Name: Asia Born: July 2015
Asia the cat was rescued when NTCR received a call about cat that was abandoned in the dead of winter, when her owners moved away and left her behind. She was living in a parking garage in the Fairview Mall area. When she first arrived she was overwhelmed and very aloof when it came to trusting people and being touched. With an abundance of unconditional love and patience she is learning that she is safe and people are her friends. A stunning uniquely marked calico, with the cutest carrot shaped striped nose, gorgeous amber eyes and the silliest of purrsonalities. Asia is an extremely curious and playful beauty who is a little shy at first but will easily engage when play is involved as enjoys being petted and stroked. She sometimes gets a little over zealous during play time and can be a little nippy & swatty sometimes, all in the name of play, but is slowly learning that she does not need to be. Excellent with all her roommates, she is often found snuggled up in the sleeping kitty pile. Asia would do best in a mature home that is willing to show her patience, tenderness and who understands her need to feel safe and continue to guide her on her journey to confidence. If you want to be the one to show Asia the cat what it is like to have, unconditional love, a “furever” home and family, please fill out an adoption application and contact NTCR.

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!

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.
