Meet the Cats
At any given time, Catelowna is home to between 25 and 35 cats, and not all of them are represented in the list below. Sometimes adoption interest happens before we’ve had the chance to get to know a cat well enough to write a full profile, and other times cats may be with us for rehabilitation and aren’t quite at the adoptable stage yet—though with the right person, it can still be a perfect click. If you’re looking for a particular fit, we encourage you to visit so we can chat face to face and help guide you. Sometimes matches are even made before cats arrive in the lounge, which means you could get first dibs.

Tic & Tac
Male 1 yr old
DOGS - Yes KIDS - Yes CATS - No
We're double the cats, double the personality. Tic is confident, curious and a total "Dude Bro" - he thinks he's so macho…until you pet him! He melts instantly. He studies the other cats, copies their moves and will carry springs around like trophies. Also, he definitely knows what you do and don't want him to do. Me, Tac, am the yin to Tic's yan. I'm the shy, sweet and world-class baby. I love butt scratches and will gently head- bonk your hand for more. I've come far in learning to trust humans - now, I'm your couch buddy for life. To summarise our dynamic, Tac watches the game with you. Tis tries to play in it. Adopt us for the perfect mix of cuddle and chaos.

Winter
Female 1.5yrs
DOGS - Maybe KIDS - Maybe CATS - Maybe
I'm as pretty as I sound. No, I will not immediately fall into your arms. I like to keep a bit of mystery. I'm shy at first, but don't mistake that for anything other than excellent judgement. The cat lounge is a full-on circus, and while I tolerate my roommates, I'm more of a "quiet lounge, soft blanket, personal human" kind of girl. I'll give some spice if my boundaries are crossed. My sweet side is starting to break through as I've been coming out my shell. I like affection, I like calm, and I love knowing my space is safe. I've been spotted playing with wand toys, but then I remember I'm on security duty and retreat to my shelf to super- vise. I'm a girl who knows what she likes - and what I like is peace, comfort and a human to call my own. I'm waiting to blossom with you?

Twix & Pebbles
Female 9 months
DOGS - Yes KIDS - Yes CATS - Yes
Yeah - we are super cute. You may admire us. We'll wait. We're a package deal - a bonded sister duo, two halves of one very fabulous whole. Bathroom trip? Together. Nap? Together. Judging you softly from across the room? Absolutely together. We're cuddly, but in a refined kind of way. We enjoy cuddling, preferably in a sunbeam, looking impossibly cute while doing so. We also enjoy playtime, very much - chasing toys, having little zoomie moments and then immediately return to lounge mode - balance is important. We have big personalities; we just don't shout about it. We're not dramatic, not demanding- just perfectly matched pair of sweet, playful, low-key companions who will absolutely steal your heart.

Taka
Male 10 months
DOGS - Maybe KIDS - Yes CATS - Yes
Hi, I'm Taka - part cat, part fox, full-time gentle soul. I'm still figuring out what this whole 'world' thing is about. Think introvert dropped into an extrovert party…I'm doing my best, but I'd much rather be somewhere calm where I can actually hear my own thoughts. The good news? I'm learning. I've discovered play (wand toys = amazing), and I'm even starting to enjoy pets - like, "hey, this is actually pretty nice" kind of vibe. I've lived with other cats before, so I'd be good with a gentle, respectful buddy who won't expect me to the life of the party I'm more of a quiet companion…the kind of nice guy who just wants a safe space and a human to trust. Also, have you seen my tail??? It's magnificent. Very fox. Very important. I'm sweet, soft, slightly shy and ready to grow…with you?

Leilla
Female 2 yrs
DOGS - Maybe KIDS - Maybe CATS - Maybe
Yes, I'm fully grown. And yes, I will stay this adorable mini size forever. You're welcome. I'm the sweetest girl you could meet, just…a little sensitive. The cat lounge is basically a frat party, and I'm more of a cozy tea at home' kinda gal. I'd love a calm, quiet space where I can roam freely without dodging chaos goblins every five minutes. Once I feel safe? Oh, you're mine. I love humans - like, follow-you-around, soak-up- all-the-pets kinda love. I'll lean into your hand like it's my full-time job. But don't be fooled by my gentle vibe-I've got a playful side too. Feather wands? Springs? I will absolutely show you, my moves. Small, sweet, slightly shy…and so ready to be your whole heart.

