Adopting a white cat in Quebec

White is the third most common colouring recorded in Quebec rescue, ahead of tuxedo and orange. It ranges from cats that are entirely white to cats with a few coloured markings that the description still leads with as white.

In Quebec listings this colouring is usually written as « chat blanc », which is worth knowing if you are searching a shelter's own site. Most of the cats on this page come from Montreal organizations, simply because they are the ones that describe a cat's markings in writing; several Quebec shelters list a cat with no physical description at all. If this list looks short, browse the full Quebec cat listings rather than concluding these cats are not available elsewhere in the province.

Two things worth asking about

Deafness is more common in white cats than in cats generally, particularly in white cats with blue eyes, and more so again when both eyes are blue. A deaf cat makes a perfectly good companion in an indoor home, which is the Quebec norm anyway, but it is worth knowing before you adopt rather than after. Ask the rescue directly whether the cat has been observed responding to sound.

A very pale coat also offers less protection from sun on ears and nose. That matters less for an indoor cat, but if yours will spend long stretches in a sunny window in summer, it is worth mentioning to your vet at the first visit rather than assuming an indoor cat has no exposure at all.

The rescues that most often list White Cats across the province are Chatons Orphelins Montréal. For breed-specific background, the Canadian Cat Association is a useful reference.

How many White Cats are available for adoption in Quebec?▼
As of November 2026, 143 White Cats are available for adoption in Quebec across 8 rescues on LocalPetFinder. Listings update regularly as cats are adopted and new ones arrive — browse the current White Cats above and apply directly through the rescue.
Where can I adopt a white cat near me in Quebec?▼
LocalPetFinder gathers adoptable white cats from the Quebec rescue organizations we cover, most of them Montreal-area, into one list. Listings refresh regularly and each profile links straight to the organization so you apply directly with them. Colour comes from each rescue's own description, so it is worth checking the full Quebec listings too.
Are white cats often deaf?▼
More often than cats in general, and the association is strongest in white cats with blue eyes, especially when both eyes are blue. Plenty of white cats hear perfectly well. Ask the rescue whether anyone has noticed the cat responding to sound, since a foster living with the cat will usually know. A deaf cat does very well in the indoor home most Quebec rescues place cats into.
Why do fewer cats show a colour than a breed?▼
Because colour is not a field most shelters fill in. We read it from the written description, so a cat whose write-up never mentions its markings will not appear on a colour page even though it may well be that colour. Several Quebec shelters publish no physical description at all, and a few publish no description whatsoever, so their cats are under-represented on these pages. A short list is a limit of the source listings, not a shortage of cats.
How much does it cost to adopt a White Cat in Quebec?▼
Adopting a White Cat in Quebec typically costs $100 to $350, and kittens usually carry a premium at $175 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. Colour is not a breed, so there is no breeder route to this coat specifically, and the fee reflects the cat's age and the veterinary work already done rather than its markings. 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 white cats for sale in Quebec?▼
Not for sale, for adoption, which is usually the better deal. Every white cat here comes from a Quebec rescue or shelter, not a breeder, pet store, or classified seller. Adoption fees are typically $150 to $500 and already include vaccinations, deworming, microchip and spay or neuter when age-appropriate, versus roughly well over $1,000 to buy a white cat from a breeder. If you searched "white cat for sale quebec" or "white kittens for sale," adopting gets you a healthy, vetted cat for a fraction of the price.
Are there free white cats in Quebec, or white cats under $500?▼
Adoption is the closest honest answer, and it is not free. A rescue white cat in Quebec typically costs $150 to $500. What the fee buys is work already done, the vaccinations, deworming, microchip and spay or neuter, which would cost more than the fee itself if you arranged it yourself, and it is still far below breeder prices. Be wary of genuinely free white cat listings. An animal advertised free to a good home has usually not been vetted, and free rehoming ads are the route flippers and unregistered breeders use to move animals with no health guarantee and no recourse. Paying a rescue fee buys you a cat someone has already examined, treated, and been honest with you about.
Are there white kittens in Quebec, or only adults?▼
Both, but adults far outnumber kittens, and it is worth knowing that before you start looking. Most white cats arriving in Quebec rescue are adolescents and adults, because that is the age at which first homes tend to give up. Kittens do come through, usually as accidental litters or with a surrendered mother, and they are typically spoken for quickly. Setting an alert beats refreshing the page. It is also worth asking whether you actually want one: an adult arrives with a temperament a foster has already observed and described, where a white kitten is a prediction, and for this colour in particular knowing what you are getting is the more useful thing.
Where can I find a white cat near me in Quebec?▼
Start with the listings on this page, which pull from Quebec rescues and shelters and are refreshed regularly, so what you see is what is genuinely available rather than a stale directory. If nothing suits today, that is normal for this colour: rescue intake is intermittent rather than steady, and a colour with none listed this week often has several next month. Setting an alert beats checking back, and it is worth widening to nearby towns, since most rescues serving Quebec will adopt out across a reasonable driving distance rather than only inside one municipality.
