Spot's Story

In looks, Spot stands out from the crowd—he’s a large handsome boy with glossy black fur and bright green eyes who moves with the fluid grace of a panther. But Spot’s affectionate and sweet-natured personality is more subtle and emerges gradually as you gain his trust. He’s friendly and enjoys pets and chin rubs but is still a bit wary of people. If you approach quickly, he will instinctively shy away, but once he decides he’s safe, he will come up to you looking to play. And playing is a great way to connect—Spot loves any form of play, whether it’s chasing balls, pouncing on stuffed toys, leaping after wand toys or hunting the elusive red laser dot. <br/><br/>Spot came from a colony and finds comfort in feline companionship. He enjoys snuggling up with a buddy for a nap and is unfazed when a herd of kittens swarms into his cage for a visit. Because of this, Spot should go to a home with another friendly cat. <br/><br/>Spot will do best in a quiet setting without young children and with people who will take a patient approach to building his trust. Your efforts will be well rewarded—beneath that reserved exterior is a relaxed, easy-going and lovable guy who will make an affectionate and engaging companion. <br/><br/>If you are interested in adoption, you can meet Spot at the West Scarborough PetSmart at 2050 Eglinton Ave. E. at Warden Ave. If you would like to make Spot part of your family, please complete our online application found at: https://www.avacats.org/adoption-application-form.<br/><br/>Our adoption fees cover vetting and include spay/neuter, first-round of age-appropriate vaccines (initial FVRCP and rabies) at the time of adoption, flea treatment, deworming and microchipping.<br/><br/>Adoption fees are $250 for each adult cat 1 year or older. Please note that fees may apply for additional required vaccinations (at $75 per booster) due prior to adoption. Total adoption fees will be confirmed by the AVA Adoption Coordinator.
