Poppy - Domestic Short Hair Cat for Adoption in Pickering, Ontario

**NOTE: All AVA kittens under 12 months of age MUST be adopted in pairs or to a home with another young cat. AVA does not accept applications for single kittens**

Poppy is one of the lucky cats who was rescued from a hoarding situation with more than 100 cats being kept in a cramped trailer on crown land in Algonquin Park (Facebook post - https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1LqLpBtV2c/ ).

Poppy is a sweet and affectionate young girl who loves being close to her people--she’ll happily follow you from room to room and will even meow to check that you’re still nearby.

Playtime is one of Poppy’s favorite activities! She loves wand toys and laser toys, and when playtime is over, she’ll proudly carry her wand toy around the house.

At night, Poppy enjoys sleeping with her foster family, and in the morning, she’s ready to start the day with lots of purrs and plenty of cuddles. Poppy is truly the queen of cuddles!

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!
