KOA

We did decide to keep the name Koa! We call him Tibby as a nick name. He’s been an amazing cat to add to our family! He is always following us around the house or cuddling up beside our heads when we sleep. He gets along great with the dogs, very fearless. Koa is an extremely confident little kitty and we love having him. 

MONTE

We did keep the name Monte even though I wanted to change it to Gator..... (My husband told our son we were getting a gator from House of scales) He's doing great and learning to co-exist with our older cat. He very playful and has taken to chewing sticks like a dog (which used to be my orchids plants). He's very interested in the fish Goldie and Karma the chameleon. He sleeps with my 7yr old son most nights.

SKRUNK

was MOSCATO

Skrunk, formally known as Moscato, is thriving! We certainly have our hands full. Her favourite game right now is to wait for us to leave a room and then jump on our legs and run away really fast! She has also doubled in size it feels like since we got her! She's full of life and energy and is so playful!  Thank you so much for allowing us to take her to her furrever home!

SASSY

was STEPHANIE

Stephanie is now called Sassy. She is doing great. She's adjusting well.  It's just my husband and myself.  I know she was allowed outside but I am training her to a harness and she's getting the hang of it.  She's very sweet and chatty. I bought her a bunch of toys and I love that she can entertain herself. I play with her a few times a day.  She's wild! She slams her body and bangs her head in excitement. I try to slow her down.  She has brought me a lot of joy after saying goodbye to my senior cat 2 months previous.  We both love her.

TILLY

was TIPPY

Tilly has been an amazing addition to our family! She made our home hers almost instantly; as soon as we brought her home she was a confident little ball of energy who loves to play, and she’s been running the show since! We brought her back for her spay just over 2 weeks ago now, and it went great, she’s all healed now. During the recovery time we had her in these little homemade suits, and surprisingly she didn’t seem to mind them at all, and cooperated everyday when we changed them up- and they were just the cutest!
She’s the sweetest, cuddliest little thing, and she’s completely melted our hearts from day one!

ROMA

was KENNEDY

 I changed her name to Roma! She’s awesome! I love her so much. She loves the car which is great! She always looks in the mirror to see how pretty she is lol  

MARIGOLD

was GRACE

Her name is now Marigold! She has made herself quite at home and loves napping on the couch in shrimp mode. She goes crazy while playing and does the most impressive flips in air. She’s so silly and affectionate and has truly brought so much joy into our lives. 

MARLEY and PUMBA

Marley's name is still Marley. He's settled in great at our house! We adopted him because our 2 year old cat, Pumba, who we had also adopted from ARK when he was a kitten, needed a brother.Marley proved to be the perfect addition to the family as they became instant best friends. Cuddling together, playing together, grooming/licking each other, eating side by side happily. We were so proud of Pumba for being so welcoming to Marley. Marley learned fast from Pumba when to meow at us for food. And he even sleeps on the bed with us (and Pumba) sometimes, otherwise they're together napping or playing somewhere else in the house. Marley is super playful and good with the kids, they kids love him. We're excited to watch him grow, he's already solidified his place in our lives. 
Thanks again! We love Marley and Pumba and Ark!

CINNAMON

was INDIE

Cinnamon is a welcomed final piece to our family.  She was just what we needed. Her demeanour is so sweet, and gentle.  She has her favourite toy that she carts around the house and fetches.  We are so in love with her.  
 

HEIDI

was Samsara

Heidi is slowly getting accustomed to our family. We have had her for over 2 months and she is just recently come out of hiding. I am able to pet her; she is  VERY affectionate but still remains very skittish. She is beginning to know our routines and greets me in the morning and when I return from work. She is getting more used to my husband and son; will engage in play with them but not let them pet her. She is a very sweet, frisky and playful cat. We have given her lots of space to come to us and she is slowly doing that.

MOMO

was Ollie

Momo is the cat’s new name.  She has been comfortable with people and our home since day one, and is doing very well.  She is smart and endearing.

