Tabby kittens & cats in Kitchener, Ontario

Oakley (black) is 7 as of March 2nd, 2024. Freddy (brown) is 8 as of July 9th, 2024. They are from the same mom. VERY affectionate, which is why, with a heavy heart I want to find them a better home. I am a single parent to a toddler and struggle to keep them happy. 💔 They are both neutered and vaccinated I will provide you with food, food bowls (with lids), litter, litter box, scratching box and a few toys.

This sweet lady came back to us after her owners were unable to keep her. She is a very lovely kitty who enjoys being pet, will rub up against you and sit near you, but not on your lap, once she is comfortable with you. She tolerates being picked up and carried, but doesn't enjoy snuggles. She travels very well in the car and has made several road trips across Ontario. She likes catnip toys, but isn't a big fan of chasing a ball. She likes to watch visitors to her home from afar and isn't likely to visit for more than a passing head scratch. She is tolerant of children and other cats, but not dogs. She has been spayed, is up to date with her vaccines, is FIV/FelV negative and has had her flea treatment. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING!

This young gal came into our care pregnant, has had her time to be a momma and is now ready for her furever home. She can be very affectionate, and also very not affectionate! She took a long time to trust her foster momma, but is still wary of being picked up. She does enjoy a good petting and chin scratches and will sit nearby, but not snuggle. She is not a fan of dogs and children should be 10 or older so not to overwhelm her. A quiet indoor home with another quiet kitty would be ideal for her. She has been flea treated and dewormed, is FIV/FelV negative, up to date on her vaccines and has been spayed. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING!

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.
