Meet Augie: A Story of Resilience and Love 🩶🤍

Augie is a brave little stray who found his forever home thanks to VOKRA! 🐱🏡 Rescued by our co-founder Maria from beneath the Granville Bridge, Augie was in critical condition, suffering from a severe ear infection and in need of immediate medical attention. With love and care, he began his journey to recovery.

During the pandemic, Matthew and his wife, who had recently lost their beloved cats Roland and Basil, welcomed Augie into their hearts and home. Although shy at first, Augie quickly warmed up and found a best friend in their cat Charlie. Today, he enjoys playful wrestling matches, hide-and-seek, and charming dinner performances that never fail to make his new family smile.

Tomorrow on International Homeless Animals Day on August 17th, Augie’s story is a reminder of the incredible bond and joy that comes from adopting a cat in need. Your support allows us to create more happy endings for cats like Augie.

Read more about Augie's journey and other inspiring stories on our blog at vokra.ca. Consider volunteering, fostering, or donating to VOKRA—let’s work hand in paw for a better future! 🐾✨

Meet Sally and Harry, the ultimate "love bug" duo who are ready to find their forever home together! 🐾💕

Sally is the queen of cuddles, and her affectionate nature will melt your heart. Bottle-fed from infancy, she absolutely adores people and can't get enough of playtime and snuggles. Every morning, Sally will greet you with a tail-wrapped hug and a request to be picked up. She’s a total hugger, reaching out her little arms to snuggle as close as possible. Sally is also full of gratitude, often giving your leg a gentle hug and making sweet trilling sounds to say thank you. She’s energetic, smart, and loads of fun, always ready to entertain with her playful antics. Sally shares a special bond with her brother, Harry, and she almost always wins their wrestling matches! 😻

Harry is a mild-mannered sweetheart who loves cuddles just as much as Sally. He’s a patient little guy, often waiting quietly for his turn to be picked up. But once he’s in your arms, he’ll snuggle right in and purr enthusiastically. Despite his gentle nature, Harry is full of energy when it comes to playtime. He loves to chase and wrestle with Sally, and the two of them can entertain each other for hours with their favorite toys. When he’s all tuckered out, Harry will happily curl up with Sally for a nap or cozy up on your lap. 🥰

These two siblings have a close bond and must be adopted as a pair. If you’re looking for double the love, affection, and entertainment, Sally and Harry are the perfect pair for you!

Meet Georgie and Freddie, an inseparable pair of love bugs who are looking for their forever home together! 🐾💕

These brothers were bottle-fed from when they were tiny, which makes them incredibly affectionate and friendly. Georgie, the smaller of the two, is a gentle soul who loves nothing more than curling up on a lap and purring away. He’s calm and quiet, but he’s starting to discover the joys of playful chases and wrestling games with Freddie. Georgie is the ultimate cuddle buddy, often reaching out for hugs and giving nose bumps and kisses when you pick him up. 🥰

Freddie, on the other hand, is the more energetic of the duo. He loves to jump, run, and wrestle, and he’s always ready to chat, especially when he’s craving cuddles or food. Despite his playful nature, Freddie is just as affectionate as Georgie, often snuggling up for a nap with his brother or on a warm lap.

These two are bonded for life and must be adopted together. If you’re looking for a pair of sweet, loving, and playful kittens, Georgie and Freddie are your perfect match!

Peanut is a gentle and energetic little kitty with a love for zoomies and snuggles. She’s always part of the action, even helping out in the kitchen with her curious nature!

Mabel is curious and playful, always exploring her surroundings and engaging with her favorite toys, especially anything with a wand.

🐾 Meet Willow Pill, the most gentle and proper little guy! He loves to play and snuggle, but only on his terms. Nice gentle scratches, please! And if you lean down and slow blink at him, he'll happily give your nose a sniff.

Willow's siblings can overwhelm him since they don't play on his terms, so he'd prefer a home with another adult male cat. Sometimes he needs a little help with grooming to stay gorgeous.

