Meet Pudge
Pudge is a 5 months old male Domestic Shorthair/Mix cat who weighs 2 kilograms.
Hi, I’m Pudge!
I’m a 5-month-old spirit cat – a gentle soul who’s trying so hard to be the confident, loving cat I know I can be. The world still feels a little big and uncertain sometimes, but I’ve made real progress, and I’m ready to keep growing with the help of someone patient, kind, and understanding.
When I first arrived, I was timid and undersocialized – quick to hide and unsure about humans. I’m still on the shy side, but every day I’m learning that love, safety, and even a little fun can come from the people around me. I just need someone who’s willing to go at my pace, to teach me that trust is something safe to give.
I might spend my first days watching quietly from a cozy hidey spot, but don’t let that fool you – I want to be brave. I’m motivated by tasty wet food, Churu tubes, and wand toys, and those are the best ways to coax me out and help me feel safe. With each gentle interaction, I grow more curious, more playful, and more open.
I get along well with other cats and would likely thrive with a confident feline friend to show me the ropes. I’m still not a fan of being picked up just yet, but I enjoy calm companionship and being near gentle people who respect my boundaries.
Everyone who meets me says my fur feels like velvet – soft, sleek, and impossible not to pet (once I’m ready for that, of course). I’m really hoping to find someone who sees past my shyness and understands the reward of helping a quiet, sensitive soul come into his own.
If you believe in second chances, soft landings, and the magic of watching a scared little heart grow brave – I might just be the cat you’ve been waiting for.
My adoption fee is $185 and includes my spay/neuter, internal and external parasite treatments, up-to-date vaccinations, and an ID microchip!
Come visit me at the GTHS and speak with one of the amazing Adoption Counsellors-they’d love to help you learn more about me and how to support a spirit kitten like me. We’re open for adoptions every day from 12:00pm-4:00pm, and I can’t wait to start my journey toward finding a safe, loving home.
With cautious purrs and hopeful eyes,

Meet Annie
Annie is a 2 years old female Large Mixed Breed who weighs 33 kilograms.
Hi, I’m Annie – and if you’re patient, kind, and have a soft spot for shy dogs like me, I just might be your perfect match.
I’m a 2-year-old girl with the most gorgeous eyes you’ve ever seen – that’s what everyone tells me, anyway. I don’t really like the spotlight, but when you get to know me, you’ll see how much love I’ve been waiting to share.
When I first arrived at the shelter, I was scared – really scared. I didn’t know where I was, who to trust, or what was going to happen next. I just wanted to stay in one safe spot and be left alone. I didn’t mean to be grumpy; I was just overwhelmed. But the people here didn’t give up on me. They gave me time, space, and so much patience. And slowly… I started to trust. I started to bloom.
Now, with the people I know, I’m playful, affectionate, and even a little goofy. I love my walks and I’m told I do really well on a leash – no barking at people, bikes, or dogs, just enjoying the fresh air and keeping pace. I still have more to learn, but I’m trying my best every day.
I’ve even had some fun off-leash play with another dog (a polite boy), and we had a great time playing chase and bowing to each other. That said, I can get a bit protective of high-value treats and food if other dogs are nearby – I just want to keep my goodies safe. For now, I’d do best as the only pet in the home while I continue to build confidence and learn to share.
I don’t know how I feel about cats yet, and because I’m still learning that the world isn’t so scary, I’d do best in a calm home without young children. If you have respectful kids over 13, that might be okay – as long as they can understand I need time and patience.
What I really need is someone who sees me – not just the shy dog I was, but the loving companion I’m becoming. Someone who understands that progress isn’t always fast, but it’s worth every step. Someone who will celebrate the little victories with me and gently guide me when I get a bit unsure.
If you’re experienced with fearful dogs, know a bit about reading doggy body language, and believe in the power of positive reinforcement, I think we could be a great team.
Because October is Adopt a Shelter Dog Month, my adoption fee is has been reduced to $300 to help me find my forever home that much faster. My adoption fee includes my spay/neuter, up to date vaccinations, dewormer and a microchip. If you want to learn more about me, please come visit the GTHS and speak with one of the amazing Adoption Counsellors! The GTHS is open for adoptions from 12pm-4:00pm, every single day of the week and they would be thrilled to introduce you to me! I can’t wait to meet you and am looking forward to starting my new life with my new family!
I may always be a little cautious – but I promise you, once I trust you, you’ll have my whole heart.