LOTTIE

was Savannah

I changed her name to Lottie, and she is doing amazingly well! She has really warmed up to her new home and family and is quite the curious explorer. She loves all of her new toys, especially her pink butterfly, which she likes to drag around the house. She is also very affectionate and loves to cuddle with us when she’s in the mood.

She is such a smart girl and already knows three tricks: sit, spin, and high five! I can’t wait to teach her even more. When she isn’t asking to play, she spends her time napping in her cat tower or stealing papers around the house.

She was very well behaved at her first vet appointment and got a clean bill of health. She has brought so much joy to our home, and we feel so lucky to have her as part of our family.

BOWSER

was Trout

We renamed him Bowser and he is super cuddly and a little fat lol 

ROCKET

was Angus

We changed his name to Rocket, and he has been the perfect addition to our family. He’s full of energy, loves to cuddle, and we all love him so much—even our Golden Retriever! 

Thank you for everything you do at ARK. We truly appreciate all the hard work that goes into rescuing and caring for these amazing animals.

BOBBY

was Monte

Monte is now named Bobby. He is doing so well- he fits in famously with our family!

He loves our dog too! They have become special buddies!

TINKERBELL

was Cheddar

Cheddar (now Tinkerbell) is doing wonderfully. She is adjusting perfectly to her new home and her new friends! After 3 weeks of having her she was allowed to free roam and she did very well living and playing with my dog and cat. She loves playing fetch!
 She has gotten her second round of vaccines and is booked in for her spay and microchip on Sept 16th! She has also finished her third and final deworming process. Tinkerbell and her new feline sibling are besties! Her family ALL have fallen for this beautiful, little girl! Happy life, Tinkerbell! 

BLONDIE & IRIS

were OLIVE & IZZY

 Meet this gorgeous duo! Blondie & Iris (black & white) are doing very well with their forever family. Their new family loves them to pieces and they certainly appear to be loving their new home!  Not only do these two enjoy each other's company BUT they are getting along great with the resident dog and two other cats.  Blondie & Iris will be very well cared for, spoiled, and adored from here on out! 

We wish you and your growing furry family infinite love and cuddles!

         LONDON                               WILLOW      

Hi! I call my cat by her original                      I changed Lacey's name to Willow.

name, London. She's a little spoiled.            She is so adorable.   She fits right  

She doesn't like to eat her                               in with our  family.

regular cat food and prefers

canned chicken or fish.

Raven

Raven is setting in amazingly! She is still a little shy but she is starting to warm up to us a lot more! She is also starting to show her personality a lot!

CHESTER

was Clifford

This is Chester, he plays fetch (really!) He has a favourite mouse he will drop at your feet and you throw it, he brings it back and does it all over again LOL!  He also loves laying with his friend Gidget (the dog) by the patio door to watch the birds and chipmunks. He is very well behaved, we showed him his boundaries, ie. no to countertops or tables, and he only needed to be told once.  He is quite a treasure!

Chester is quite the talented, handsome guy and it definitely sounds like he is HOME! You will be forever loved for sure! Happy life sweet guy!

LUNA

was Kelly

Introducing the Beautiful Luna!

She is doing great and the whole family is in love with her.  She’s even gotten used to her doggo brothers Romeo and Zeus. She loves to roll around and head butt us with kisses. Thanks for helping our family grow and taking care of so many pets in need.

CLAWS and PERNIE

THE MAJESTIC, GENTLE GIANTS

were HICKORY and HAGGIS

Hickory is now "Nicoclaws - a.k.a. Claws" and Haigis is "Catpernicus a.k.a. Pernie"

They've got the run of the house, but choose to primarily hang out in one particular bedroom with their own TV (they love watching Cat TV on YouTube). 

Claws basically lived under a bed for the first 2 weeks, and then just woke up one morning having done a full 180 : he's the most affectionate, cuddly ball of joy I could've fathomed. He's still skittish with loud noises and sudden movements and isn't particularly fond of our dog... but otherwise, has done great adjusting - in my opinion.