He gets along well with his foster family's large, low-energy dog and adult cat, respecting their space. Willow also loves to chat and will let you know when he wants cuddles, is hungry, or just wants to tell you where he is. 🐱❤️

Meet Jinkx! 🐾 He loves a good romp with his siblings and isn’t shy about demanding pets when he wants attention. Just plop down in front of him, and he’ll let you know he’s ready for some love. When it’s time for a nap, Jinkx enjoys snuggling up in cozy, den-like beds.

His foster family includes a large, low-energy dog that he loves to climb all over, and he's respectful of the resident adult cat, giving them space. Jinkx is quite the talker and makes sure to let you know when he wants cuddles, is hungry, or just wants to announce his presence. 🐱💕

24/07/2024

Meet DeeAnn, a beautiful bundle of energy, and her sister Mousie, the most human-friendly, attention-seeking kitties! 🐾 These two sweethearts went from a loving home to living in a car before being surrendered to VOKRA. Both are sweet, gentle, intelligent, playful, and extremely bonded, so they must be adopted together into a forever home. 💕

DeeAnn loves to play and shows off amazing matrix aerial moves when catching dangled toys. She and Mousie are chatty, quick to purr, and love meeting new people, welcoming them with head butts while seeking petting. 🥰

They tend to be underfoot as they love following their humans around. DeeAnn adores belly, back, and butt rubs, while Mousie loves being on laps and held. Both have been amazing caregivers to Mousie's kittens born in our care. 🐱

These green-eyed beauties will thrive together in a home with lots of space to roam and hang around with their human companions who have the time to play and cuddle with them. 🏡

Both have excellent manners, always using their litter boxes, not scratching furniture, and exploring without knocking things over. Gentle souls who never bite or scratch, they just want to give and receive love and attention. 🫶 They will make their lucky adopters the best companions ever.

Meet Mousie, a beautiful love bug, and her sister DeeAnn, the most human-friendly, attention-seeking kitties. 🐾 These two sweethearts went from a loving home to living in a car with their owner. When Mousie's owner realized she was pregnant and couldn’t provide the safe home they needed, she made the tough but loving decision to surrender them. 💔

Two weeks later, Mousie gave birth to five tiny kittens, and both she and DeeAnn have been amazing caregivers. 🐱 Super sweet, gentle, intelligent, and playful, these sisters are extremely bonded and must be adopted together. 💕

Mousie and DeeAnn are chatty, quick to purr, and love greeting new people with head butts. 🐾 They enjoy following their humans around and being underfoot. Mousie, especially, loves being a lap cat and being held. 🥰

Meet Auggie, a sweet, curious, and active girl who loves to play and chat! 🐾 She needs someone with time to play and patience to earn her trust. While she’s not super cuddly, she loves to be beside you and may become a lap cat with time.

Auggie adores being brushed and is getting better with nail trims. She would likely thrive with another active cat after a proper introduction and might do well with older children. Auggie’s favorite things? Nose boops and kisses! She’s always happy to see her caregivers. 🥰

✨️Meet Musubi! This little doll is ready for her forever home. She has Cerebellar Hypoplasia (CH), which means she wobbles her way through life, but it doesn’t slow her down. CH cats are known for their sweet, loving nature and Musubi is no exception. She has the kindest personality and loves to snuggle and purr with her human and animal friends. Highly tenacious, Musubi will be an amazing addition to the right home.

She needs a home without stairs and ideally with carpets or rugs. Musubi adapts well and is independent, but stairs are challenging for her. She’s okay with smaller calm dogs and cats and must have a buddy.

🌸 Fluffenstuff is a stunning and elegant lady with a lot of personality. Initially cautious in foster care, she would walk across laps and enjoy treats but was hesitant to be touched, often reacting defensively. After months of patient care, she has transformed into a sweet and loving companion.

Fluff spends her days snoozing on her cat tree, grooming herself meticulously, and indulging in playful moments chasing toys and exploring scents from the outdoors. She proudly struts with her majestic tail held high. Her absolute favorite pastime is being brushed with a long-bristled brush, which she adores for the gentle scratches through her coat. She'll purr contentedly while rubbing her cheeks against the brush in bliss.

Fluff prefers to be the sole pet in a quiet home without children, where she can receive undivided love and attention. If you're ready to welcome this affectionate and independent beauty into your life, apply to adopt Fluff at vokra.ca/adopt.
