Tara's Bio

Meowllo, friends. My name is Tara, like Buddhist Tara, and I am in search of my furever home!

My foster family and the volunteers at Pets Alive Niagara often tell me that I am a very lucky little lady.  After being rescued from a backyard in Welland, I was very sick. Thankfully, some very nice humans took care of me, and I am now fully recovered from panleukopenia - a very aggressive and sometimes fatal disease brought on by infection from the feline parvovirus. Needless to say, I have used up 1 of my 9 lives.

I have grown into a wonderful, gentle kitten who enjoys giving love as much as receiving it.My favourite place to take my afternoon naps is my human’s lap, but I’ll also settle for a big pile of blankets on the bed, or in the sunshine. Somewhere warm and cozy is what I am after!

I do everything with grace and elegance, whether it is eating my food or getting up from sleep with a stretch, I do it all like a little princess. 

For the most part, I am a very calm and quiet cat, but once in a while, I will squeak at you - just to get your attention. You may mistake me for a door if you’re not paying attention! Like my siblings, I can make almost anything that falls onto the floor into a game. 

My ideal home is one with a loving family that is able to remind me of just how lucky I am to be alive and healthy. One with a feline friend to play and snuggle with would be preferable, too! 

I can’t wait to make some new friends in my life adventure! Where will I go next?

Tara's Adoption Fee | $149.00

The feline adoption fees help cover the costs associated with rescuing, such as vetting, food, kitty litter and other expenses.

Prior to adoption, cats are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed and given flea treatment. In short, they receive any necessary treatment. 

For more information about adoption fees, please review our Adoption FAQs & Fees page. Alternatively, you can email us and communicate with our Adoption Coordinator.

Why We Love Fostering

  • I grew up in an apartment where no pets were allowed. When I met my husband, he had a beautiful boy cat named Webster. He was such a good boy, he was so sweet and always sat between my legs. I treated him like my own. I had never felt the unconditional love that he gave me. When he passed away, I decided I wanted to give my love to cats unconditionally. My husband and my daughter agreed to be a foster family for kitties who needed help. I can't imagine a life or a home without cats in it.
