Hi my name is Oxalis! I was trapped at a colony in the Manotick area and brought into rescue as a "feral stray" but my fosters figured out just how friendly I am fairly quickly! I can be shy with strangers initially (for a day or two) but I then realize where the food is coming from. I love to be held and cuddled and have kitten-level energy. My favourite thing is the laser light. I am a lap cat for a few moments but often cannot stop moving long enough to stay put.

 

Foster Notes: Oxalis wants to be best friends with the other cats in his foster home, but they get overwhelmed by his energy and usually hiss and swat at him. He tends to be too much for other cats so likely best on his own. He would need people who are home alot to spend time with him. He has no known health issues and is not picky about food. He will even be quick to steal your dinner if not supervised lol! He is quite food and play motivated. He has not been tested with dogs or children, but should be fine with teens and cat savvy children younger than that.

 

ADOPTION FEE: The adoption fee is $225.00 (which includes a health check, first vaccination in a series and any that become due while in care, first anti-parasite treatments needed in care, spay or neuter and microchip at our Veterinary partner). There is a 10% discount when you adopt 2 cats/kittens. The adopter will be responsible for any vaccine or boosters, anti-parasite treatments that are needed after adoption. Kittens usually need 3 vaccines, one month apart starting at age 7 weeks. Juveniles and Adult cats usually require 2 vaccines one month apart in the first year, then annual vaccines. Deworming is recommended at the time of each vaccine appointment. If you are intending to adopt, please be aware that your Veterinary clinic may be experiencing backlogs in scheduling appointments, so do not delay calling your clinic to book your new cat's needed booster appointment(s). Please note that cats are not tested for FIV/FeLV nor can FIP be predicted. We will share any medical information gathered during our health checks and observations revealed during their time in care. But it is important to know that some illnesses can have an incubation period of 10 days, which means that a cat can leave in good health but get sick a few days post adoption. In addition, the stress of a new environment can affect a cats’ immune system.
