Toronto Cat Rescue receives many daily calls from owners asking us to take in their family pets, which for various reasons they no longer are able to keep. Because our foster homes are always full, our solution is the Owner Surrender Program.
Adopt Lucy: An adorable dilute calico
Toronto Cat Rescue Owner Surrender Program allows you use of our volunteers and our website to assist you in your efforts of finding your cat a new home. If your cat is healthy, social and adoptable, we can provide assistance in finding homes for these loved pets. Your cat will remain with you in your home and be posted on the Available Cats section of our website, and on websites we are affiliated with (ie. PetFinder.com and Adopt-A-Pet.com). Toronto Cat Rescue adoption coordinators will recommend your cat to suitable potential adopters, and then you can set-up a time to have the potential adopter meet your cat. If you and the adopter are happy with the adoption, then you will have them fill in the TCR adoption contract, collect the adoption fee (mail both to TCR) and be safe in the knowledge that your cat has been adopted into an amazing new family.
For detailed information and to apply for this program please call 416-538-8592 (press #3) or email tcr.surrender@gmail.com. We also ask that you complete the Owner Surrender Application and email it to TCR. Thank you for taking the time to find your cat a new, safe, forever home. We will do all that we can to assist you.

Hi Carol – Please call our “Help For Cats” line for more information on how TCR may help: 416-538-8592, press #3, TCR has an owner/surrender program.
I guess you’ve already tried those electrical hose-like covers? They are designed for aesthetic purposes but I would think could also provide protection against chewing teeth.
It’s is good that you are disclosing. You obviously love your cat and want the right home for him.
I once had a cat that would relentlessly pursue plastic bags to chew on. More amusing than a hazard however.
Good luck to you both.
Boo-boo Joe cannot come to my new apartment when I move at the end of January.
He is an 8 year old Champagne tabby, short haired, handsome and affectionate although shy at first. I have a huge problem here. I know that it is difficult enough to find a home for an older cat but this one comes with a fetish for electrical cables. He chews everything from lamp cords to power tools or computer cables. Has cost me a small fortune in remedies, vet visits and replacement cords over the years. His bad behaviour increased last year when his feline companion died. He needs feline company in a controlled area with no electrical cords. I cannot cope with the idea of him spending the rest of his life in a small cage waiting to be adopted. It is only fair to the humans though to warn them that he may be a furry fire-hazaard.
Please help I don’t want him to be put down.
