Grey is a colour, not a breed
Nearly every grey cat in New Brunswick rescue is a domestic shorthair or longhair with a solid blue-grey coat. Solid grey is a dilute of black, so it appears steadily rather than rarely, and most grey shelter cats here come out of the Maritime community-cat surplus rather than from any pedigree line.
The confusion worth settling is the Russian Blue. Grey shelter cats are frequently listed as Russian Blue mixes because that is the familiar reference point, but a true Russian Blue is uncommon in rescue and has a specific short, dense, silver-tipped double coat with green eyes. If the pedigree matters, ask what the identification rests on. Usually it is the coat colour and nothing more.
What the coat does not tell you
Anything useful about temperament. Coat colour is not a reliable predictor of personality in cats, so the questions worth your time are about history, age and how the cat behaved in the foster home.
Grey photographs better than solid black under shelter lighting, so these cats generally move faster. If one appeals, apply promptly rather than assuming it will still be listed next week.
Searching a three-city province
NB rescue is concentrated around P.A.W. in Moncton, the Saint John SPCA Animal Rescue and the Fredericton SPCA, with rural stretches in between and bilingual listings in Acadian and northern communities. Searching province-wide rather than by your own town matters here, and most groups will arrange a meet at the foster home.
Indoor living is the NB norm: hard Maritime winters, damp Bay of Fundy cold in Saint John, rural roads, and the community-cat population that makes outdoor life short. A longhaired grey needs brushing several times a week; a shorthaired one needs little.

Grey Cat Adoption FAQ — Fredericton
How many Grey Cats are available for adoption in Fredericton?
As of August 2026, there are no Grey Cats listed in Fredericton rescue on LocalPetFinder right now — Grey Cats are among the rarer cats in local rescue. Inventory turns over quickly, so setting an alert is the most reliable way to catch one, or consider an adoptable Grey Cat mix.
Where can I adopt a grey cat near me in New Brunswick?
LocalPetFinder gathers adoptable grey and silver cats from the New Brunswick rescues we cover, including P.A.W. in Moncton, the Saint John SPCA Animal Rescue and the Fredericton SPCA. Grey is a common colour, so there are usually several listed. NB is a small province with modest inventory, so search province-wide rather than by town.
Is a grey cat the same as a Russian Blue?
Usually not. Most grey cats in New Brunswick rescue are domestic shorthairs with a solid blue-grey coat, and shelters often list them as Russian Blue mixes because it is the nearest familiar name. A true Russian Blue has a distinctive short, dense, silver-tipped double coat and green eyes, and is genuinely uncommon in rescue. Ask what the identification is based on.
Does coat colour affect a cat personality?
No. There is no reliable link between coat colour and temperament in cats, so be sceptical of anyone who claims one. What actually predicts how a cat settles is its individual history, its age and how it behaved in foster care. Ask the foster what the cat is like with people, with other animals, and when left alone.
How much does it cost to adopt a Grey Cat in Fredericton?
Adopting a Grey Cat in Fredericton typically costs $100 to $300, and kittens usually carry a premium at $200 to $400. The exact fee varies by rescue, and older cats are often reduced. That fee is not a purchase price. It covers work already done on the cat: spay or neuter, vaccinations, deworming, microchip, and a basic vet workup, which would cost several hundred dollars more if you arranged it yourself after buying. Buying the same breed from a registered breeder generally runs well over $1,000, usually with a waitlist. Ask the rescue what is included before you apply, since a few include extras like a starter bag of food or a first-month insurance trial.
Are these Grey Cat cats for sale in Fredericton?
Not for sale, for adoption, which is usually the better deal. Every Grey Cat here comes from a Fredericton-area rescue or shelter, not a breeder, pet store, or classified seller. Adoption fees are typically $150 to $500 and already include spay or neuter, vaccinations, and a microchip, versus roughly $1,000 to $3,000+ to buy a Grey Cat from a breeder. If you searched "grey cat for sale Fredericton," adopting gets you a healthy, vetted cat for a fraction of the price.
Where can I buy a Grey Cat in Fredericton, and should I?
You can buy from a registered breeder, but it is worth weighing against adoption first. A reputable Grey Cat breeder typically charges $1,000 to $3,000+ and often has a waitlist, while a rescue Grey Cat costs $150 to $500 fully vetted and may be available now. Be cautious of cheap "for sale" ads on classified sites and marketplaces, which are frequently backyard breeders or kitten-mill resellers with unvetted, sometimes sick animals and no health guarantee. If you do buy, insist on seeing where the kittens were raised and getting vet records. For most Fredericton families, adopting a rescue Grey Cat is cheaper, faster, and gives a cat in need a home.