Pernie was brave and curious from day one : he's all over the house constantly and even sleeps with us (when the dog doesn't notice) but continues to be a good brother. Even in the middle of the night, if Claws calls out to him - he'll reluctantly get up and go check on his little brother. It's adorable. He decided to get right in our dog's face (when we ultimately did a gradual introduction through a gate) and has demanded her respect ever since (also he's a little instigator and gets her going by pretending to get at her kibble if she leaves some in her bowl). This past week they even started playing together - chasing each other up and down the halls. He doesn't like being held much, but loves to cuddle (on his terms). They have the most amazing personalities.  Everyone who's met them is in awe.

They really are majestic, gentle giants! 

PORSHA

This gorgeous little girl was quite shy in the beginning and took time to realize that this was her forever, loving family. Her new family were very patient with her and knew that underneath that shy girl was the sweetest kitten they hoped for. Porsha is now feeling like she is at home and is obviously in love with her forever family and home! Porsha is a feminine name meaning "offering." Synonymous with luxury and glamour ... looks like her name suits her very well! Porshas are also known to be generous of heart ... and though it took her a bit to feel safe and open her heart ... it looks like she was worth the wait!

ANNIE & NOAH 

were Allie & Noah  

      Adopted Together!!   

These 2 sweeties were adopted together and are absolutely loving their lives! As you can tell they were bonded before adoption and it has carried over into their forever home! They definitely always find comfort in one another and are very affectionate toward one another. They are also in love with their new people and the feeling is mutual!  Noah loves to lay at my husband's feet.  It took just 9 days to train them to stay off the kitchen table.  Annie pulls her favorite wand from the toy bundle on her own.  They are so sociable with visitors.  Noah has several different meows while Annie barely makes a peep.  Noah loves tunnel rides.  Annie loves to play with the springs.  They complement each other ... just like my husband and I do! 

 MEADOW 

Adopted!!

 I adopted Meadow from Petsmart Belleville in early June.  I could tell she was a sweetheart.  She was scared and I was prepared that it would take time for her to feel comfortable.    She’s in a loving quiet home and I knew sure she would flourish here when she was comfortable.
Now, she’s feeling right at home and comfortable with me.  She is an absolute sweetheart and I’m lucky to have found her.  She’s eating great, using the litter great.  She loves to play, especially with ping pong balls.  She has a very nice clean safe house for the rest of her life.  Thanks for saving this sweet girl.   Another Happy Beginning!!

      Introducing the gorgeous companions       

MANDIE   &    INDIE 

                     was Annie                                                                                                                       

We named her Mandie because we had an Annie before her.  She is the little queen.  We have a large black cat named Indie and were not sure how he would be.  Mandie trained him right away.  It's clear she has had experience with bigger cats/animals before.  Indie will be 5 in August. He is an intelligent cat and so is Mandie, they learned to be gentle when I stepped in and put the duster in between them - they scattered.  Now they kind of just jump over each other, which is funny, and the big black cat watches and protects her, but moves away when she says so! She often sniffs at him but he just moves away from that too. I'm happy they are both so clever, very cute, and playfull. Mandie is only 3, so she is super playful, and as a female, more independent. She surprises me with her appetite, but that may be due to how fast she is and how jumpy and playful.She appears to be a mix breed , maybe a Chartreux or British short hair, I am unsure.  She is small, and fast and strong shoulders, and very close resemblance to a Chartreux, but nose like a British Short Hair. The other cat is a Bombay mix, so I have two lovely, smart, beautiful sweet cats. I'm very fortunate to have our new little Mandie to add to our family.( I call her Dee, and the other cat is Indie so we also call him Dee, and they come when called, if I cant find them!)Thank you very much!

  MEET this very handsome, love bug!    

MR. CHAN  

... was Blackie Chan    ADOPTED!!   New companion is Buzzy

Mr. Chan (formerly Blacky Chan) is settling in wonderfully and has adjusted very well to his new home. He and our other cat, Buzzy, whom we adopted a couple of years ago, are getting along amazingly. They love playing together, grooming each other, and spending time together.    

Mr. Chan has turned out to be a complete snuggle bug and truly everything we could have hoped for and more. We are so happy to have him as part of our family.

I’ve attached a few photos so you can see how well he’s doing!  Thank you again for bringing such a wonderful cat into our lives! 

