Adult Cats Need Homes Too!
|
|
Kitten season, in Ontario, lasts for a long time. It starts in early spring and can continue until winter. Often during kitten season adult cats are overlooked for the smaller, cuter, kitten version. During this time TCR's numbers tend to rise (as you can see on the available cats page) to the point where there are not enough foster homes to continue saving cats from the streets, shelters, and lost homes.
However, adopting an adult cat does not only help our organization, there are many other great reasons and advantages to adopt an older cat.
- By one year their personality has developed: You can ask the foster family what the cat is like to get the best fit for you!
- They are not as crazy around the house: Kittens can be trouble makers, an older cat will cause much less hassle when being introduced into your house.
- No extra work: Older cats will be litter trained, spayed/neutered, have updated shots, and can often seamlessly integrate into your home.
- We have cats of all sorts: Do you have kids? Other cats? Dogs? Ask for a cat that is comfortable in the situation you live in.

Being A Responsible
Pet Owner |
|
There is more to owning a pet than cuddles
and giggles. When you adopt an animal you are taking
responsibility for a life. Your pet will love you unconditionaly,
and it is up to you to return this respect and love.
Pets are not a convenience, to be discarded or treated
based on our needs.
Below is information for you to consider
in the care of your pet. |
Make the best choices for your pets
| |
Why you should
NOT declaw your cat |
|
| Should cats be allowed to go outside? |
|
| Why you should
spay/neuter your pet |
|
| Know the dangers of toxic plants |
|
|
| If you have allergies you do not have
to get rid of your pet |
