About Me:
Hi I'm Tux! I've found myself at the shelter in my golden years and am looking for a retirement home where I will be doted on and cared for forever. I'm around 12 years old and was very well loved by my pet parent but sadly they needed some assistance when their own health declined. As you can see, I do need to work on my own health too as I am a chonky girl who is on a diet and a mission to loose some of these extra pounds! I'm settling in well at WAG and making friends with the humans, they give me lots of pets and encourage me to play and move around my new room. So far I seem to like: naps, gentle brushing, food, chin rubs and more naps. I have a few cosy beds and have been trying each one out! My next checkup with my vet at PVH is coming up soon and then further recommendations can be made on my health if needed. Currently I am on prescription vet food designed to provide all that is needed for an older gal like me. Although if you ask me, they are being a little strict with my portion control around here.....
Keep an eye on my profile as the team learn more about me and my ideal home, as well as any health updates when we have them. If you feel you could give me a calm, warm and safe home to spend my days then please fill out an adoption form below.....
My Purrrfect Match:
- will be proactive with my health and give me all the love and care I need in my senior years, whatever that may bring
- will continue my health plan and keep me on the special vet food I am currently eating as prescribed by my vet, with any extra checkups as required/ recommended
- will be patient while I transition into my new home with my new family, I have had a lot of changes recently and I will need time to settle in. I would like a calm home where I can really relax
- will provide lots of enrichment, scratching towers, toys, catio if deemed appropriate etc.
- will keep me safe and happy, forever
My Story:
I came to WAG when my loving guardian was no longer able to take care of me due to their own health issues. They knew that WAG would get me the help I needed and find me a home to spoil me for the rest of my years.
Senior's like me often spend a long time awaiting adoption which can require lots of resources. But, thanks to donations to WAG's Critical Care Program cases like mine can be taken on to offer us a second chance at health and happiness. Please consider donating to their fund if you are in a position to do so!
Leia
LEIA
Breed: Domestic Shorthair
Gender: Female
Age: Approx. 1 year old
Size: Medium

Litter trained? Yes!
Kids? Unknown, likely with proper socialisation, supervision and separation
Cats? Unknown, possibly with proper socialisation, supervision and separation
Dogs? Unknown, possibly with proper socialisation, supervision and separation
Medical Needs: Recovering from my spay surgery once I am ready, then yearly vet visits and vaccine boosters
About Me:
Hi I'm Leia! I've been at WAG for a couple of weeks now along side my three babies who are fully weaned and are looking for their own forever homes too. We recently had our first ever vet checkups and did really well, happy to report that we all had a clean bill of health and were brave when getting our first vaccines. I'm a bit bored at the shelter, my kittens don't seem to need me anymore and I'd rather be out in a home of my own where all the attention is on me! I'm showing my personality more each day but I've been pretty chill here, this may change as my energy increases and I settle into my new life. I'm still young myself after all! At just over a year old I'm sure I'll enjoy playing and running around more, at the moment I love pets and of course dinner time and my turn for treats!
I am SO excited that it is my turn to find my own family, to love me and keep me safe forever and ever soon. If you feel like you might be the one, scroll down and fill out an application form today! WAG will be in contact with successful applicants and will arrange meet and greets - available for adoption now.
My Purrrfect Match:
- will be ready for a 15+ year commitment!
- have lots of patience while I transition into my new home with my new family
- will provide lots of enrichment, scratching towers, toys, catio etc.
- will keep my health in mind and take me into the vet for yearly checkups
- will understand that I am still developing and my personality may change over time! Pregnancy and growing kittens comes with a lot of hormones and then I will undergo my spay soon too so I may have a lot going on!
- will keep me safe and happy, forever
My Story:
I was brought to WAG with my young kittens by my loving family who sadly needed to rehome us. We are all doing well and looking for our forever homes now. I will soon be spayed to ensure that this is my last ever litter and can all focus on myself!
WAG can often have moms and their litters in our care, although adorable they do take a lot of time and resources so if you can, please consider donating to WAG's Critical Care Program, or Spay and Neuter Program, both of which help unwanted litters in the Sea to Sky corridor.

About Us:
Hello - we are Sabrina and Harvey!
We came into WAG's care together, and that's how we are most comfortable, with each other. We have been looking for a forever home for 6 weeks now and we hope we don't have to wait too much longer. Luckily we are in a wonderful foster home where we have a quiet, calm space to relax and come out of our shells. We are being great house guests but it would be a dream come true to find something more permanent where we know we never have to move again!
Sabrina is the more confident of the pair, from day 1 she was keen to come and say hi to visitors and get lots of attention. Toy wands have proved a great hit, really bringing out her playful side and personality. Harvey is the shyer of the two who is slowly but surely gaining confidence each day. She seems to like balls and will be slower to come out and say hi, but with patience she is coming out of her shell. Sabrina is a great role model and the pair are hoping to be able to stay together.
These ladies were seen by the wonderful Vet team at Eagleview for their first checkups, vaccines and spay surgeries. They both had terrible ear mites which have been treated and are feeling much better now! Harvey really isn't keen on going in a crate but the vet let us know that even though she was clearly frightened, they were both brave and great little patients.
Sabrina is gentle, but sometimes can get a little rambunctious during play and thinks your hands are toys! She is learning that being rough during play is not okay. Meanwhile Harvey goes at her own pace with handling, and may never be a lap-cat but is warming up all the time. At first she hid and didn't seem keen on coming out of her safe cat tree, but now is exploring and learning that humans are friends.
There’s been a lot of changes in our lives recently and so these gorgeous girls would very much like to be adopted by people who understand that time and patience, combined with love and respect is very important for us.

My Story:
My first family was no longer able to provide us the home we needed. As loving as they were, we are looking for a calm home environment, and an understanding one, as we are still young kitties and have lots to learn. Please consider adopting a pair and helping us stay together! We are currently in a foster home but can't wait to find our forever family.....
Shyer cats usually have a long stay at WAG, donating to their care helps WAG always ensure that we have a spot for these special kitties. If you can't adopt, please consider donating.
