Presenting - Ricky!
Ricky is still waiting for someone to give him the loving home he deserves — and time is becoming critical.
Through absolutely no fault of his own, this sweet 8-year-old neutered male tabby has found himself without a permanent home. His original owner has gone into long-term care, and his current caregiver unfortunately cannot continue to give Ricky the time and attention he deserves.
Ricky is sweet, affectionate, and snuggly. He is up to date on his vaccinations and is simply looking for someone who will love him and give him a safe, permanent place to call home.
Ricky at a glance: 8-year-old male, Neutered, Domestic Short Hair / brown tabby, Vaccinations up to date, Sweet, affectionate & snuggly
We are now urgently looking for a new home for Ricky. His current caregivers are considering surrendering him, and we desperately want to find him a loving home before that becomes necessary.
Could you be Ricky’s happy ending? Or perhaps you know someone who could give this deserving boy the second chance he needs.
Please share this post! Even if you cannot adopt Ricky yourself, sharing could help us reach the person who can.
If you are interested in Ricky or would like more information, please contact compassionforpaws.ca

Presenting Jade and Spring!
DOB July 15/23
These sisters are lovely! Full of sillyness on occasion, they are mostly sweet, quiet and very well behaved.
Jade is the tortie girl and her sister Spring is a boldly marked tabby...Yes! They did actually come from the same mama!
Both cats are calm and non demanding. They don't ask for affection, but are happy when you offer a good scritch or gentle petting.
They are good with other cats and with gentle dogs. They have not been around children but would be fine with older kids. They are not the kind of kitties that you are going to pick up and carry around, but if you are working from home, they will stay in the office with you and keep you company.
I would prefer that they be adopted together but would consider separating them if you have another gentle cat in the home already