Clyde & Clancy
Male 10 months
DOGS - Maybe KIDS - Yes CATS - Yes
We are the brotherly bandits: professional brothers and part-time chaos coordinators. Our origin story? Started out on the streets, captured at the tiny age of two months. After some time in foster care, we discovered the finer things in life: shoulder rides, couch lounging and humans who can provide snacks on demand. Moving to the café was a little overwhelming for us, but we're learning to trust again - and every day we get a little braver. Clyde is the outgoing one. He will bop your leg for petting time. No meeting required. Clancy is more of a "I'll need to run a background check first" kind of guy. But once you pass inspection? You're in. If your home could use double the mischief and double the love, we're ready for our next adventure.

Jinx
Female 2 yrs
DOGS - Yes KIDS - Yes CATS - Yes
Despite the name, I promise I'm nothing but good luck. I'm a calm, very sweet, serene little lady who prefers the finer things in life: quiet rooms, gentle pets and peaceful company. Think less choase, more zen cat energy. I've already done my time in the mom department (my little ones were at Catelowna last year - yes, I'm very proud). Now that they're off living their best life, I'm ready to enjoy a little me time. My dream home? Quiet, cozy and full of kind humans who appreciate a soft, affectionate companion. If you're looking for a gentle angel of a cat to bring calm and sweetness into your home, I might just be your girl.

Sassy and Skittles
DOGS - Maybe KIDS - Maybe CATS - Yes
Two sweet sisters desperate for our happily ever after! Hi, I'm Sassy - the gentle outgoing one, a certified love muffin and professional snuggle bug. I'll greet you with my soft, chirpy meows and melt into your rms like butter. I'm affectionate and just a sturdy ball of floof who loves being loved. My sister, Skittles, is the quiter soul. She's cautious and shy, the kind of girl who believes in taking things slow. Camera's? Nope. Sudden Movements? Double nope. But if she's lounging and you gently reach out, she'll let you give her soft pets - and that's when you'll see the start of her gentle heart shining through Skittles is already coming out of her shell more each day and in a calm, patient home, she's sure to blossom further.

Miley
Female 10 months
DOGS - No KIDS - No CATS - Yes
If you're lucky you will see me delicately trying to hide in the cat lounge as I am still quite shy and timid. I need to trust my human and then I will open up and let you pet me. Once you glide your hand over me, you will see I am one of the softest kitties you will ever have the luck to feel - they should have called me velvet, my fur is sooo silky smooth. Even though I am quiet, I have been known to chase a feather on a stick or push a spring around. This play time will bring us closer together. I am still young so we can have a lifetime together - I am so worthy of your time and patience.

Smokie and Chynna
Male and Female 2.5 yrs
DOGS - Yes KIDS - No CATS - Yes
We're a pair of stunning lookers with the kind of lush coats you'll want to sink your fingers into (and yes, we approve...most of the time). Life for us is all about lounging in style, soaking up cuddles and keeping things laid-back. Smokie here - I'm the chill one. Recently, I found out I have asthma, but don't worry - the amazing humans are training me to use an inhaler like a pro. I'm smart, gentle and ready for love. My sassier sibling is Chynna. She meows for attention and purrs like crazy when she gets it…but when she's had enough? She'll politely (or not-so politely) let you know. A gals' gotta have boundaries! We're a bonded pair and the perfect mix of snuggles, personality and glam.

Tab & Pepper
Male 11months
DOGS - Maybe KIDS - Yes CATS - Yes
Please don't be alarmed by our size. We are, in fact, internally, just two tiny mice in very large, fluffy bodies. We're brothers, best friends and a bonded duo. At only a year old, we're already impressively big boys - but we're calm, laid back and exceptionally chill. Professional loungers, if you will. We take our relaxation very seriously, with occasional breaks for affection - because we are very into love and scritches. The more, the better. We can be a little shy at first, but give us a moment and you'll discover two of the sweetest, softest souls around. No chaos here - just quiet companionship, warm cuddles and a whole lot of gentle. If you home is missing a pair of over-sized, low-key cuddle experts..we're ready when you are.
