Hi Donna, Sylvester has been renamed Arthur Fonzarelli aka Fonzie. I figured he was so cool he needed a cool name and Madison couldn’t pronounce Sylvester! He’s doing well cuddling with all of us and still sleeping with Madison for a bit each night. Ruby is quite scary to him. We had them meet yesterday […]

Hi Donna, I hope you are doing well.  Hobbes (aka Rascal) is slowly coming around and he’s wonderful.  The two of them aren’t getting along the great yet. My first cat is still a little intimidated, but they aren’t totally afraid of each other.  Here is a picture of the two of them the closest […]

Hi Donna! Just wanted to give you an update on sweet Peaches who we took home last weekend. She seems to be completely at home, we have marveled at how easily she has settled right in! She is loving and playful and loves to have some serious snuggle time in the mornings. She didn’t make […]

Two weeks ago, myself and two sons went to North Toronto Cat Rescue to find out newest family member (we all agreed and have been insistent for months). We went through all the rooms on the main floor and my eldest teen kept his hands in his pockets and would not pet any cat (much […]

Hi Donna and everyone at NTCR! I just wanted to give you a long over due update of our beautiful girl we adopted over a year ago, Mackenzie. She is doing wonderfully and has changed so much from when we first got her! She was very nervous and shy when we first brought her home […]

Hi Donna, I just wanted to let you know how Molly is doing on her first day. She did so well. She didn’t leave the carrier for about a hour she let me pet her the entire time. She would then go onto my bed go on the floor then come right back to the […]

Hi Donna, Thank you so much for your card. Glad to be able to contribute to all of the great work that you all do. Here are some pictures of Cali (nee Toffee). As you may remember, she loved to sit by the window and stare at birds, squirrels and passing cars. What you may […]

Hi Donna, Hope you are doing well. I wanted to share the attached picture collage with you of Romeo and Jasper.  One year ago I adopted them from your shelter and I wanted you to know how grateful I am that they came into my life.  I remember you telling me that two really aren’t […]

Hi Donna, So sorry I took so long with this email, I just wanted to make sure Tramp was settled in first. The first few days he was very timid and just wanted to hide behind my toilet. After that he started being more friendly towards me and started playing and interacting with me. Now […]

Hi Donna, Murphy is doing well. She’s a healthy as well as beautiful girl. I attached a photo from when she was lounging beside me. Also as promised I was hoping to drop by the shelter next weekend to play with kitties. They’re so irresistible! ~ Evelin   << BACK to Love Letters

Hi Donna, I’ve attached a couple photos of little Vinnie. He’s super snuggly and really enjoys napping and eating! We raised his food bowls up so he tends to stand up while he’s eating, but it’s so much easier for him to swallow. The first photo is him standing looking at me in the kitchen […]

Hi Donna, I hope all is well. Busy at the shelter I’m sure! I thought I’d include a few pictures of them, Rylie (Asia) and Ollie (Grover). They’re both doing great and get along really well together. They’re still bundles of energy and curious as ever! ~ Carolyn   << BACK to Love Letters

Dear Donna, This is Sarah, my mom and I adopted Jett in March and we wanted to let you know how things are going. The whole family loves Jett, she is very sweet and she is getting more comfortable with us every day. She is energetic, loves to play, and loves chicken!  Unfortunately I have some sad news about […]

Hi Donna, Here is an update from Aurora (who we often call Rora for short); she is doing very well! She loves the little cat nip mouse I got from you at the Unionville Festival. I honestly don’t think that she likes cat nip. I tried to give her lots of different things involving cat […]

Hi Donna, I was waiting time to take the photo of Raphael with me or with one of my grandchildren, but he still does not allow to touch him. We have big, but slow progress. He eats, uses his litter box  and does not hide from me and even from my friends. But he still […]

Hi Donna, We adopted Prince from you about a month ago and we can gladly say he made himself quite a home here. He was scared for the first few days and hid behind the couch and refused to eat. Slowly, but surely, he started to adapt to his new home and started playing around […]
