Story
female –torti – DOB April 2022 Marble is a very loving and affectionate girl who loves to be petted and is fine with being held. She can be a bit of a talker and quite persistent when she wants attention or her moist food. Marble was rescued from outdoors in the country when she was pregnant. It was noticed that she has a rotating back hip when she walks and therefore it was decided that an xray was in order to see whether she had been previously injured or born this way. It turns out that both of her back legs had been previously broken in several places and had healed on their own but not properly. It is not known what happened to her to create these serious injuries. The vet couldn’t believe that she could actually walk looking at the xrays however she walks quite well in spite of these injuries. She can’t jump very high however she is able to go up and down stairs. It has been decided to put her on a monthly injection of Solensia which is an anti-inflammatory to control pain for osteoarthritis. Marble will require this injection to be given by a vet for life and the cost is $70.00 and up monthly depending on the vet. In spite of her injuries Marble enjoys some play time. She likes chasing a laser light for a brief period or jumping at it, interacting with a wand toy or you may find her just laying in her cat tunnel. Marble loves her cat bed and that is likely where you’ll find her napping every afternoon. Watching the birds and squirrels from the window is another of her favourite pastimes. She has not had any exposure to dogs. Marble is a bit shy at first with new people therefore she would do best with a single adopter or a quiet couple. She would love to be an only pet as she is not fond of other cats and she would then be able to receive all the love and attention for herself that she craves. This sweet girl is now looking for a second chance at a forever home and receiving all the love and attention she likely never received in her first home. Marble is spayed – vaccinated, microchipped and dewormed. Martha is located in Kitchener. If you are interested in adopting Marble please contact her foster mom Linda - lsadows@outlook.com

Vincent Male DOB June 17, 2021 FIV/FELV negative Neutered, dewormed, fully vaccinated including rabies and microchipped *Meet him at Pet Valu in Stratford Vincent is a sweet loving boy who is looking for his forever home! He’s been through a lot in his short life, having been surrendered to us. He is learning what love is and has blossomed in his foster home! He prefers to be in your lap and gives lots of kisses! He may take some time to warm up to new people. He will need a quieter, adult only home (no children please). He must be on urinary kibble for the rest of his life. He is in perfect health and loves his kibble with wet food at dinner. We think he deserves to be the king of his castle as the only cat, and soak up all the love that he’s been missing.

Story
Meet Journey at Pet Valu, Stratford Journey is a big quiet guy who doesn't talk much. He is laid back and loves his catnip toys. He needs a calm and quiet home with or without other cats and no young children. He would do best with a passive cat. Journey likes to climb tall cat trees and look out big windows. He enjoys food and loves getting a kiss before mealtime, right on the lip! He isn’t a lap cat but will sit next to you. When he is tired he will find his plush bed and make biscuits as he purrs and falls asleep. Journey has had a difficult past as his name suggests, he has had a journey alright! He needs someone who knows and enjoys “the orange cat personality”. He needs someone who will love him as he is and be committed to him. He is a great cat and a good listener.

Story
Cyrus Male Apx DOB May 20 2023 Neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped. Cyrus is THE sweetest kitten! He LOVES to be held and carried around. He always wants to be with his person/people. He loves other cats. He is a quiet guy who enjoys snuggles. Cyrus likes to play, sleep and eat. Mealtime might be his favourite time or treat time, its a toss up;) Cyrus was found in a ditch at about 6 weeks old. He had a very bad URI that just wouldnt go away. It was determined by his vet team that Cyrus has herpes. This means that he is prone to URI and will need medication to overcome them each time he is sick. As he gets older his immune system gets stronger and he has far less URI flare-ups than before. He has lived with very healthy adult cats who have never gotten sick when he has. He very much wants to live with other cats. Email for an application: axelsimprintrescue@outlook.com

Story
Diana Female Dob Approx July 2019 This stunning girl came to us December 2022!!! She has been with us over a year now and it's time for her to find her family. Diana was caring for her kittens in a small community as winter set in. Her kittens were rescued with her coming into care a short time later. Diana was very scared and we had her TNR'd thinking she would have to return to her outdoor life. Given the frigid winter we chose to keep her indoors with hopes she would learn to trust. She adored the kitties in her foster room, and now in her foster home as she is blended with the resident kitties. She snuggles close with the other cats and follows them everywhere. She watches them get love from their mom but she just hasn't quite got past her fears to accept love. Her foster mom can pet her at certain times and once she is being pet she seems to enjoy it, but she is fearful of sudden movements still. Diana is an active part of her foster home, mingling with the other kitties and coexisting with the dogs. She is still not sold on being pet but in the right home and environment she could get past that fear. She truly seems to want to snuggle in with her foster mom as the other kitties are getting snuggles but her fear holds her back. We feel, with time and patience she may even become that snuggle cat. She must have a few friendly felines in her forever home as she just adores other cats. Some might say Diana is not adoptable, why would you post her for adoption if you can't handle her?? We have hesitated for months to post her with hopes she will learn to trust enough to enjoy being pet. We feel she is just as deserving as any other kitty, we just have to find her the right person. She may never be a lap kitty, or she might turn into the biggest snuggler once with her very own people. There is NOTHING more rewarding then winning the love of a semi-feral kitty ❤️ Right now Diana lives in a home where her foster mom runs a rescue, works fulltime away from the home and cares for MANY animals. Unfortunately she doesn't get focused socializing time. We have faith that there are other loving, crazy cat people, that would welcome and love Diana for who she is, a beautiful calico with stunning markings😻 Diana is fully vaccinated, spayed and microchipped. If you'd like to be a part of her journey and offer her a forever home you can find our application and process on our website.

Story
Pepper was rescued after she turned up in someone’s backyard in Kincardine. Posts were made to try and find her family with no success. She then came to Rtcr. Pepper is sweet, affectionate and playful. She is the first to greet you at the door, and joins every activity around the house. She enjoys being the center of attention, in fact, she often demands this! She's quite curious about everything and loves to turn anything into a toy or fun new game to play. From hiding in cozy places to snuggling with her foster mom, she has a super sweet side. Her shenanigans are bound to make you laugh often. Pepper has been waiting since April for her forever home!!!! Pepper's preference for being the center of attention and her occasional feisty interactions would suit her being an only cat, or a companion to another young and active cat. Pepper is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped and received parasite control. You can find our adoption process along with our application on our website
