Domestic Short Hair Cats Available for Adoption in Vaughan, 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**

***Jaxson MUST have a playful buddy or two in his forever home. Any of his many brothers would be great, unless there’s a young, friendly cat waiting for him in his new home,

Jaxson is a fluffy black ball of energy with the softest fur and the sweetest face. Born on March 7, 2026, he’s playful, affectionate, and always in the middle of the action with his brothers. Jaxson loves climbing, chasing toys, and pouncing on anything that moves. When he’s all tuckered out, he enjoys snuggling up for pets and naps. His fluffy coat and loving personality make him impossible to resist.

Jaxson is cryptorchid, and will come back to be neutered by our vet in a couple of months. We hope his new family will love him lots in the meantime!

Would you like to make Jaxson a part of your family? Please complete our online application found at: https://www.avacats.org/adoption-application-form.

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

Adoption fees are $275 for each kitten up to 12 months old. 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!
