Bourbon

Bourbon’s story is one of quiet strength, love, and a little bit of luck. Once an abandoned pet in a South Shore colony where several young cats had been left behind, Bourbon did everything she could to protect her kittens. Thankfully, a kind man in the neighborhood made sure she and her babies had food and safety until help arrived.<br/><br/>Now safe indoors with her wonderful foster family in Châteauguay, Bourbon is finally able to rest — and she’s showing just how special she is. Tame, gentle, and incredibly affectionate, she adores people and bonds quickly with anyone who shows her love. She purrs when spoken to, enjoys being brushed, and is happiest relaxing near her humans, radiating calm and gratitude.<br/><br/>Bourbon is still at the tail end of nursing her kittens, so some of her photos show her during that stage — she was such a devoted mom that it only felt right to capture her that way. Her babies are growing fast, and soon it will be her turn to be the one cared for and cherished.<br/><br/>At around two years old, Bourbon is a loving and intelligent cat who’s ready for her next chapter — one filled with warmth, safety, and affection.<br/><br/>Bourbon will come fully vetted — including deworming, defleaing, vaccines, FIV/FeLV testing, and sterilization — all included in her $300 adoption fee.<br/><br/>Rescue origin: South Shore abandoned colony<br/>Currently in foster care: Châteauguay<br/>Contact: Susan Mackasey for more information or to arrange a meet-and-greet.<br/><br/><br/><br/>L’histoire de Bourbon est remplie de courage, d’amour… et d’un peu de chance. Ancienne chatte domestique abandonnée dans une colonie sur la Rive-Sud, elle a fait tout ce qu’elle pouvait pour protéger ses chatons. Heureusement, un homme bienveillant du quartier a pris soin d’elle et de ses bébés, leur offrant nourriture et sécurité jusqu’à l’arrivée du sauvetage.<br/><br/>Aujourd’hui, bien au chaud dans sa famille d’accueil à Châteauguay, Bourbon peut enfin se détendre et montrer toute sa douceur. Très apprivoisée, calme et extrêmement affectueuse, elle adore la compagnie humaine, se laisse caresser, et ronronne de bonheur dès qu’on lui parle.<br/><br/>Elle est encore à la fin de la période d’allaitement, donc certaines photos la montrent à cette étape — une maman dévouée qu’on voulait capturer dans toute sa tendresse. Ses bébés grandissent vite, et ce sera bientôt à son tour de recevoir tout l’amour et les soins qu’elle mérite.<br/><br/>Âgée d’environ deux ans, Bourbon est une chatte tendre, intelligente et reconnaissante, prête à vivre une nouvelle vie pleine de confort et d’amour.<br/><br/>Bourbon sera entièrement soignée avant son adoption — vermifugation, traitement antipuces, vaccins, test FIV/FeLV et stérilisation — le tout inclus dans ses frais d’adoption de 300 $.<br/><br/>Origine du sauvetage : Colonie abandonnée de la Rive-Sud<br/>Présentement en famille d’accueil : Châteauguay
