Côte Saint-Luc Cat Trap Neuter Return Program

Thanks to my ‘Friday night dates’: Malka Labow, Dafna Regenstreif, Malka’s son-in-law, Simon F. homeowner Elyse and her darling daughter Sadie, we were able to trap this little guy tonight.
Almost certainly a sibling to Darwin and Einstein, who we trapped around 10/12 days ago.
There may be another kitten out there and hopefully we will get him along with the Mom.
Quite a set of lungs on this kitten but she/he will have a much better life now.

I have cats for adoption.
EVERY rescue has cats for adoption.
But, if you feel our adoption fees are too high, that’s OK…
Please go to the SPCA and find your new best friend.
They have lowered their adoption fees for cats 1 year and older and there are so many wonderful cats available.

UPDATE!! (As per Nancy-Ann Michaud)

Mini is with Refuge Kitty-Kat rescue and in a foster home with A/c!
thanks to our volunteers Fiona & Violet who dropped everything to go save Mini this morning
Mini is in good hands and seeing a vet Monday.
🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾
This is truly wonderful news!
🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾🫁🐾🐾❤️🐾❤️🐾

Is there anyone that can take in this poor cat?
I don’t have any fosters for the ones I have recently rescued so I’m really not in a position to help.
If you can help, please contact the original poster. Their name is at the top of the post.

(Un)fun Fact:

IF You bring a male cat into your house and neglect to get it neutered and:

IF you have an unspayed female:

You WILL end up with kittens.

I’m not sure when this became ‘new information’ but..here we are.

So:

Looking for fosters for 1 adult male about one year-old, going in to the vet today but, may not be neutered until next week.

Female going in ASAP.

3 Kittens, approximately three months old.

Message me if you can help. Food and most other supplies will be provided.

UPDATE:

Found the owner.
A ‘free roaming’ cat who has lost his collar.🤷🏻‍♀️
He will go home in his own time.

Hello CSL:

This friendly cat spotted on Einstein between Kildare and Guelph.

No collar.

They will be brought to the Cote Saint luc Animal Hospital to check for a microchip.

Residents are once AGAIN reminded that while you are allowed to let your cat ‘free roam’…. They must have a collar and be microchipped.

You take a huge chance that your cat will be hit by a car or worse… But I can’t change the bylaw.

There are several very good and inexpensive breakaway collars on the market… Use them and replace them as necessary.

To:

Residents of Cote St. Luc who are feeding outdoor cats that are part of our TNRM program.

Please take note that, if you’re feeding outdoor cats that have been TNR’ed, you must be mindful of putting your cats on a feeding schedule.

If you are feeding them twice a day, you can put out the food in the morning at around 5 to 6 AM and bring it back an hour later.

In the evening: same thing. Put the food out before sundown and bring it back inside an hour or so later.

Outdoor TNRM cats CAN and MUST be trained to come at these designated times.

While there have not been a LOT of complaints  regarding the feeding of outdoor cats… When the food is left out all the time it does attract other urban animals… Groundhogs, raccoons, skunks, squirrels, etc.

AND YES, there has been a complaint and PUBLIC SECURITY is now involved.

You CANNOT leave the food out all day.

PLEASE DO NOT JEOPARDIZE OUR PROGRAM BY NOT FOLLOWING THESE GUIDELINES REGARDING THE FEEDING OF OUTDOOR TNR CATS.

UPDATE:
Little ‘Einstein’ has been spoken for.
Thank you, everyone!
🐈❤️🐾🐈❤️🐾🐈❤️🐾🐈❤️🐾

Hello All:

Meet ‘Einstein’, an approximately seven week old kitten available for adoption.

He was found outside alone, although I’ve been told that an adult cat was found deceased nearby that may have been his mother.
😿😿😿😿😿😿😿😿😿😿😿😿😿

It’s a miracle he was found when he was because I don’t see such a tiny kitten surviving for long outside in this weather.

🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾

Einstein is bright-eyed, healthy, inquisitive and playful.

He’s eating and drinking well and, of course, using the litter (as most kittens do intuitively).

Adoption fee is $375 and includes:

1. Base vaccination, which he has just recently received.
2. Booster vaccination in 3 to 4 weeks.
3. Full deworming protocol
4. Revolution.
5. Neutering at 4-5 months.
6. Microchip at time of neutering.

The adopter must commit to keeping Einstein safely inside with appropriate stimulation.
Safe catios are permissible.

There will be a home visit for his safety.

Children under the age of 7-8 are not advisable for such a small kitten… but not ruled out as long as they are properly supervised.

🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈🐈

He has not been tested with dogs but, at this age, I presume he will get along with just about anybody. (Under supervision).

Priority will be given to people who already have another cat (or two) at home.

Cats can easily live to 16 to 18+ years old so if you can provide Einstein a safe, comfortable, and loving permanent home, please contact me.

He will be available in around 10 days.

My little cat Shadow ran away from home this morning (around 7 o'clock) and hasn't come back yet. If you've seen him anywhere, please let me know. He's been hungry and thirsty since this morning.
Thank you so much!
