Wag on the Danforth Adopt-A-Thon

Join Ruth and friends on Saturday July 9th from 11am-4pm for Toronto Cat Rescue’s first adopt-a-thon with “Wag On The Danforth“!  Wag is a family-run business at 1918 Danforth, across from East Lynn Park, that carries a wide variety of all natural foods for cats, dogs, small animals and birds.

There will be a couple of adult cats and lots and lots of kittens waiting for their forever families to adopt them. Drop by and adopt your new best friend(s).  The cat rescue folks want you to know that when you adopt a kitty from Toronto Cat Rescue you save two lives; the one you adopt and the one you make room for.   The adoption fee is $175. This ensures that the cats that come into our care receive the medical attention they need, are spayed or neutered, vaccinated (and receive a rabies vaccination if age appropriate). Our fee also includes 6 weeks of free pet insurance.

 Toronto Cat Rescue is a no-kill, not for profit, 100% volunteer, registered charity.