 GEMMA & REECE 

Adopted!!

This was Reece the first week we brought him home. Gemma is our first Ark rescue. Reese has settled in beautifully. Living his best life ... (sometimes as a cushion for his bestie Gemma lol.) We just kinda called him Da Boy .. cause he was so little. Not so much anymore:)  We have a beautiful fur family now . Kids are grown, so these are our kids now. It has changed the household in such a fantastic fashion… we came home from the rock orchestra last night and as usual, were greeted at the door with love. Gemma had her first trip to the groomers this week … she absolutely loved the experience!! Thought I’d send a picture to show her off to those who made it possible to have the joy of adopting her!! Best kitty ever, although the boy would argue he’s the bestest kitty! Still can’t thank you enough!

 ROSIE 

Adopted!!

Rosie settled in very quickly and has mostly won over her big brother. She loves her new house and basket of toys and has a purr 10 times her size! Rosie is such a beautiful, unique looking girl!

RAVEN

was Astoria 

Adopted!!

I changed her name as it was hard to pronounce her original name. Her personality has really blossomed and she is the sweetest cat I've ever owned. Her new name is Raven!

 GUSSY   

was GUSTO    

Adopted!!   

Gusto or as we call him Gussy, is settling in perfectly! He really didn't take any time at all to make himself at home. Gussy is not a fan of our dogs but he gets along well with our other two cats. We absolutely love him here. 

Gussy does this funny thing. In the middle of the night when I'm sleeping, he creeps up so quietly and gently stretches out his little paw and taps me on the face until I wake up. It's become a nightly routine haha.

BEEF

was ALVIN

Adopted!!

Alvin now known as Beef or our beefy boy is doing amazing! He is one amazing cat and we are so grateful to be his new forever family. He’s super energetic, follows us everywhere and loves car rides. We absolutely love him to pieces! 

The New Amazing Life of our Beefy Boy.

Beef’s new life is full of love, comfort, and endless affection. After finding his forever home with us, he settled in like he’s always belonged here. His days are now spent enjoying cozy naps, all the treats a kitty could dream of, sunny windows, and spoiled every chance possible. Whether he’s causing chaos or demanding affection, Beef has brought so much happiness into his new home. Most importantly, he’s finally safe, and surrounded by people who love him endlessly. We are so blessed to have him in our lives. Thank you ARK

JOY

was Elam

Adopted!!

We recently adopted our new pet . His name was Elam.

Now his new name JOY (he is always happy that’s why we put JOY) and he has been an amazing addition to our family. From the very first day, he showed how gentle, friendly, and intelligent he is. He quickly became comfortable in his new home and loves spending time with everyone. His playful, energetic, and cute little habits make us smile every day.

He is very affectionate and enjoys being around people. He follows us around the house, loves attention, and always seems to know how to cheer us up. We are especially impressed by how well-behaved and adaptable he has been during this transition. He is learning routines quickly and responds so positively to love and care.

Our new pet has truly brought happiness, warmth, and excitement into our home. We feel lucky to have adopted him, and we can already see that he will be a wonderful companion for many years to come.  He is such a beautiful boy.

HARRISON

Adopted!!

He’s doing great! Thanks for asking. He’s the sweetest cat I’ve ever met and very loving and kind. Can’t believe I got so lucky with him. 

YAKIRA

was ELISE

Adopted!!

We have renamed Elise ... Yakira - which is Hebrew for “precious”. We absolutely love her to pieces and it’s so amazing to see her slowly come out of her shell. 
We have a 7 yr old male tabby named Paco and she has found a new friend in him. They play all night long and she loves to go sleep next to him. She lets me give her scritches and starts purring immediately - she just melts. 

 MAVERICK

Adopted!!

We recently adopted a sweet boy from your rescue. His name was Lennon, but we renamed him Maverick after seeing his personality. At pickup, he was absolutely terrified, and after learning about some of the things he had experienced before coming into rescue, we honestly expected he might always be a very timid cat. But watching him slowly settle in has been amazing. Maverick fits right in with the other cats in the house, loves curling up on a soft blanket purring away, watches birds through the front window and has discovered one of his favourite hobbies: attacking toes under the blankets at bedtime. He also has A LOT to say and keeps us laughing with his constant little conversations. It’s really beautiful seeing an animal finally feel safe enough to show their personality. We’re so happy he found his way to us. He's hilarious and we love him!

