Special kitty Saturday featuring our chatty boy, Uh-Oh🖤
Please share to help find Uh-Oh's forever home!

Uh-Oh came to us with severe head wounds from an animal attack and was suffering from blastomycosis in his eyes and wounds. He spent months recovering and learning how to adapt to becoming a fully blind cat. Now that Uh-Oh is fully recovered, and blasto negative, he is ready to find his forever home!! Uh-Oh is very talkative, and loves to have full conversations. He will pick up on sounds to follow you around the house and to find out where to step. He is very playful and loves finding toy mice around the house - he throws them up in the air and hunts them. Uh-Oh is extremely affectionate, he likes to bury his head into you and knead on your lap - purring non stop. He loves his belly being rubbed and lies on his back soaking it all in. Uh-Oh is velvet soft, and has the silkiest black coat.

Since Uh-Oh is completely blind, he will need a special owner that can take the time to teach him the layout of their house - but he is a fast learner! Uh-Oh would do best in a house without other cats as unfortunately, he can play very aggressive but he does do well with big dogs! Uh-Oh has ongoing congestion due to the injuries he suffered to his nose/forehead that crushed his nasal cavities - this gave him a really cute congested meow but he will need close monitoring of his eyes and nose for the rest of his life. This boy is an absolute gem and he would be the best cat for the right family.

Uh-Oh is up to date on all vaccinations, microchipped, neutered, and dewormed. To fill out an application for Uh-Oh, please visit our website at https://thekenoracatshelter.com

Meet our goofy guy, Ferg🐾
Please share to help find Ferg's forever home!

Ferg is the goofiest boy at the shelter! He loves to play with toys, stealing them from his neighbours toy box and then tossing them up in the air and catching them. He has lots of energy and will somersault off of his bed and jump in the air but if you look over, he freezes thinking we didn't just see all of that. Ferg loves his hammock time and is often lying in it hanging upside down and watching us.

Ferg was found as a feral cat at a garbage dump. It has taken him months to come out of his shell and show his true personality. Since he was originally feral, he needs some time to warm up and feel safe but he gets braver and goofier every day! Ferg can still play a bit rough so a home without kids is best. He would likely do really well with other cats and dogs though!

Ferg is up to date on all vaccinations, microchipped, neutered, and dewormed. To fill out an application for Ferg, please visit our website at https://thekenoracatshelter.com

Meet our sweet girl, Tanya💚
Please share to help find Tanya's forever home!

Tanya is a sweet and shy girl who’s looking for a calm, loving home to call her own. She may take a little time to come out of her shell, but once she feels safe, her affectionate side shines through. Tanya loves quiet spaces where she can lounge in peace—sunny windowsills, cozy corners, or a soft blanket are her favorite spots.

She’s not one for loud noises or busy households, but in the right environment, she becomes a loyal, loving companion who adores gentle pets and quiet company. Tanya would thrive best in a peaceful home with patient adopters who will give her the time and space she needs to blossom. If you're looking for a mellow feline friend with a tender heart, Tanya might just be the perfect match

Tanya is up to date on all vaccinations, microchipped, spayed, and dewormed. To fill out an application for Tanya, please visit our website at https://thekenoracatshelter.com
