‼️We are accepting adoption applications for the following kittens who have just become adoption-ready!

Our warehouse Kittens, Glen - f, Glen Garry - m, Amy - f & Vince - m are waiting to meet you at Bosley's at the Comma in Vancouver at 3425 Fraser Street. These babies are part of a litter of seven and their mama urgently rescued by our team from a warehouse with dangerous living conditions. They are slightly shy but full of love and we expect them to continue blossoming in their forever homes. They are easy to hold and enjoy affection. 10-weeks-old.

Sleeping Beauty, Emma & Smokey are two tuxies and a grey baby, all female and they are waiting to meet you at Bosley's River District in Vancouver at 8515 River District Crossing. They are absolutely adorable and all very friendly and cuddly. 11-weeks-old.

Sebby & Ivy are absolute gems who are inseparabley bonded and 7-years-old. They were surrendered through no fault of their own and are the most solid, affectionate and quiet pair. This lovely duo are hanging out in the awesome adoption room at wonderful partner, Bosley's at Queensborough Landing, 805 Boyd Street, New Westminster. Meet them there ❤️

At our Adoption Centre - 3380 No 6 Rd, open Saturdays & Sundays for potential adopters:

Sundae is a stunning little girl who was surrendered by her former people through no fault of her own. She's loves to chat and play and enjoys human affection. She is still awaiting her pre-adoption exams at RAPS Animal Hospital, but we are accepting adoption applications. 9-weeks-old.

Doris, Dodd & Dolly
These teenagers, two female and one male, Dodd, are a little bit on the quieter side but very lovely nonetheless. Dodd is not as outgoing as his sisters but they all seek affection, have big purrs and will add so much love to their lucky adopters' homes.

🐈‍⬛ This sleek, panther-esque girl has finished raising the kittens she arrived with and is ready to find a loving home of her own. Jocelyn is incredibly sweet, adores human affection, and loves spending time with her people. While she's not a fan of other cats, she's more than happy to be the sole recipient of your attention and affection. We're looking for a home where she can reign as the one and only queen.

🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛ Our adoption policy is to adopt kittens in pairs whenever possible, as they benefit greatly from having a feline companion. We consider single-kitten adoptions for homes that already have a compatible cat or kitten.

📋 We encourage you to complete an Adoption Application first to get the ball rolling. Our staff reviews adoption applications with reference checks and contacts those who sound like they will be a great fit.

Sponsor Me Wednesday - Vinnie 🤍

Vinnie is a solid white presence in the back of the New Aids pen at the sanctuary. He came into our care from our rescue partners in Kamloops where we think he was the dominant tomcat in a colony.
Initially, he was fearful with us, as a new cat so often is. But steady gentle encounters with volunteers gave him confidence and now that he’s not driven by his hormones, he has made good friends with other cats. He likes his comfort, whether snuggled in a bed, or blissed out in the sunshine and he now welcomes attention from visitors and volunteers, offering his presence as a very chonky lap-cat

🗓️ Become a Monthly RAPS Cat Sanctuary Sponsor for $25 per month to help us provide beautiful lives for our unadoptable cats who call the Sanctuary home for life:
