Alfie & Belle's Story

Alfie (m) and Belle (f) are a bonded pair looking for a patient adopter to help them grow and flourish in a loving home. Though they’re shy and reserved at first, with time, patience, and plenty of positive reinforcement, they’ll start to come out of their shells. Food and play are great ways to build trust with these two—especially when you offer them their favorite churu treats, which they adore! They’re also big fans of catnip toys, laser pointers, and wand toys. A cat tree is a must-have in their new home—it’s where they’ll feel safe and secure while watching the world from above. Alfie and Belle require a dedicated and patient adopter willing to continue their socialization and are best suited to an adult-only home with a calm and quiet environment. The Avery Foundation is a foster-based and volunteer-run rescue. Every TAF rescue cat is vet checked, vaccinated, treated for parasites, spay/neutered, microchipped and receive any necessary additional medical care. Our adoption process involves an application, reference check, interview, and home visit prior to placement. From the time we receive your application through the screening process adoptions can take a couple weeks. We thank everyone who takes the time to apply but only those who best fit the cat’s requirements will be contacted. If you’re interested in adopting, please apply online at: https://www.theaveryfoundation.ca/adoption/adoption-application/cats/

The Avery Foundation's Adoption Policy

Our adoption process has several steps: Application: The first step in the application process is to fill out an online adoption application. Reference Check: We will contact the veterinary and personal references that have been provided. Animal Meet & Greet: If approved for the next step, The Avery Foundation coordinates a meet-and-greet with the animal and the applicant in order to familiarize themselves with each other and see if it’s an appropriate match. This takes place at the foster home. After the meet-and-greet is finished, we will touch base with the foster home and discuss how the meeting went. If there were concerns, a member of the Avery team will contact the family to notify them and discuss. Home Visit: If after the meet & greet the adopter is interested in pursuing the adoption and are found to be a good match, we will coordinate a date and time to perform a home visit and interview. This takes place in the applicant’s home. This step is mandatory to ensure that the home is safe for the animal, and the adoption process cannot be complete without doing so. Contract Signing: If there are no concerns that arise during the home visit, at the end of it we will review and sign the adoption contract. By signing this contract, the family is agreeing to our terms and conditions. If we feel the family is no longer suitable for the animal, we do have the right to reject an application at this point in the process. Animal Transferred to Adoptive Home: The adoption fee is to be paid by e-transfer before pickup. Once received, pickup arrangements can be made with the foster. The adopter will need to bring a cat carrier with them for transport home.