 MOONSHINE & MOLSON

Adopted Together!!

Our new cats, Molson and Moonshine, have been settling in so well and we couldn’t be happier with how they’re doing. They’ve already brought so much love, personality, and energy into our home, and it’s been amazing watching them grow more comfortable every day. From playing and exploring to cuddling up and relaxing, they are absolutely thriving and fitting right into the family. We’re so excited to keep making memories with Molson and Moonshine and watching them continue to grow and flourish.

PIXEL 

nicknamed Cricket

Adopted!!

The new addition is settling well into our family. Our two other cats are older and are unsure about the new tornado! Although Nala aka Queen Bee (grey cat) is still “not a fan” of the new addition, she tolerates her as long as the new girl is not too close to or laying on/touching "her human". Toby (Ragdoll boy cat aka Grandpa) is very curious about the new tornado but loves to play (more like wrestling or roughhousing) with her.

MARLOWE & STELLA

   were Moshi & SUSHI 

  ADOPTED TOGETHER!!

LUNA

It has been almost a month since Luna is here with us and we are happy to tell you that she is adapting well, still learning to trusts us but she is coming when she hears her name now, she put weight on and her fur looks a lot better! 

Luna and Oreo are friends and they have a lot of fun together, they are learning from each other, she is definitely part of our family now!

MOLLY & MAGGIE 

were WAFFles & Muffin

They are doing amazing! We love them so much! They are so good and patient with our loud kids. They were honestly the missing piece of our family!

They are getting quite big!! Maggie (Muffin) is getting to be quite the good eater shall we say haha. She’s already quite a big girl and we just love her!! Molly (Waffles) is still a crazy skinny girl who just doesn’t stop playing until it’s night and time to snuggle up either in her cat tree or right beside me on the couch.

They are both just sweet and perfect!! We love our new furry family members so much! 

                BAMBOO    

                                           was WYATT  

Wyatt is now Bamboo and his new kitten sibling is Mochi!  We have a bit of a zoo here - 2 goldens named Simba and Scar, an adult cat named Bonsai, and a bunny named Hawaii. We also have our 14 month old!!

The whole family loves Bamboo!! We are just slowly introducing all the animals to one another.

Bamboo and Mochi are always together! Its the sweetest thing! Bamboo is just the most affectionate kitten and we are obsessed with him. If he's sleeping in another room and hears our voices, he comes running and purring at the same time!

Our 14 month old aka "the bus driver" is often busy trying to find more passengers while his only taker, Bamboo, waits patiently for public transportation to get back and take him on a little trip around the kitchen.

We love our family and are excited to see what our family photo will look like next Christmas ... all 9 of us! 

PS ... The ARK TEAM is also looking forward to the 2026 Christmas shoot! Happy life to you all!

Sally (tortie) who we named Ginger and interchangeably call Ninja is the sweetest girl. We couldn’t believe how affectionate she is! She supported my girlfriend through aches and pains by laying on top and never leaving her side. We call her the “plop” kitty - she plops to her side and enthusiastically gives us her belly to rub. She’s not a hand cat, but loves close company and lots of pets and nose rubs. Shes very smart, she knows 7 tricks! We noticed early that Nate was the dominant one of the pair, and Gigi was very shy and cautious. At some point we used to think maybe Nate bullied her. Gigi has since really come out of her shell and she’s a definitely far from shy! While Nate loves to hog the mouse toy and carry it all around the place as he growls and chews on it, Gigi has a knack for finding all the lost and stuck ping pong balls and has great dexterity chasing them. 

Now that Gigi and Nate settled in ... Ninja is almost like a mama teaching them manners. 

It’s been a bit of a journey but they are finally getting along. 

