I`m a friendly feline with a heart full of love to give. I enjoy the simple pleasures of life: a warm lap, a gentle stroke, and the company of my best friend, Toddy. We`re inseparable, you see. We are litter mates who have been together our whole lives and want to remain together in our new home. I`m a very friendly and affectionate cat. I love to be pet and scratched right under my chin. I have no interest in playing with any toys and would much rather lounge around and people watch. I like to keep all fours on the floors at all times to easily roam and explore. I`m not a fan of being held, so it is not recommended that I go home with younger children. To help us adjust to our new home and prevent any litter box issues, we must be started in a small space with access to food, water and litter box. I may not love other cats (except for Toddy), but I have met a dog at the cafe that has really rubbed off on me! Toddy and I are both Special Paws pets because we have heart murmurs with a potential need for medical care in the foreseeable future. This means out adoption fee is up to you! If you`re interested in adopting us sweet senior boys, submit an inquiry today! Come meet us at Yay for Strays Cat Café starting February 24th!

Story
Hello there, my name is Buttermilk. You may have read my bio before but I`m here again to tell you that I`ve made some great progress with the help of the best volunteers and staff around! You might remember that I can get overstimulated with too much affection, meanwhile I will still seek out love. I`ve learned to tolerate being pet more and being scratched gently on the top of my head. I haven`t mastered my communication skills just yet and still lean towards using my mouth on those weird paws you humans have, I don`t mean any harm and the moment my teeth touchdown I release just as fast. Today I even put my mouth gently over the hand that stopped petting me because I wanted more!! Apparently I`m not supposed to do that, so the petting didn`t resume until I tried my other tactic of rubbing my face along them and that seemed to work great! I still have some learning to do and am going to need a patient adopter with cat experience who can better understand my body language and give me love when I need it.I am not what you humans would call a “Beginner’s Cat.” I need someone in sync with my moods, who will appreciate my independent and okay, I’ll say it, my feisty personality. Children and other animals are not my cup of tea so I cannot go to a home with them. By the way, I am a Special Paws pet because I`m likely to have some chronic eye discharge, which means my adoption fee is up to you!See Buttermilk on Tiktok! https://tinyurl.com/v3e9u7k9
