Watson here
Do you have a case that you'd like me to solve? Just kidding, I'm only a kitten ready for the next adventure of finding my furever home. I came into FFCR's care after a nice family was feeding my mom, brother and myself. My brother Sherlock and I were in the pound for only one night before a volunteer came to get us. At first we were very scared, trying to hide behind the litter box or under the nice cat bed. But it didn't take us long to realize that our foster mom was really nice. She gave us lots of yummy food, fun toys to play with and she gave the best head scritches. We had to stay in the foster room for a while because we were so small and needed to put on some weight. Foster mom gave us lots of love and fun things to do while we grew bigger and could finally meet the grown up foster cats.

At first we were introduced to the resident dog. Oh Boy! He was funny looking, we didn't like him at first. But after some time we realized he was pretty nice. Then we got to meet Bacon and boy was he fun to play with. We got to run and wrestle with him when we got free time. Most mornings when foster mom would let us out of the foster room we would run and snuggle on her lap while she had her morning coffee. I would get really close and purr really loud while Sherlock got bored after a while and venture off to play in the tunnel. I just love my foster mom so much, any time she looks/talks to me I start purring.
Everyone who meets me just adores how sweet and cuddly I am. And no one can resist my handsome amber eyes for long.
What do you say... want to take me home? I've got lots of love to give.

Everyone who meets me just adores how fluffy I am and my cute little pink nose.
What do you say, want to take me home?

Mittsu has had many health challenges but that didn’t dampen his spirit. His last health challenge was his teeth. Our wonderful vets took the ones out that were giving him grief. So now he can finally live out his retirement pain free.

🔸 FOSTER HOMES NEEDED🔸
Vetting and Supplies Needed supplied by the rescue.

We have a few cats looking for foster placement. Some are with temporary fosters and are looking for something more permanent. Some are looking for a quieter home to help them relax.

All are adult cats who’ve completed their vetting.
Cat #1- Marley, adult female looking for a home with no other cats. She needs some help with weight loss to help her feel her best.

Cat #2- Archie is looking for a quiet home to help him relax as he’s feeling a bit stressed with all the life changes.

Cat #3- Jonah is with a temporary foster and looking for a more permanent foster as an only pet. Jonah is on his last little bit of medication to treat some inflammation. He’s got lots of love to give.

Cat #4- MooMoo is a senior guy looking for a quiet home where he can get lots of love and attention. MooMoo does struggle with constipation which is easily managed with daily supplements (provided by us).

Cat #5- Luigi is a sweet sensitive boy who’s looking for a home with maybe one other cat/dog friend. He likes his cat friends but is finding the multiple cat personalities in his current foster home overwhelming.

If you can help please head to our website to fill out a foster application.

MooMoo
Male
Grey
Shorthair
Birthday: April 23, 2013
Senior Cat
Slow intro to other pets.

Likes: Just being with his family, spring toys, window watching.

Dislikes: Being left alone for a long time.

Highlights: relaxed, older gentleman cat who loves his family and enjoys laps and cuddles.

Hello there, my name is Moomoo!
Why Moomoo you say? Well it could be because I’m almost as big as a cow! Or maybe it’s that my baritone meow sounds lightly bovine? It really doesn’t matter what you call me though because I’ll probably already be by your side. I love my human friends very much and want to be included in everything! Watching movies on the couch? I’m there! Doing some late-night chores? I’ll clean under the fridge for you! Ready for bed? I’ll snuggle with you all night. Cooking? Well my foster mom told me that I’m not supposed to help with that but I’ll give you moral support from the floor.

Most of my life I had a very special human who was my whole world and once he passed away, I was so lonely and confused. Furever Friends stepped in and promised to help me find another special family. Firstly I needed a bit of a physical and tune up. I had to get a lot of painful teeth removed at the vet and I still need a daily laxative to keep my plumbing in working order. I felt a lot better once we had that all sorted out.

In my foster home a young Furever Friends volunteer took me under her wing and showed this old guy that I had lots of life left to enjoy. She showed me new toys … I especially like springs! She helped me lose a bit of weight so I can now climb the tallest cat tower! And best of all she showed me that I am still very loved and can have lots of special humans in my life! So now I’m on the search for my own special family … do you think that could be you? Do you have room for a MooMoo?

Oh!
Cute little Pierre is now available for adoption.

Pierre *ADOPTED!

Age: 3 months (2025-04-30) | S*x: Male
Breed: DSH | Size: S (0-30lbs)
Mutt-O-Meter: GREEN

Pierre here!
I am a very energetic happy confident kitten!
Right out of the gates I made myself at home. Hiding under the bed? Nope! Running from your foot steps? Not a chance! Quiet time? Nah!

I love playing with toys, playing with your feet and legs as you walk by and best of all…. Playing with the resident cat!

My foster mom says if I was a human, I would have no filter. Can’t take a hint. No clue! So for humans, give me 2 seconds to claim your heart with my cuteness, persistence and kitten antics.

Now, The cat in my foster home usually takes a few weeks to accept a new kitten in his house….bah…. I didn’t have time for that! So I pestered, I poked, I jumped, I followed, I pounced, I copied…I did everything to him! He may have lost his voice a bit with his hissing but guess what- I won him over and he loves me!!! He really does!

Foster mom loves how much he plays with me! I have brought out the kitten in him again!

I shared this story because I would love to have a buddy in my new house. Yes, I can entertain myself, but boy is it fun to have a wrestle partner. I probably would even like to have a dog as a buddy because I am so confident! Playing with a dog’s tail is probably just as much fun as playing with a cat tail and that is a favourite game of mine!

I haven’t met kids but I don’t see that being a problem! As long as they know I am still a kitten learning what is ok!

Also- I have 2 speeds. On and off. I am cute during both!

I will even take a quick nap mid-play! Middle on the floor? Sure? Draped over the back of the couch? Done that too! On your lap after playing with your fingers? Been there!
I am such a happy kitty I even sleep with a smile!!

I am learning to use the scratching post (Cause my foster brother does!) and I always use the litter box!

So - if you are looking for a kitten to keep you entertained…I may be your kitten!
Meow meow for now!

Meet MooMoo

This senior boy found himself looking for a new home after his caregiver passed away.
He came into Furever Friends in need of some vetting and TLC. Moomoo had a mouthful of painful teeth which our wonderful vets were able to take care of.

Moomoo now enjoys life and food to the fullest. He’s now ready to find his forever home.
