How do I adopt a cat in Ontario?

Browse the listings above, find a cat you connect with, and apply through the rescue that lists them. LocalPetFinder aggregates adoptable cats from rescues across Ontario so you can compare them in one place, but each adoption is handled directly by the rescue.

Is LocalPetFinder a shelter?

No. LocalPetFinder is a free aggregator. We collect listings from local rescues and shelters into one searchable place. Applications and adoptions are always completed through the rescue that lists the cat.

How often are listings updated?

Listings are refreshed regularly from the rescues we track, so adopted cats drop off and new cats appear without you needing to check each rescue's website individually.
