Four cats need a home after their owner passes away

This is a note we received from Emilia in N.D.G. who needs to find homes for four cats.

My name is Emilia I live in Montreal, N.D.G. My neighbor passed away last week, leaving behind four cats: three  girls and one boy, aged between 5 and 8.

I already have two cats of my own, so I am trying to find them a home to avoid taking them to the SPCA. However, I haven't had much luck. All cat lovers I know are already full.

For now they are still in the apartment buy the end of the month approaching so I don't know until when I will be able keep them there.

EMAIL  nakata@live.ca  if you or someone you know would like to adopt one or more of these cats. See their photos below.

  

Dumbo is looking for a home

Dumbo is looking for someone to bless him with a warm forever home. Found as a stray on Nuns' Island, he has been homeless and freezing out in the cold for too long. He is a very affectionate feline.

This handsome guy is incredibly sweet, friendly and gentle, about 3 or 4 years old, neutered, FIV+ (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus), but in excellent health. He’s so deserving of a second chance at a happy life in a single-cat home, or with other FIV+ kitties. Dumbo has a lot of wisdom, value and love to offer. To adopt Dumbo, please email: sinem.inkaya@gmail.com.  Cats can live healthy lives as carriers and transmitters of FIV+. The chances of passing it along to another cat are rare and generally only occur if they get into a massive fight. Therefore, Dumbo would be better in a home as the only cat. "I will say," notes Shelley Schecter of Educhat, "that one of our vets adopted an FIV+ cat and she has two others. There have been no problems."

Orange kitten available for adoption

We have this four month old orange kitten we have temporarily named Julep.

He is a very nice and cute boy who needs a forever home.

Two beautiful cats available for adoption

Ten month old Jack is looking for a home.

Marilyn Chernack found Jack in her backyard some months ago.  Since she already had two cats of her own who did not take to other felines kindly,she made sure Jack was well fed. The Côte Saint-Luc Cats Committee had him neutered and his ear tip clipped. He began coming into her house, but only as far as the window sill. He seemed afraid of her cats. 

On the eve of our first snow storm of the season, Marilyn got him into her house -  much to the objections of Boomer and Chester."He didn't stay long; he took a tour and left," she said. "Then, in the middle of the snow storm,  he showed up, came in and hasn't left. My Chester is used to him now, but Boomer isn't and doesn't stay in the same room as Jack. He's not a happy camper.

"Jack is completely socialized, even more than my own cats do is eat play and get stroked and kissed. I've taken in many cats off the street and socialized them but Jack has been the easiest."

 If you are interested in adopting Jack, please email mcohen@cotesaintluc.org.

The Côte Saint-Luc Cats Committee has this beautiful two year old female cat available for immediate adoption. Erica is a brown tabby, loves people and cuddling. Committee members Eric and Kimberly Goldapple found her near their home. She was taken to the CSL Hospital for Animals. While they determined that she has been sterilized and is in perfect health, there was no identification tag nor an identity chip. We can only determine she was either abandoned or escaped. With no ID nor any calls to our office, we have no way of finding out if she belongs to someone. If she is an outdoor cat, under CSL rules she is supposed to have a license.

She is under the care of the  Goldapples right now. But because Eric is allergic, he would look to find her a good home as soon as possible. Please email mcohen@cotesaintluc.org.

Erica relaxes.

Beautiful Erica.
