ADOPTED:Hawksley Workman was rescued from a high kill shelter when he was just a baby. In his foster home he has proven to be the biggest love bug a foster family could ask for. He was rescued with his friends Alanis Morrisette and Joni Mitchell ( both adopted).
Hawksley experienced some trauma when he was only a few weeks old, leaving him with a broken elbow, a permanent limp and lots of pain in his front right leg. When he entered the TCR program his injury was far beyond repair, so the rescue made the difficult decision to amputate his leg, thus allowing him to live pain free for the first time. Hawksley was able to quickly adapt to being a three legged kitty, only slowing down long enough to change gears. It’s hard to remember the amount of pain the poor guy was rescued from as you watch him run, leap and pounce around the house. This little dude is certainly a special one.
To say Hawksley is a cuddle bug would be an understatement. This kitten is not happy unless he is lounging on your lap, or being carried around in your arms. His purr is non-stop, except for when he is sleeping, which he also enjoys. He has the cutest meow and when you talk to him, he will talk right back to you. He loves to sleep on the bed with you at night, often right on your chest or shoulders. What a cutie!
Hawksley is a kitten so he does get up to some mischief, but playing is his absolute favourite thing. During recovery from his operation he had to resign himself to playing with a kitten puppet and a laser pointer (to avoid further injury from rough housing), but now that he is better he is looking forward to playing with real kitties again. Hawksley would love to go to a forever home with another pet so he can have a new best friend. He deserves only the best!!
Toronto Cat Rescue wishes everyone a safe and happy Easter long weekend!
Extra sweet Honey meows "Happy Easter!"
Please remember that lilies are highly toxic to cats. If a cat ingests even a small amount, it can do severe damage to their kidneys (more information). If you are bringing a festive Easter lily or Spring bouquet that includes lilies into your home, please ensure the flowers are placed where your cat cannot nibble on them.

ADOPTED!! Larry and Maddie are bonded siblings that are seeking their forever home together – when separated they meow for each other! They are kitty charmers who can’t wait to be adopted into their forever family – they promise lots of cuddles and to make you laugh with their cat antics! They came to their foster home after their adoptive parents had to give them up and they settled in quickly and mixed extremely well with the two younger cats already in the home. Both Larry and Maddie are easy to look after as they are well litter trained and easy to love as they are both so lovable!
Larry is a very handsome cat who loves his sister Maddie. He is the quieter of the two. He likes to cuddle, but is his own man and will only cuddle when he wants to. Larry likes to sit in high places so he can watch over what is going on around him.
Maddie is an affectionate and sociable cat with big loving eyes. She loves to snuggle and constantly comes up to you for attention. She loves nothing more than lazing around next to you and giving you love.
This fabulous pair of felines have been neutered/spayed, vaccinated and were born August 30, 2008.
