Domestic Shorthair kittens & cats in Toronto, Ontario

(Repeat post from owner) Approx. 8 Years old Meet Pepper, my cute older cat searching for a new home filled with love and care. Initially, I thought she was around 8 years old, but due to recent vet visits, it turns out she’s an oldie. Pepper is an absolute sweetheart who craves attention and companionship, and I mean that wholeheartedly. While she may be shy at first, once she settles in and recognizes her new home, she'll focus on soaking up that one-on-one time. She's gentle, calm and very independent once she knows she's safe. She’s unknowingly extremely funny and has the best expressions to prove it and will constantly have you laughing because of her funny quirks.

Ariel is a very friendly, affectionate 3 year old, healthy neutered male cat. He needs a loving home in the country where he can go outside and hunt daily. He is not happy being an indoor cat. He needs some space to roam and play. He gets along well with dogs and other cats.

Stella and her 4 siblings were born in their foster mom's living room to a very feral but loving momma. They stayed with her until they were 8 weeks old and their mom was fixed and released outside (but never really left). Stella was the first one born and has always been an adventurous and independent girl. She does love cuddles and kisses but she really loves to play and explore. She would do best in a home with another young or playful cat and she does well with dogs too! Her adoption fee includes everything involved with getting her to you in Canada (vet certificates, rabies vaccine, airline fee, adoption fee and carrier).

Spaghetti and her brother Meatball were found abandoned by their mom, in a kind person's roof. Luckily they were able to secure them and get them to us for them to be taken care of as they were only a week old. They were bottle-fed and have grown up to be super sweet, playful kittens. They are bonded and would need to be adopted together. The adoption fee includes all costs related to getting them to you (vet certificates, carriers, airline fees, adoption fees & export permits).

Montgomery (Monty for short) is very curious, he follows his foster parents all over the house. He has started to enjoy pets and gentle brushing, and can be very silly, lying on his back with his feet in the air while playing with his toys or sleeping in that position. He has started sitting on the couch with his foster parents and has started embracing more and more gentle pets on his cheeks and back. He is still quite shy and nervous of loud sounds or sudden movements. He requires a patient and gentle adopter who is willing to spend time sitting with him, giving him treats, and letting him sniff their hand, he love to sniff a good elbow or hand to say hello. His foster parents spend a lot of time talking to him in a gentle voice, this has really helped his confidence. Monty spends most of his day grooming his bonded buddy Molloy. He LOVES temptation treats and will eat them out of our hands.Monty and Molloy grew up together in the same colony; they spend all their time together, sleeping, grooming, and wrestling with each other. They are a bonded pair and need to be adopted together!They will require a patient adopter who has experience with street cats, who understands that it will take some time to open up. They need someone who has space in their home to give them a quiet place to adjust to a new environment, it can take a little while for street cats to open up and feel safe. These boys also require an adopter who has experience getting street cats into a cat carrier, as they do not enjoy being picked up.As a senior cat, Montgomery requires yearly bloodwork to monitor his health. His next test is due in March 2024. Like all ACR cats, Montgomery has been treated for fleas and parasites.A little about Molloy:Molloy is very playful and silly. He loves being brushed as well as pets and chin scratches. He spends most of his day trying to get Monty to groom him and lick his head. He adorably lays on his back with his feet in the air waiting for Monty to come over and groom him.To see more of these two, check out their instagram page @montyandmolloyTo check out a video of Monty & Molloy loving each other`s company, follow this link: https://vimeo.com/908895139?share=copy

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.

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.

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?

LOCATED IN KITCHENER, ON DOB: 1 May 2020 DSH dilute torti Microchipped Hey there, I'm Amethyst. While I do enjoy my alone time and consider myself quite self-sufficient, please don't mistake my independence for disinterest. I'm a clever girl who knows when to ask for a helping paw, especially when there's a tempting toy just out of reach under the couch—catnip toys are my absolute favorite! I'm not the type to demand constant attention, but I do have a soft spot for a gentle head scratch every now and then. It may take some time for me to warm up to you—I can be a bit shy at first. But once I trust you, you'll have a loyal friend for life! Our bond will be slow and steady, but it'll be worth it, I promise. 🥰 I'm not really one to share—I like to think of myself as the queen of my domain! So, why should you adopt me? Because I offer a unique blend of independence and companionship that you won't find in every cat. Together, we'll rule our kingdom with grace and dignity. 🐾

Microchipped, DOB March 23, 2023 Baked Bean is a very sweet, friendly and playful cat. He still has kitten energy and loves exploring the house and playing with his cat toys. He loves people and is always by your side as you go about your day. His favourite napping spot is on your lap and his favourite thing is getting attention from his favourite humans. Baked Bean can sometime nip during play when he gets overexcited but he is already learning to have more control and has made incredible progress. He is a wonderful ball of energy and a great, friendly presence to have around the house and anyone would be lucky make him the latest addition to their family! Baked Bean has a genetic skin condition called Ehlers Danlos syndrome. This conditions causes his skin to be extra stretchy and sensitive to bites, licks and scratches. Because of this, Baked Bean has to be dressed in a onesie and fitted with a cone at all times - without these, he is in danger of hurting himself by breaking open his skin and creating wounds. There is unfortunately no cure but the condition can be managed with vigilance and the clothes/cone. It is also recommended that he live in a single pet household as another pet can accidentally hurt him during play and that any cat play dates be supervised closely. He is still extremely playful and does not mind wearing the cone and onesie! Thank you for welcoming a special needs cat into your family - an adoption fee of your choice is appreciated, vs. our standard adult cat adoption fee of $200.

Microchipped, DOB: Dec 28, 2017 Mookie embodies the essence of a true gentleman who prefers subtle interactions and peaceful coexistence with his humans. He exudes a calm and sophisticated vibe, making him an excellent companion for those who appreciate a laid-back pet. Mookie’s refined exterior hides a few delightfully quirky traits that make him all the more charming. When he’s lounging on the couch next to you, he’ll subtly rest his paw on your leg, as if to say, "I'm here, but I'm also low-key claiming this spot as mine." It's a gesture that speaks volumes about his understated confidence and his knack for making his presence known without being pushy. Mookie has been in foster care for a year and is ready to settle into a place to call his own. Although he hasn't found his perfect match yet, one thing is certain, his resilience and enduring spirit ALWAYS shine through. Mookie does require some special care due to skin issues. He has a hypoallergenic prescription diet as well as medication. While this could seem overwhelming, Mookie's easygoing nature makes the process completely manageable. His medication is given to him directly into his mouth and he’s very calm about it, making the process less stressful for both him and his humans. Mookie is truly a loving and affectionate companion who can’t wait to bring joy and companionship to his forever home.