ARCHIE

We've adopted a bold, senior cat and we love him. They told us at Petsmart his name was Archie, so we kept that, but what was his name before? He is settling in, he is definitely not a timid little cat, but the boss. He loves his new food, Hills kibbles (as long as the kibbles are cut in half). He is after all a senior and his teeth might not be perfect, but I help by cutting all of his dry kibbles in half, and he manages just fine. (We're seniors too)!! so we understand him. He has senior wet food (Hills, of course) in a tuna flavour, and he lets us know, morning and night, when he's ready for his meat!!! He likes to sleep on our bed, but he allows us to sleep there too, so that works out just fine. He is as bold as brass, but happy in his new home!!

We can't thank the foster family enough. He was already house trained when we brought him home which has made the adoption so much easier and an amazing experience for us as a family!

VANNA

Vanna is the best thing that has happened to me in a long time!!!  I recently purchased a walking wheel for her and she is catching on like a wee, little pro!

I find that she would accept all the attention I could give her plus more. I love it! She enjoys watching tv and plays herself out before falling fast asleep in some seemingly uncomfortable positions.

We talk all the time as she follows me everywhere like a puppy. We went on a little road trip and she was such a good girl! She fell asleep on the passenger seat once she had taken in all the sights! I am getting a proper harness for to take her on our car rides.

Vanna is great around other people too! She proved that as she was handled by 5 or 6 new people  yesterday when I went to my old work place to show her off.

I am totally smitten with this little sweetheart! Looking forward to all our adventures together! 

Where are you,

DAD?           

     I'm waiting!    

NOVA

Nova is doing great! Her and Norman are getting along really well. She's super cuddly!

Nova has started helping her people with their written school projects!

Maybe she will open shop as a tutor! Such a smart girl! 

We love her! 

Introducing!

BEAUTIFUL Mandy & HANDSOME Godfrey

In their forever home and

SO very happy!

Max is great! She's having lots of fun with toys and playing with my her new sibling (1.5 year old cat.) Max is a typical kitten following me around and curious about everything.  Max is super cute and cuddly (well cuddly when they aren’t running around playing)

She’s VERY sweet. Great personality. I am very happy to have adopted her!

POLAR

was ARCTIC

Polar is living with his forever family now! He now has his two very best "human friends" living with him ... well he actually lives with them! (whichever way you see it  ... it is a perfect match!)

This sweet little guy is very well cared for and loved SO MUCH! Happy life precious boy!

Enjoy all those sweet cuddles!

Tom and his orange brother Pip have a fairly typical sibling relationship - friends one minute and squabbling the next. We hope the friendship grows and the squabbling becomes rarer. 
Megan (Gabe's mom and Tom's grandma) 

 TOFU

was Amina

Tofu (Amina) is a very sweet and curious cat!  She has been somewhat shy over the last month but warming up, slowly but surely. She found a nice hiding spot under the couch she likes to chill in but she’s been eating well, drinking water, playing, exploring and slowly getting more comfortable with us being there at the same time. 

                                 ROXY 

                                                                               was Rhoda

We did rename her Roxy and she has adjusted really well, making herself very comfortable at home with us and our kids who  absolutely adore her. She is the sweetest girl! We love her already like another member of our family. Roxy’s been in good health and gaining weight. She went to her first groomer apt recently and had the works ... full 5-star treatment! Roxy is super playful!

JUNO & SCOUT 

were Fancy & Bryce       

These 2 have officially taken over the house, our routines, and any sense of personal space we once had. We no longer live here—they do. We just pay the bills.

Juno has evolved into what we now call a “Spicy Taco Kitty.” She is pure chaos wrapped in affection. Constant zoomies, tunnel enthusiast, feather assassin, and professional roughhouser. When she gets really fired up, she lets out this tiny little growl like she’s a ferocious jungle predator… trapped in a kitten’s body. It’s adorable. She’s also become incredibly cuddly—her favourite activity is sleeping on my wife like a weighted blanket with attitude. 

