Meet Rufus! – DOB: March 2014
Rufus came to NTCR when we received a distress call about a rescuer who had become terminally ill and was no longer able to take care of her rescued cats. An extremely handsome medium hair tuxedo, with the most adorable white paws, very long white whiskers and a wonderful and loving spirit. Rufus is adjusting to life in the shelter very well, but can be a little shy at first. He quickly warms up as soon as the petting and luvins start. He is a very inquisitive and curious spirit who has to “check out” everything that is going on around him. Rufus is also very active and loves to play with his toys and can be quite entertaining as he pounces, chases and knocks them around. He is excellent with other cats and would make the purrfect BFF for any family.

About North Toronto Cat Rescue
This column features Toronto pets available for adoption.
Our current features come from North Toronto Cat Rescue which is a no kill, no cage shelter in Markham, Ontario, Canada. They have saved over 2000 cats over the years from both the harsh environments of life on the streets and from kill shelters in Ontario and Québec. They care for both kittens and adult cats. I always like to promote getting an adult cat as it is a lot easier to pick the cat with the right temperament for you.
The NTCR shelter is run by volunteers with no government assistance. They currently have around 200 plus awesome cats that would love a good home. Go and visit them soon!
For more info, Visit the NTCR Website.
On another Note, NTCR is in trouble as they are losing their home in 2016 for development of the area. If you can offer any help in finding a new home for the almost 200 cats at the shelter, that would be amazing.
