Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Pickering, Ontario

Angel is a lovely dilute tortoiseshell who was found living outdoors and brought inside to live a safer life. This sweet and gentle girl enjoys the comforts of indoor living--good food, regular meals, cozy spots to curl up in.

Angel is still a bit shy with people, and it will take her a little time to adjust to her new home. Gentle affection and the occasional treat are good ways to win her over. It will be rewarding to watch her personality shine through as her trust grows and she becomes a loyal friend.

Angel gets along well with other cats and will need to go to a home with another young and gentle cat.

Our adoption fees cover vetting and include spay/neuter, vaccines (initial FVRCP and rabies), flea treatment, two dewormings and microchipping.

Adoption fees are $275 for each cat under the age of 12 months and $250 for each adult cat 1 year or older. Please note that fees may apply for additional required vaccinations (at $75 per booster) due prior to adoption. Total adoption fees will be confirmed by the AVA Adoption Coordinator.

All AVA kittens 12 months or younger must be adopted in pairs or go to a home with another young cat (3 years or younger). Kittens learn from each other how to behave, which helps them turn into well-adjusted adult cats. In general, paired cats have happier and healthier lives because they have a constant companion and playmate. Plus, it's twice the fun for you, and half the work!
