3 Cats From Toronto Cat Rescue Looking For Homes

Toronto Cat Rescue urgently needs foster homes or forever homes for three special needs cats: Gus (chronic sinus issues) , Lance (FIV+) and Max (FIV+) To become a foster please fill out an application on our website http://www.torontocatrescue.ca or phone us at 416-538-8592.

Gus *declawed*'s Story...
DOB July 15, 2006. Gus is a super-affectionate guy. He loves to cuddle and shows his love with kitty-licks just like a little dog! He was rescued from a high volume shelter and settled in instantly at his foster home. Gus is a very unique guy who makes his foster parents laugh many times a day! He has the funny habit of waiting to lap up any potential drips from the bathtub faucet. His favourite toys are plastic balls with bells inside which he chases around and around the house. At night he loves to be spooned, and will happily snooze all night long in his spot on the bed.
Gus has had an upper respiratory virus since being rescued from the shelter. He has made several trips to the vet, who has concluded he has a chronic condition that may be with him for life. Gus isn't bothered by this condition in the least, but his breathing sounds loud and congested and he has bouts of sneezing or coughing. It can be easily managed through good food and nutritional supplements. He enjoys the company of other cats and would do well with other cats who have been exposed to the upper respiratory virus.

Because he is declawed, he has the tendency to nip - it is not painful, but he would do best in a home with older children or adults. Gus is so excited to find his forever home where he will be loved and cuddled and pampered.

Lance's Story...
DOB January 1, 2009. Lance was rescued from a high volume shelter were he was on death row. TCR became aware of him because their shelter contact was his champion and really wanted him to be rescued. At the time of rescue Lance had a condition where his eye lid was turned in and he needed surgery quickly! TCR saved this very sweet and affectionate boy from the cold, lonely shelter cage and got him straight to a vet. He had corrective surgery for his eye and was neutered at the same time. He went to a caring foster home to recover from his surgery. A couple of weeks later, at a recheck appointment, the vet determined he needed a second surgery on his eye. Finally, Lance's eye is on the mend and he is a happy boy once again. He just needs a forever home.
Lance is a very social and friendly boy. He gets along with dogs and other cats. Lance is FIV+, but please do not let this faze you - he is currently healthy and with a loving, low stress home and good food, this little champ can lead a long, happy life. He will be fine in a home with non-FIV+ cats as well. Please consider Lance to be a part of your family - he deserves a second chance at happiness in a caring home. He promises to return your love 100 times over!

Maxamillionaire's Story...
DOB January 15, 2010. Maxamillionaire is a very affectionate kitty who absolutely adores attention! He thrives at cuddling and loves to be patted - his purrs are never ending. Maxamillionaire will happily roll onto his back for anyone who promises to give him a belly rub!! This amazing cat will blossom in his new home where he will enjoy a carefree life of cozy blankets, food a plenty and (hopefully) treats! Maxamillionaire is a simple guy who enjoys watching the world go by, or perhaps a game of chasing string.
This sweet little black and white cat who looks like a little cow is currently seeking his forever home. Ideally, his forever home will not have other pets. This young dude was rescued from the lonely streets of a very rural community and placed into the care of a loving foster home. With his days as a stray behind him, Maxamillionaire is enjoying the comforts of home living.

Maxamillionaire has tested positive for FIV (read more about FIV: http://torontocatrescue.ca/2011/03/07/feline-immunodeficiency-virus-fiv/), but please don't judge this little fellow based on a blood test, he is a wonderful cat that can lead a long, happy life. Maxamillionaire is a special boy that has had a rough start to his very young life; he deserves a wonderful family that will love and cherish him forever.