Scout, on the other hand, is an absolute unit in the making. We lovingly refer to her as “Garbage Toilet Kitty” because apparently fresh water is overrated when you can drink from the toilet like a raccoon with confidence. She’s also taken a strong interest in counter-surfing, butter-licking, and general food crimes. When she crashes, though, she goes full cartoon mode—tongue sticking out, snoring like a grown man after Thanksgiving dinner. Despite all that, she’s incredibly gentle and loves wrestling with Juno like it’s a WWE main event.

Juno is definitely the overachiever—already playing fetch, using the scratching post like a pro, and working the treat system like she’s got a union contract. Scout prefers a more… freestyle lifestyle. Balls, especially super bouncy ones, are her obsession—she’ll chase them across the house like she’s training for the Olympics.

Physically, it’s shaping up to be quite the contrast:

Juno = sleek, slender, elegant, gazelle vibes.

Scout = absolute tank, built like a linebacker, probably bench pressing furniture by next month.

All in all, they’ve turned into amazing cats with huge personalities, and we couldn’t be happier.

TINKER

                                                                                was Jones

Tinker is settling in well. He is very cuddly.
He is very vocal and loud at times even though he’s been fed etc.

I’m not sure what to do about that. I hope he will quieten down once he’s happy to be here.
Love my new kitty!

We think Tinker is just chatty because he's telling his new mom how much he loves her and telling her how happy he is to be with her forever! 

Introducing the very sweet and beautiful ...

BELLA       

                                               was Razzel

LILY

                                                                      was Pancake

Our Lily is wonderful. Never a dull moment. The picture of her laying down my legs is her favourite position in the evening. She is very social not skittish with anyone. Not even getting her claws clipped. We have a candy dish with her a lid and it is extremely hard to get a candy out of it without her hearing. She wants to play with the wrapper. She hides it then brings it back out plays with it for days. We enjoy her a lot. 

DORY & FLYNN

now Dory & Mango   

Dory and Flynn( his new name) are doing amazing!

We love them so much! They are in their forever home for sure and you can surely tell that they are happy to be "home"!

MAGIC 

was Mini

Mini is doing amazing and as a bonus ... she is fitting in great with my other kitties!

She’s so affectionate and lovey and just loves to cuddle. I’m so glad that I have her!

We renamed her Magic!

Lucy will wake me up if one bowl is just about empty lol. She has 2 bowls in different spots in the house, she eats wet food at night, dry is always out... has a lickable every morning, cat milk , choice of treats. My husband says she has more toys, scratching posts, and warm beds than multiple cats need. She has gained some weight, but I think she is happy.

We love our Lucy!

                PENNY

                                       new Alana

The BEAUTIFUL 

MARLEY 

was Marmalade

She is doing great!   Marley is adorable and is fitting in with her brothers!

Now in her forever home and SO very happy!

WIZ

Wiz is just adorable!  Not sure where he got that   bowtie but he's kicking it like he was born to wear one! We have had a very busy year but Wiz has made himself home and is very much a part of the family!  Growing up alongside our 11 month old has been very fun for my kiddos. He’s grown so much!
We are very grateful that he came into our life!

                    MARLEY        

Marley is doing great playing in the trampoline. She has become a wonderful part of our family.

                             We love her!

                              GIGI                         

                                                                    was Gladys

Gladys is doing amazing!

She goes by Gigi now like her initials GG (Gladys Glazier) so we've kept her name in a way.
She really came out of her shell after about 2-3 weeks. We even recently moved and she adjusted very quickly to the new house. 
She's a very frisky and snuggly girl. She sleeps and cuddles with us every night. 
She also gets along great with our 1 year old Florence. Florence loves her very much and gives her full body hugs and snuggles.   
We're very happy with her, she's an amazing cat and addition to our family.

TEDDY, PEPPE, AND HENRY (THE OG) 

THE THREE AMIGOS

This girl is a real gem. She is entertaining and so loving and affectionate. I bought her a catio so she can safely enjoy the apt. balcony when I am sitting outside.  She loves it so much. She has started to sit in front of her container and if it is beside me she will actually tap my arm or hand and tap the treat jug right after. Hoping to catch that on video. Anyhow she is growing and thriving. 

GANDALF

was Grey Wolf

Gandalf the Grey Wolf ...  is doing great!

