Tabby and 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**

Meet Carleton!

Carleton is an absolutely wonderful little boy with the sweetest personality. He is incredibly friendly, affectionate, and loves being around people. He enjoys being picked up, cuddled, and hugged, and his loud purrs start the moment he gets attention.

Like any kitten, Carleton is playful, curious, and full of energy. He gets along well with other cats and loves having feline friends to play and snuggle with. Carleton must be adopted into a home with another young cat or kitten, or be adopted together with a feline friend.

One of Carleton’s most adorable traits is his incredibly quiet meow. When he “meows,” you can see his mouth moving, but often you can barely hear a sound at all! It’s impossibly cute and just adds to his charm.

Carleton has a healthy appetite, excellent litter box habits, and is an all-around happy, healthy kitten. He is sweet, social, playful, and loving, the complete package!

If you’re looking for a kitten who will fill your home with purrs, playfulness, and affection, Carleton may be the perfect addition to your family.

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!
