About Toru

Meowllo! My name is Toru (pronounced TOW-roo), and I am in search of my furever home.

The meaning of my name is “small tree” and it originates from Māori, the Indigenous Polynesian people of mainland New Zealand (Aotearoa). I think it suits me. I make life better, not because I produce oxygen like a tree, but because I produce hugs and purrs!

I live with my 6 siblings, and boy do some of them have big purrsonalities! It can be difficult to match their characters, so I can be a bit shy at times. When I come out of my shell, though, I muscle them out of the way so I can get bum scratches. Those are my absolute favourite!

Surprisingly, I do not match the energy and chaos of the average orange cat. I am very calm and would rather hangout with you than cause mischief.

I would thrive in a home that is quieter, but not *too* quiet. Older children would be best for me, as a loud environment may overwhelm me, and I would enjoy having a feline friend to hangout with. 

If you are interested in adopting me, you can fill out an application below!


Toru'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

  • We love fostering because the dogs bring so much love and joy into our home. Seeing them adjust to life in a home, come out of their shells and become their happy, playful selves is so rewarding. It's also a great feeling so see them got adopted by a home that will love them forever. The foster dogs also have a lot to teach us about resilience, adaptability, trust and unconditional love. They inspire us to be better versions of ourselves. If they can survive their histories while still being loving and happy, so can we.