We felt it wasn't right to take his name away so we just extended it. 
Gandalf has taken well to his new home.

He loves his toys and his cat climbers and scratchers. 

Most of all he loves dinner time (which is all the time, and he'll make sure you know it).

 MAX 

Max is doing great and settling in really well.
He’s spunky, full of energy and curiosity, and already such a great cuddle buddy.

Max has been an amazing addition to our
family and we’re absolutely in love with him.
We’re so grateful to you and the ARK team for everything you do and for bringing Max into our lives. 

Thanks again for all the love you put into saving these little lives.

Lainey

                                                                was Katrina

Lainey is settling in very well! 

She is never far from her big sister Liv (also adopted from ARK) and always full of energy! Just like her sister she comes when called and always has lots of purrs to share and loves to cuddle under a blanket. She must have been a pro wrestler in another life... they are never bored while I am away at work and always keep each other busy! The best part of my day is being greeted at the door by them when I get back from work ... so cute!

NUGGET

was Aberforth

Nugget is the sweetest boy who loves his big brother and two older sisters, he is still warming up to the dogs. He loves napping and playing with his cat siblings as well as cuddling up to his human mom and playing fetch with his dad. Nugget loves his tube toys and is very food driven. Nugget has been a perfect fit to our family and we’re looking forward to watching him grow. We’re looking forward to spring to see how Nugget will react looking out the window with all the birds and squirrels that come by. Thank you for all you do with helping cats in need and helping them find their forever home. 

       BONNIE & CLYDE                                             

                                        were Fog & Mist

This precious brother and sister were adopted in November 2025.  Now in their forever home; Bonnie & Clyde's new family had these comments to share with us!

Fog and Mist now Bonnie and Clyde have settled in and taken over the house!

There is no shortage of entertainment here watching them play endlessly. Here are some pics and thank you all for our new additions to our family. 

                   BIRDIE                      

                                                 was Nellie

We renamed her to Birdie, because of her adorable chirpy meow!
It's taken her time to settle in with us but she's the perfect fit for our strange little family. Her and her brother get on wonderfully; they love to play and chase each other around our apartment. I think her favorite activity is napping under as many blankets as possible.
She's definitely come out of her shell and she's the strangest looking cat I've ever had the pleasure of owning. Im so glad we adopted her. Our other cat and Birdie also get along AND PLAY well TOGETHER AND with our dogs!

BIRDIE Is super friendly with everyone she meets, loves playing fetch and when she’s ready to cuddle, she’s a purr machine!  

                     BUDDY                       

                                                   was Bandit

This gorgeous little guy was adopted in November 2025.  Now in his  forever home; Buddy's new family had these comments to share with us!

We just call him little dude or Buddy right now lol. We are torn between Pebble, Pebbles or Bullet. 

He is settled in very well and he’s adorable. Still have yet to see him go after bubbles but we keep trying. He is the biggest snuggle bug. 

      LENNIE & MACARONI         

... were Wally & Marty             

These gorgeous brothers are now in their forever home and very content. They have very obviously found their forever paradise!

I asked their new mom and big brother how they tell the boys apart ... This is what she shared.

Lennie's nose is the lighter and Macaroni's is darker! Also Lennie's ears are bigger and a bit pointier.  Lennie also has heterchromia! The inside ring of his iris is a different color than the outside. So cool!

Lennie's facial expressions and Macaroni's funny gestures always keeping us laughing!

My son and I love them and the feeling seems very mutual!

They are a full time show, all the time. 

 LADY

                                                     was Willow

Willow's new name is Lady! She loves to stretch out and lounge on the bed with my other cat, MOO. Lady is super affectionate and loves to be involved in everything I do! She immediately starts purring when you speak to her! We love her!

TANGO

Tango is thriving and has made our family whole! We love him!

We recently moved and he had his first vet visit for his updated shots. During the vet visit it was so funny! Tango climbed up on the desk and made himself at home. The vet was so pleasantly surprised as to how content and happy he was!

Our vet fell in love with him as well! Of course! Who wouldn't!
