Update ~ Gizmo has been adopted 💙💙

Meet Gizmo!
Gizmo is a strikingly handsome, healthy, and neutered 10-month-old boy who’s ready to find his forever home! This sweet, affectionate kitty is fully litter trained and absolutely loves cuddle time.
Gizmo would thrive in a home with a playful feline companion, as he enjoys the company of other cats. He can be a bit shy around dogs—especially active ones—and tends to hide when they’re nearby, so a dog-free or calm canine household would be ideal for him.
He comes with a clean bill of health, is fully vaccinated, and has tested negative for FIV/FeLV.
If you’re ready to welcome this lovable guy into your heart and home, please email [email protected] to apply!

📣 Big News from Friends of Ferals – We're Building a Shelter in Digby! 🐾

We’re so excited to share that Friends of Ferals is finally building a permanent shelter right here in the Town of Digby!

After years of housing unwanted, abandoned, and feral cats (including litters of kittens) in our own homes—and losing access to the Siesta space we used last spring to fall—this shelter is a much-needed step forward. But we can’t do it without your help.

We're currently looking for:

A General Contractor to oversee the build

Licensed electricians, plumbers, and other tradespeople

Volunteers of all skill levels who are willing to lend a hand

Discounted quotes or donated services to help us keep costs down

This is a huge undertaking for our small team of volunteers, and we’re asking the Town and Municipality of Digby, along with local businesses and community members, to support us in making this shelter a reality.

💬 If you can donate your time, quote on work, or assist with a specific task, we’d love to hear from you!
📅 We hope to break ground by mid-to-late June, depending on permits and availability of the General Contractor and tradespeople.
📧 Contact us at: [email protected] - Please send quotes here.
📧 Please send donations to: [email protected]
📞 Or call: 902-452-8451

🙏 Thank you for helping us give these fur babies the safe, warm shelter they deserve.

Miracles can happen 🤗. Never lose hope.

A family reached out to us on the off-chance Scout might be their missing cat who disappeared two years ago. They just came by tonight to see if it’s possible Scout is their kitty, and we are more than sure he belongs to their family.  The question of the day is…how did he get so far? It’s very possible he hitched a ride in a friend‘s truck that took him to Smiths Cove by accident.

After a few minutes of meeting him, Scout came forward and sat by them. His reaction was very telling. He began licking and purring.

They are aware of the FIV diagnosis, and will take precautions. They will begin planning to build a catio so he can enjoy the outside air as he has been for the last two years, so no more wandering for this boy! 

Thank you to everyone who was rooting for Scout, sharing his post, and those of you who were interested in providing him a home. This story has helped us all realize how good people truly are. Scout…now back to being George… thanks everyone for their love and concern. 

We wish George/Scout and his family all the best ❤️❤️

Scout has been in foster care for one week and is a poster boy for the perfect guest!

He feels so much better after being neutered and having all the knots and mats removed from him. He was in pain from the tightening of those knots on his skin. Now he is enjoying domesticity! He knows he is safe, that he gets regular food, and lots of belly rubs!

We have discovered there is not one mean bone in his body. While he doesn’t have all his teeth, he certainly doesn’t use what he has on people in aggression. Nor has he ever scratched anyone in the foster home either. He is a big giant teddy bear who just wants to be loved.

During the day, he is brought from his bedroom into a large cage in the common area. He is getting used to having all the cats around him, even though they can’t interact. He can see them and has not been phased by them.

If this 3 to 5 year-old male ginger boy peaks your interest, please email [email protected] for an application to adopt. He will be a very loyal companion. While he is an FIV positive kitty, that is not a problem. He is not on any medication, is very solid and healthy, and would love to have a warm lap to sit in, and a window to look out. This boy is not high maintenance in any way. He’s very clean, uses his litter box, and eats all his food.

** Update: his owners were Found! **

We have a special rescue cat to introduce!

Scout is a male ginger between 3 and 5 years old. His story is a rough one as he spent at least one Nova Scotia winter outside, if not more, fending for himself. Last year he was spotted in the backyard of a Smiths Cove resident, and all attempts to trap at that time failed. He was spotted again a few weeks ago and based on his appearance, it was urgent he was rescued.

It was only on the second day of setting up the live trap, he finally went in! And it turns out he is not feral at all, but in fact, a sweet, loving, friendly boy. Because he has long hair, the amount of mats all over his body was concerning. He was also covered in fleas. He has now been treated for parasites and fleas and ticks and his fur is now smooth and will become even more beautiful the healthier he gets.

Today he was neutered, vaccinated, and Snap tested. The results came back FIV positive but negative for FELV. This does not mean his diagnosis is a death sentence. It means he has a compromised immune system, and a possibility of a shorter lifespan than most other kitties. With proper veterinarian care, good food, lots of love and TLC, Scout can live a good quality life for many years.

His ideal adopter won’t have other cats, or perhaps another cat with FIV. However, because this boy had such a rough life, we believe he should be the only kitty in the house so he can receive all the love and attention that he deserves.

If you seek a companion kitty who can remain an indoor cat, please consider Scout. You won’t be disappointed. Especially if you bring out the brush and groom him! Never have I seen a kitty enjoy being brushed so much. His purring is musical.

Please consider bringing Scout into your home and provide him the love he so desperately needs. Email [email protected] for an application.

UPDATE- ADOPTED

Located in Digby

If you are looking for a sweet, loving companion, consider this special girl. Bangle’s foster mum says she loves to play, enjoys snacks, is great with the resident dog and other kitties. She has very soft fur, enjoys her evening snuggles and pets especially at bedtime. Still a bit shy of sudden noises, Bangle would thrive in a kind and patient forever home. She would love to cuddle and perhaps even sleep on your bed. Best as an inside kitty, Bangle is spayed and vaccinated, tested negative for feline aids and feline leukemia, and is parasite free. For more information, email [email protected] for an application or to meet Bangle.

Hey there, I'm Bangle, a sneaky little feline ninja, approximately 9 months old, with a slender physique. I'm a bit of a wallflower around new people, but give me some time and a ribbon wand to play with, and I'll be eating out of your hand. My cat friends here are the best, and the two dogs are cool, too - they haven't tried to turn me into a snack yet. What I'm looking for is a chill pad, where I can take my time and get comfy. Loud noises freak me out, but my foster mom keeps telling me I'm okay, and I'm learning to scope things out before I freak. On the plus side, I've been spayed, so no surprise kittens, and the vet says I'm healthier than a horse. Well, an ox, actually

Nugget has been adopted
❤️❤️❤️

Hello, my name is Nugget, but you can call me Tiny Dancer due to my compact feline frame. My foster mom gave me this nickname because, well, I'm a bit of a peanut. I've learned to chill with other cats and even dogs, once I've had a chance to scope them out.

Before Friends of Feral, I lived in a barn now I'm looking for a forever home where I can take things at my own pace. Don't worry, I've been spayed, so no surprise kittens on the horizon. My vet says I'm in top shape, except for being a bit clumsy - but hey, that's just part of my charm. I love to play, get pampered with paw massages, and even enjoy a good brushing. I'm a purrfectly adorable, laid-back kitty looking for a calm and gentle home to call my own.
