Meet Spud and Russet, our potato-themed kittens!

This dynamic brother-sister duo was born on May 20, 2025, and they’re everything you could want in a kitten pair - playful, outgoing, affectionate, curious, and always up for mischief (or a nap in the sun).

These two are the last ones left from their litter - their siblings Small Fry and Tater were scooped up before we even had a chance to post (congrats to them and their new families!). Now it’s Spud and Russet’s turn to find their perfect match 💛

They’ve had their first set of vaccinations, are fully dewormed, and are ready for foster-to-adopt. Once they’re a bit bigger, we’ll take care of their spay/neuter surgeries too.

Meet this lovely boy, Miller🖤
Please share to help find Miller's forever home!

Miller is a sweet, shy soul who finds comfort in the quiet moments. He prefers to sit back and observe the world around him, taking everything in with thoughtful eyes. Though he may be reserved at first, Miller enjoys soft pets and cozy snuggles once he feels safe. He’s the perfect companion for a calm, relaxed home where he can unwind and be himself. With a little patience and a lot of love, Miller will become your quiet, loyal snuggle buddy for life.

Miller's adoption fee has been paid for by the person who rescued him :)

Miller is up to date on all vaccinations, microchipped, neutered, and dewormed. To fill out an application for Miller, please visit our website at https://thekenoracatshelter.com

🎉 A huge THANK YOU to everyone who came out to celebrate Wispy’s 17th birthday! 🎉

The Kenora Cat Shelter is so grateful for the love, support, and incredible sense of community we felt at the party. It was such a great turnout and our sweet senior girl Wispy had the best time visiting with all her fans, soaking up the attention (and maybe a few too many treats 😉).

Events like this remind us how lucky we are to be surrounded by people who care so deeply about the cats in our care. Thank you for making Wispy’s day so special and for continuing to support what we do. 💛🐾

🎉 HUGE NEWS from the Kenora Cat Shelter! 🎉

After years of hard work, dedication, and community support, we’re officially a registered charity! 🐾💛

This means we now have charitable status, which allows us to provide tax receipts for eligible donations. This is a huge step forward for our small but mighty shelter, and it will make a big difference in our ability to care for the cats who need us most.

We are a completely donation-run organization, and this new status will help us grow, improve, and continue our mission of rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming cats in need.

Thank you to everyone who has supported us on this journey - we truly couldn't have done it without your help. Here's to the next chapter!! 🐱✨

Special Kitty Saturday featuring our favourite girl, Juliette💞
Please share to help find Juliette's forever home!

Juliette is such a loveable cat. She is super playful and loves chasing after toys. She is full of energy and loves to explore. She gets along great with other cats and dogs once introduced properly. Juliette is very affectionate and enjoys a good snuggle. She purrs so loud and gives kisses. Juliette loves treats and is very food motivated! This sweet girl can’t wait to find her people.

Juliette is one of our special needs cats. She is on daily medication (fluoxetine) to reduce stress, and urinary food as she was diagnosed with feline idiopathic cystitis. When she came to the shelter, she was suffering from a kidney infection caused by a severe untreated urinary infection. Juliette will need to continue on fluoxetine and urinary food for the rest of her life. Juliette will require a home that can provide regular veterinary care for her, and routine wellness visits to ensure her urine infections remain clear.

Juliette is up to date on all vaccinations, microchipped, spayed, and dewormed. To fill out an application for Juliette, please visit our website at https://thekenoracatshelter.com

Is anyone interested in live music this weekend? Want to be down on the Harbourfront enjoying Shawn Desman and Fefe Dobson along with many other incredible singers?

We have been given the opportunity to volunteer at Shake On The Lake this weekend and need a few more people tomorrow night to help collect the empties.

ALL OF THE PROCEEDS will go directly to the shelter and boy do we need it!

With 95 cats in our care, we are bursting at the seams with cats. We need these kinds of events so we can continue to do our work saving cats. The calls are coming in daily.

Please message our page if you can help out for a few hours or more. Thank you for your support!
